Osteopathic Initial Assessment

Osteopathy is a gentle and safe manual therapy that is centered around treating the whole person. During your initial assessment, your osteopathic manual practitioner will listen to your concerns and ask questions related to your medical history. Details of your symptoms will be recorded and this information will help your practitioner develop a personalized treatment plan. With the time remaining, an assessment and treatment will be completed. If necessary, a follow up appointment will be scheduled.

​

See "What is Osteopathy" to learn more about the manual therapy.

Osteopathic Follow Up Treatment

A follow up appointment is scheduled two to four weeks from your initial assessment. Your osteopathic manual practitioner will inquire about any changes in your symptoms, such as your pain and/or mobility. To measure physical changes a reassessment is be conducted. The session is concluded with manual therapy techniques and recommendations and/or education for home care.

Paediatric Osteopathic Treatment

Paediatric osteopathy refers to the osteopathy that focuses exclusively on babies and children twelve years or age and under. Babies and children have different anatomical structures which are constantly shifting and changing as they grow. These constant changes may result in growing pains and physical discomfort. Additionally, difficulties with pregnancy and/or labour may also contribute to problems.

​

Similarly to an adult osteopathic initial assessment and treatment, a health history will be taken of your child and a very gentle physical exam will be performed. The treatment will comprise of gentle, therapeutic movements and stretches to help alleviate your child's symptoms.

Animal Osteopathy

Animal osteopathy refers to osteopathy that focuses on animals, most commonly dogs and horses, as well as small companion animals.  Gentle hands on therapy is used to work with the animal’s body to facilitate healing and pain management. This is accomplished through maintaining proper neuromuscular function and improving circulation. Osteopathic manual therapy is beneficial for animals to help decrease recovery time from surgical interventions, accidents or injuries along with being a preventative healthcare to reduce the risk of injury. Furthermore, animal osteopathy is beneficial as a part of the continued care plan for chronic conditions or senior animals.

​

Similarly to an human osteopathic initial assessment and treatment, a health history will be taken of your animal and a gentle physical exam will be performed. The treatment will comprise of therapeutic movements and stretches.
