What does an osteopath do?
Osteopaths are registered allied health practitioners who assess and manage musculoskeletal complaints. Treatment can include manual therapy, exercise and practical advice, depending on your assessment and goals.
Will I receive treatment at my first visit?
Often, yes, when appropriate. Your osteopath will first take a history and assess your symptoms. They'll explain the findings and discuss your options before treatment begins.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Comfortable clothing you can move in is best. Bring any relevant scans, reports or referral information if you have them.
Can I claim osteopathy through private health?
Many extras policies include osteopathy, but rebates depend on your insurer and level of cover. Check your policy for eligibility. Eligible Medicare-funded allied health visits require an appropriate GP plan and referral.
Is osteopathy just for back pain?
No. Osteopaths assess a range of musculoskeletal issues, including neck, shoulder, hip and sports-related complaints. We'll explain whether osteopathic care is suitable for your particular presentation.
