Practice Management

Michelle Scott-Lea and Gill Spicker run the administration of the practice and will ensure your first contact with us is friendly, informative and professional.

What to expect from your first Consultation

The first consultation will take between 45 minutes and an hour. The osteopath will want to know what type of problem you are experiencing and a thorough history will be taken. This will include your general health, previous illnesses, your lifestyle and family medical history. They will then want to conduct a physical examination and for this it may be necessary to undress down to your underwear. You will normally be taken through a range of movements and a detailed examination of joint function and individual tissues will be performed. More specific clinical tests may also be done. After the examination the osteopath will explain the findings and, if appropriate, a suitable course of treatment will be prescribed.

Sometimes additional investigations or tests may be required, e.g. urine or blood tests or X-rays. An appropriate referral can be made for this
