When is it worth consulting an osteopath?
The earlier you see an osteopath, the better. The first session of osteopathic treatment is recommended for a newborn baby in the first few days of life, to allow the child’s body to develop in the right way, eliminating micro-traumas during childbirth. And later on, osteopathic correction is important at every stage of a person’s life. At school age, it gives the opportunity to form correct posture and positively influences the strengthening of the child’s body in general. For adults, osteopathy is a method for treating existing disorders and preventing them. To achieve positive results and to prevent undesirable effects after treatment, it is important to clearly understand what is the difference between a true osteopath and an amateur doctor, because osteopathy is only developing now in Kyiv and Ukraine. The essential thing is a doctor’s higher medical education and specialization in osteopathy.
