Osteopaths take into account not only physical symptoms but also the patient’s lifestyle and attitudes, and his or her overall health, effectively treating the patient as a whole. Physical, environmental and stress factors are considered simultaneously, rather than as a collection of body systems which are usually treated individually and isolation from each other by general medical practice.
Osteopathy is a 'hands on' manual therapy and does not simply look at symptoms which present themselves as these are often to be found to be hiding the underlying cause. By paying attention to the significance of any alteration in structure or function (the joints, muscles, ligaments, bones and connective tissue), an osteopath is able to interpret whole patterns of aches, pains and general health problems. Alteration in the structure of the body leads to reduced or impaired function in its organs and tissues. Compensation gradually builds up until the body is unable to accommodate more change, at which time it may break down at the weakest part even after something quite trivial. Headaches, for example, the final symptom of lower back or foot-related problems which patients may be unaware of. Osteopathic patients benefit from the underlying cause of the problem being dealt with, not a temporary masking symptoms when a drug is taken as advocated in other areas of medicine.
Osteopathic treatment can improve many parts of the body by restoring normal movement in areas that have become dysfunctional, which allows the restoration of normal function and enables the tissues to repair themselves more naturally. Whilst considering immediate pain relief as important, the aim of osteopathy is to get patients well and keep them well. Therefore depending on the needs of the patient, treatment may be used in conjunction with other accepted methods such as medication, surgery, and X-ray treatments.
