Differences Between Osteopathy, Chiropractic, and Physiotherapy
Choosing between osteopathy, chiropractic, and physiotherapy for musculoskeletal pain can be challenging. Each therapy offers unique approaches: Osteopathy takes a holistic view, focusing on the body's interconnected systems and natural healing through manual techniques. Chiropractic care emphasizes spinal alignment to improve nervous system function, primarily using spinal adjustments. Physiotherapy aims to restore physical function with evidence-based exercises, manual therapy, and rehabilitation techniques. Understanding these differences helps you select the most suitable treatment for your needs. Consulting a healthcare professional can guide you toward the best approach for achieving pain relief and better overall health.
