Osteo vs physio: what’s the difference?
Firstly, the greatest differences are in the ideology and training for each therapy. However, there are now many similarities between the two.
The goal of both treatments is the same, but the overall ‘style’ is different. Therefore ultimately when selecting treatment, it’s really down to personal preference.
If you have a niggle or pain it’s best to see someone sooner rather than later and avoid deterioration. Moreover, with both physio and osteo available, you can always book in for a free consultation for each and we can help you to determine which treatment style would suit you best.
