The Difference Between Osteopathy and Physiotherapy
While both osteopaths and physiotherapists treat musculoskeletal conditions, their approaches and philosophies differ in several ways. Understanding these differences can help you determine which treatment best suits your needs.
Osteopathy: A Holistic Approach
Osteopathy is a manual therapy that focuses on the relationship between the body’s structure and function. Osteopaths assess the body as a whole, considering how different systems interact and influence each other. At Solihull osteopathic practice, our practitioners will use techniques that primarily involve hands-on manipulation, including:
- Soft tissue massage
- Joint mobilisation
- Stretching and myofascial release
- Cranial osteopathy (a gentle approach for certain conditions)
Osteopathy is particularly beneficial if…
- You have general musculoskeletal discomfort, stiffness, or tension that doesn’t seem tied to a specific injury.
- You feel like your body is “out of balance” and could benefit from hands-on techniques to improve circulation and alignment.
- You suffer from chronic aches and pains that may be caused by posture, stress, or tension in the body
Physiotherapy: Targeted Rehabilitation
Physiotherapy, on the other hand, focuses on diagnosing and rehabilitating injuries and movement disorders. Our qualified physiotherapist in Solihull uses evidence-based techniques designed to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve physical function. Our physiotherapist will use treatments that often include:
- Exercise prescription
- Manual therapy
- Postural correction
Physiotherapy is ideal if…
- You have an injury (like a sprain, strain, or post-surgery recovery) and need targeted rehab.
- You’re dealing with ongoing pain related to movement, such as knee pain when running or back pain when sitting.
- You need exercises and movement-based therapy to regain strength, flexibility, and function.
- You have a sports-related issue and want a structured plan for recovery or injury prevention.
