Our patient of the month is Martin who sees Suzanna in Tisbury... 

Where is the pain?
The pain was originally in my knees and, as I am lucky enough to have the clinic in my village, I came along to see Suzanna. Not only for my knees but for a general check up too.

What caused the pain?
We don’t really know, but probably general wear and tear and also a loss of muscle condition.

What made you decide to seek help from Osteopathy in particular?
Not Just Backs has been in the village for many years and it seemed a good place to come and be seen. To get advice so I could do the best for myself and to keep things moving as they should do. I wanted to be able to help myself.

How did the Osteopath treat you?
Suzanna treated me with gentle manipulation; there was no discomfort or pain.  I do remember feeling almost instant relief which was wonderful. She sees me now on a regular 6-week basis to keep me in good condition. I have exercises to do, and I know that she is on hand sooner if I need to be seen earlier or have a new problem.
 
Has the Osteopath helped you in any other way?
Yes, she has. She has given me a huge amount of self confidence in keeping moving and walking properly. It’s a friendly practice - in the heart of the village - and I enjoy my sessions.
 
Did the Osteopath recommend any treatment from a different aspect?
Not really, other than keep moving and always bring any new niggles to her attention when we meet up. 
 
What was the most beneficial aspect of your treatment?
I find my sessions very relaxing. There is no pain and I always leave with a spring in my step and would highly recommend it to people of all ages!
