With this in mind & for your own comfort, it is advisable to wear appropriate underwear and bring along a pair of shorts & a vest top. You will be asked to perform a series of basic movements to assess your range of movement, then Rayner will palpate (feel) the area in order to identify tight muscles, heat, swelling & tenderness. More specific tests may be required to formulate a diagnosis. As primary health care practitioners, osteopaths are trained to screen for general medical conditions and refer to other health care providers (GP, A&E, etc) when necessary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1588326882009-7ZQT3P6MG8LZIDRNVUZV/DSC_0338.JPG Your First Visit - TREATMENT Once testing has determined that osteopathic treatment is suitable, Rayner will explain her diagnosis & the treatment plan she feels would benefit you most, with alternative options for anything you are not comfortable with, which may include Osteopathic techniques (ie manipulation, articulation or craniosacral therapy), dry needling (acupuncture), dry cupping or massage. She will then ask for your consent to continue. Your comfort is paramount throughout your time at Wilding Osteopathy, so please say if you have changed your mind about a treatment method, have any questions or are even just feeling a little chilly! Treatment should not be painful, therefore please feel free at any time to comment if you are in any way uncomfortable or in pain. Please note, the amount of treatment performed at the initial consultation depends on the complexity of your individual case & the number of tests required to determine a diagnosis. Should any contraindications or medical reason be found not to treat, this will be discussed clearly with you and you will be referred to the relevant health care provider. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1588325920530-7Q9IGYWQX32T8UYFPSX1/DSC_0269.JPG Your First Visit CASE HISTORY In order to get to know you and understand your presenting complaint, a thorough case history will be taken. Rayner will discuss the problem with you in depth & ask questions that will help to reach a diagnosis. Examples of questions that may be asked are ‘what makes the problem better/worse?’, 'do you experience any pins & needles or numbness?' and ‘is there a daily pattern?’ http://www.raynerwildingosteopathy.com/subsequent-treatments daily 0.75 2020-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1588330773478-LXU3RWPQZOTM06DCS625/DSC_0228.JPG Subsequent Treatments - SUBSEQUENT SESSIONS Subsequent sessions are 30-minutes in length and treatment focused. Tests will be performed at the beginning to monitor your progress after a brief chat to see how you've been feeling since the previous session. Patients often ask, ‘How many treatments will I need?’ Each individual patient’s body responds differently to manual therapy, and so a time scale is difficult to predetermine. The number of sessions required depends on a variety of factors, including the nature of the complaint, how long it has been present and the willingness of the patient to embrace advised exercises & rest. Patients with on-going issues caused by lifestyle & work habits, such as multi-screen desk set ups, manual handling, breast feeding and sports to name but a few, often opt for maintenance appointments every 6-8 weeks but this is part of a long-term management plan decided as part of a Patient-Practioner partnership. http://www.raynerwildingosteopathy.com/home daily 1.0 2025-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1589482814958-7NVVVFD9FJ4NUKTPOF3S/Rayner+Wilding+I%27m+Registered+Mark+88792.png HOME https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1486242298569-G2KEQLYKB68M9BDTRCTY/image.png HOME http://www.raynerwildingosteopathy.com/about-the-osteopath daily 0.75 2025-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1588772979053-RKB5PFVSOWIDEQ0BB4PJ/Rayner+Wilding+I%27m+Registered+Mark+88792.png About the Osteopath https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1497482113010-KN8NNJBCZ7VOGBPM79TD/DSC_0445.JPG About the Osteopath http://www.raynerwildingosteopathy.com/treatments-and-prices daily 0.75 2025-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53abf176e4b0d980731bfcd3/1588184515237-CMO1CGCPU5ODXO3XP7E6/DSC_0199.jpg TREATMENTS & PRICES NEW PATIENT CONSULTATION Case History, Examination & Treatment* - Up to 1 Hour - £60 In depth case history - ‘getting to know you’ style consultation Here we discuss your signs, symptoms and medical history Osteopathic assessment - assessment of posture & function including orthopaedic assessments Explanation of findings, diagnosis and treatment prescribed Once you’re happy to proceed, treatment begins & home advice is given Follow-up Sessions - 30 Minutes - £45 Beginning with a debrief of how you have been since our last meeting, we reassess, confirm our plan for the session and commence treatment with your consent. * Treatment given only if deemed safe with no contraindications PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE Many Private Health Insurance and Cash Back policies, such as provide cover for Osteopathic treatment.
