TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF TREATMENT

Otley Osteopaths will endeavour to fulfil your treatment expectations, but We reserve the right to choose techniques which We consider safe for you and/or refer you to your own GP for medical investigations before continuing your treatment plan. 

Consultation time slots are approximately 45 minutes for initial consultations and 30 minutes for returning patients. These are consultations 'time slots', not treatment length. It is at the Osteopath's discretion to extend the treatment time or to shorten the session if required for the patient’s safety and wellbeing. 

It may be necessary to have more than one treatment before your problem is resolved. The Osteopath will review your progress at each subsequent visit and seek your consent to any changes to your treatment plan. 

Due to the physical nature of the treatment, it is not unusual to feel sore or stiff in the first 24-48 hours after treatment. If you have any concerns, it is important to contact the Osteopath and ask their advice.

Payment upon completion of a consultation may be required, even if no treatment has been undertaken due to the outcome of our case history and examination.
