Our unique approach to patient treatment
At Colgan Osteopathy we aim to provide you with the best and effective treatments. Experience has shown that our “combined treatments”, such as Osteopathy, Physiotherapy, Medical Acupuncture and TCM, improve patient treatment outcomes and healing times. Our unique approach to patient’s care has enabled us to treat many local patients successfully. Effective Dual Approach is improving healing times, reducing pain and providing focused pain relief. Also, the most crucial element is that most patients feel improvement after their first consultation and treatment.
Our hands-on treatments are individually tailored for you
At Colgan Osteopathy all treatment programmes are created individually for each person. By working this way, patients improve quickly, and we feel one of the reasons people recommend us.
Long-term health solutions that work
We don’t want you to spend your life taking painkillers or on someone’s treatment table. Providing patients with long-term health solutions is essential. This reduces the risk of the injury happening over and over again.
High standards of care at Colgan Osteopathy
We will provide you with a high standard of care to help you achieve your individual needs and goals. A satisfied patient is at the heart of everything we do today.
We work with the following health insurance companies
Patients with cashback schemes:
If you have cover with a private cash-back health scheme (e.g. SimplyHealth, Westfield Health, Medicash and Health Shield) you will need to pay for each treatment and claim back the cost yourself. A receipt will be provided for this purpose. To avoid disappointment, please check with your insurer before receiving treatment that the therapy is covered by your scheme. However we are not liable for, and will not reimburse you for any shortfall in what your insurer subsequently reimburses you.

How do Osteopaths treat?
Numerous osteopathic treatments can be utilised in practice, tailored to suit each patient. These can vary from gentle soft tissue massage, joint articulation, dry needling to more direct structural manipulations. This takes into account your age, gender, general health, medication, fitness and the diagnosis made.
Certain exercises may also be advised and explained throughout the consultation to aid the treatment’s efficiency and improve long-term posture.
What should I expect at Osteopath on my first consultation?
At the initial consultation, you will be asked a series of questions regarding your presenting ailment, general health and personal/ family medical background.
A full examination will also be carried out to assess your physical condition, which may involve being asked to dress down to your underwear. This helps to provide a more detailed screen of your standing/sitting posture, palpation of different muscle groups, and assessing various joints’ mobility. This enables osteopaths to formulate the correct diagnosis.
You will then generally be asked to remove some of your clothes, normally down to your undergarments, so it is best to wear something suitably comfortable and modest.
Can I bring a friend or relative?
You are welcome to bring a friend or relative into the consultation room. You may also stop the consultation or treatment at any point. Children under the age of 16, who are receiving treatment, must be accompanied by a parent/guardian at all times.
How long will my treatment be, and how many will I need?
The initial consultation usually lasts between 45 minutes– 1 hour, whilst follow-up treatments are normally 30 minutes. Patients commonly require 2 – 6 sessions, but some decide that they would like to have periodic preventative treatments to avoid recurring problems.
