TO THE DADS!
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!
Today is about you, whether you are near or far (most the Bearsden Osteopaths dads are in the Southern Hemisphere) You are the real life hero’s who keep it together, have dad jokes on tap, are endlessly patient, and carry the weight of the world on their shoulders (or at least the groceries).
We hope you are being spoilt today - whether it be breakfast in bed, being treated to an osteopathy appointment (yes we’re open) or having quiet time on the golf course.

Myth busting osteopathy 🙌🏻
Here is some myths and truths about osteopathy!
Myth 1 - we only treat backs! FALSE - we treat a lot of back pain but when I look at our patients in clinic at the moment I think only about half of them at the moment are seeing us for back pain. We are also treating a lot of pelvic girdle pain, headaches, concussion, tendonopathies (proximal hamstring, Achilles, tennis and golfers elbow) sports injuries, chronic pain syndromes - and that’s not to mention our babies and young people clinics!
Myth 2 - osteopathy is not a recognised medical profession! FALSE - in the UK osteopathy is a recognised medical profession. All practitioners working as osteopaths in the UK are registered with the General Osteopathic Council who regulate the profession ensuring a high standard of practice. Additional we work in collaboration with GPs, orthopaedic consultants, midwives, rheumatologists, neurologists spinal consultants and physiotherapists to ensure the best outcome for all our patients.

Myth 3 - Osteopaths only use hands on treatment. FALSE! Osteopathy is a system or assessment, diagnosis and treatment. Firstly is a patient is not safe to treat for what ever reason we won’t treat them (thinking DVTs and a variety of other things that would require further investigation). For those patients who are safe to treat we mostly always do hand on treatment but also provide exercises, nutritional advice, and lifestyle advice.

Myth 4 - only adults can see osteopaths. FALSE - one of our busiest branches of our clinic is our babies and children clinic. We work with young athletes for performance optimisation and injury prevention, sports injuries (we’ve mostly suffered them outsides in our younger days). Babies for strains resulting from birth that can lead to unsettledness.

Myth 5 - You need a referral to see an osteopath! FALSE! You can call or email our incredible team and we will get you in ASAP with one of our osteopaths to get you moving, functioning and thriving!
