What Is Osteopathy? A Gentle Guide for First-Timers

New to Osteopathy? You’re in Gentle, Experienced Hands.

Hi, I’m Dr. Romesh, founder of Healing Hands Healthcare. If you’re here, you’re likely curious—or maybe even a little nervous—about what osteopathy is and whether it’s right for you. That’s completely normal. Every week, we meet first-time clients who are exploring new options for healing after years of living with pain, stress, or imbalance.

At Healing Hands, we don’t rush. We listen. And we treat you as a whole person—not just your symptoms. I am one Best and renowned due to my skill, passion and dedication to you. Sadly this is getting harder and harder to find.

What Is Osteopathy?

Think of me like your Mechanic or Engineer for your body. I look at your body like a machine, taking into consideration everything that can be related to you and your issue. From joints, muscles, nerves, circulation, neural, visceral and even your external environment and emotional state interactions. I look at your body and your whole life together, seeing what things are connected and what is the root cause of your issues.

Osteopathy originated from Surgeons in the US, therefore our case histories and examinations a very thorough.

Our treatment and management is then based on our findings. We not only tell you what we can do to help you, but what further tests, scans and who else may need to be apart of the treatment to get the best outcome.

The Actual treatment is hands on. I address all the issues relating to your problem and look to enhance the body in the way it is working so that it can heal, repair and perform more efficiently. The results reduces your pains and aches and you feel lighter and freer.

It’s based on the principle that the body works as one integrated system—muscles, joints, nerves, circulation, emotions, and even lifestyle all affect how you feel.

We focus on:

  • Releasing tension
  • Improving mobility and posture
  • Supporting your body’s natural ability to heal itself

It’s not about “cracking bones.” It’s about listening—to your body, your history, and your goals.

As I often tell my clients, I’m not here to “fix” you—I’m here to help your body remember how to heal.

What to Expect at Your First Appointment

Your first visit starts with a relaxed, honest and often deep conversation.

We’ll talk about and go through a detailed Medical History. This is most likely to be one of the most important things we do in the first treatment. This case history is something that you have rarely experienced. With this case history we are able to figure things out that people have been trying to work out for years. You will well and truely know your direction after this.

After this comes examinations. These examinations can range from specialist testing to medical screening, and body scanning. With these tests, we are able to determine and help confirm whats happening with you.

In terms of dress, it is whatever you are comfortable with. We may need you to be in shorts or hospital gowns. But if you are not comfortable with anything, we will work with you.

Then we’ll do a movement assessment, physical examination, and gentle testing to understand what’s going on beneath the surface.

You’ll stay fully clothed (just remove shoes or a light layer if necessary), and nothing will be done without your full understanding and consent. You’ll feel safe, in control, and heard.

My goal is that you leave feeling lighter, clearer, and cared for—not overwhelmed.
