Osteopathy and chiropractor

[TransvisionTramp]

Hi there
Does anyone have any experience of these?
I'm suffering a bit with my back. Nothing serious, just sitting at a desk all day (am going to buy a stand up desk soon), crap posture, having children and carrying DD2 occasionally (she's almost 4 so not very often).

What's best or is there no difference?
thanks in advance.

Hi! I've been to both and I personally find the osteo much more gentle in their technique. The chiropractor did a lot more cracking!

Chiros deal with bones, osteopaths with soft tissue/muscles. So it depends if your problem is a soft tissue or a skeletal one. What is your sense of it?

Thanks for replying, sorry for my radio silence - my evening was taken up by two DDs being awake in tandem until it was my bedtime.

I think it's more muscular. Aching back from bad posture, sitting down at a desk all day, stiff as a board when waking up.

So all that adds up to Osteopath to me.
Thanks

Worth a try! Hope you get some relief

Thank you.
Annoyingly there's a Chiropractor in the small(ish) village where I live but I'll have to travel to a nearby town for an Osteopath. Hence my post.

Osteo definitely !!

Osteo is great, also do crack back etc.

Good osteopaths are fab

That's settled then. Oesteopath it is.
Just need to find the time!
Thanks everyone. Really appreciate your help
