Personal Injury Claims

Osteopaths are trained to deal with trauma and often see victims of trauma especially the type of cases that solicitors often deal with in terms of personal injury.

OSTEOPATHS TREAT CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE BODY RANGING FROM NECK, BACK AND SPINAL PROBLEMS BUT ALSO PERIPHERAL JOINT CONDITIONS. IN OTHER WORDS, ALL OF THE MECHANICAL AND STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS OF THE BODY. THIS PUTS OSTEOPATHS IN A UNIQUE POSITION TO HELP SOLICITORS WITH THE GROWING NUMBER OF PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS AS EXPERT WITNESSES AND OFFERING REHABILITATION ACCIDENT TRAUMAS.

The osteopathic approach is geared towards the mechanics of the human body. As practitioners we have particular skills in taking a thorough and extensive medical history, we use our highly developed sense of touch to identify points of weakness. This is often of special benefit to lawyers handling whiplash and similar types of claims because soft tissue trauma does not show clearly on x-rays.

WE RECEIVE REGULAR WORK FROM SOLICITORS AND INSURANCE COMPANIES SUCH AS INJURY QED AND PROVIDE AN EXCELLENT SERVICE AT COMPETITIVE PRICES. WE HAVE EXCELLENT FACILITIES WHERE MOST OF OUR PATIENTS CAN BE SEEN ON THE SAME DAY IF NECESSARY.
