How Osteopathy Differs from Physiotherapy and Massage Therapy
Understanding the unique role of each approach

Osteopathy
Osteopathy takes a whole-body perspective, addressing the interconnected systems of bones, muscles, joints, and the nervous system. Treatments focus on restoring alignment, improving joint mechanics, and supporting circulation and nervous system regulation. Using gentle, non-invasive techniques, osteopathy helps correct structural imbalances that contribute to pain, stiffness, and dysfunction, often creating lasting changes in movement and wellbeing.

Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is primarily rehabilitation-focused, designed to restore strength, mobility, and function after injury, surgery, or chronic conditions. It often combines manual therapy with exercise programs, mobility drills, and equipment-based interventions. Physiotherapy is goal-driven and typically emphasizes measurable recovery outcomes, such as regaining range of motion, rebuilding muscle, and returning to sports or daily activities safely.

Massage Therapy (RMT)
Massage therapy works directly on soft tissues — muscles, tendons, and fascia — to release tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation. It is often used for short-term relief from muscle soreness, stress, or localized pain. While massage can improve comfort and blood flow, it doesn’t typically address joint mechanics, postural issues, or nervous system regulation the way osteopathy or physiotherapy does.
