Osteopathy

Our osteopathy department is the first fully integrated medical department of its kind in the Gulf region. It is a pioneer in the growing field of functional, holistic and preventative medicine.

  • What is osteopathy?

    • Osteopathy is a system of holistic medicine that is used to diagnose, treat and prevent a wide range of health problems. It is a drug-free non-invasive manual medicine that focuses on total body health. Treatments involve manipulation and massage of the skeleton and muscles. It is a gentle, effective and “hands-on” approach to healthcare, based on the principle that the way your body moves influences how it functions.

  • Benefits of osteopathy

    • The benefits of osteopathy are the improvement in mobility and structural stability of the body’s musculoskeletal framework. The aim is to positively affect systems of the body including the circulatory, lymphatic and nervous systems. Further advantages include pain relief and management in chronic illness, injury prevention and relaxation.

  • How do I visit an appointment with an osteopath?

    • Most patients’ visit an osteopath through their own choice and this requires payment up front. However, for those who want to use insurance, some companies require a referral by a medical doctor first before seeking osteopathic treatment. Some companies allow direct billing where others use reimbursement. The insurance coverage of osteopathy varies from company to company and is also dependent on the individual’s plan. It is advised for individuals to check their status with their insurance company.

  • What the difference is between an osteopath, chiropractor and physiotherapist?

    • All three professions have a similar medical training but vary in professional training and emphasis during treatment. Physiotherapists may tend to focus on exercise and chiropractors may tend to focus on joint manipulation of the spine. Whereas osteopaths use exercise, joint manipulation, movement and soft tissue massage as part of an integrated and therapeutic approach.

  • What osteopathy treats?

    • Osteopathic treatment is for everyone from young to old, to all family members and can help with a wide and varied range of conditions including:

      • Back / Neck / Shoulder Pain
      • Pelvis, hip & leg problems
      • Headaches / Migraines coming from the neck
      • Joint Pain
      • Sports Injuries
      • Pregnancy Related Problems
      • Trapped Nerves / Sciatica / Disc problems
      • Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)
      • Stress Related problems & whiplash injury
      • Poor posture joint stiffness & Restricted mobility
      • And almost any pain involving your body structure


By definition:

'Osteopathy is a way of detecting and treating damaged parts of the body such as muscles, ligaments, nerves and joints. When the body is balanced and efficient, just like a well tuned engine, it will function with the minimum of wear and tear, leaving more energy for living.' General Osteopathic Council – UK (UK medical regulatory body for osteopaths) Why choose osteopathy at the German Orthopedic Hospital Bahrain?

  • It is world leading in its operation and delivery, where the osteopathy department is fully incorporated with the Hospital Information System for easy patient referrals and consequently a genuine illustration of multi-disciplinary and integrative healthcare.
  • Our practitioners are trained at Europe’s oldest and largest school of osteopathy (British School of Osteopathy in London, U.K.) with a high clinical, medical focus and world-class resources.
  • Practitioners are highly skilled and consult worldwide for Bahraini and British Sport teams: and are internationally qualified with medical regulatory bodies in Bahrain and U.K.
  • The natures of holistic methods used means treatments are normally more detailed and longer in duration than that of other healthcare interventions.
