Osteopaths & Chiropractors: frequently asked questions
What is the difference between an osteopath and a chiropractor?
Both treat musculoskeletal problems such as back and neck pain with hands-on techniques. Osteopaths tend to use a broader range of soft-tissue and mobilisation techniques; chiropractors focus more on the spine and joint adjustments. In practice the approaches overlap.
Are osteopaths and chiropractors regulated?
Yes. Both titles are protected by law. Osteopaths must be registered with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) and chiropractors with the General Chiropractic Council (GCC). Both registers can be searched online.
Do I need a GP referral?
No, you can book directly. Some health insurers ask for a GP referral before they will pay, so check your policy first.
What happens at the first appointment?
Expect questions about your symptoms and medical history, a physical examination and, if appropriate, treatment. Wear comfortable clothing and ask how many sessions they expect you to need.
