Osteopathy
Our approach to Osteo care
Reduce pain. Move better. Future-proof.
At Rapid Recovery, we don’t want you feeling better for just a week or two — we want to help you feel and move better for the long run.
Every Osteopathy appointment follows our structured model of care:
1. Reduce pain – Recover faster
Early on, our focus is understanding what you’re feeling, what may be contributing to it, and how it’s affecting your movement.
Your practitioner will use hands-on care (when appropriate) and simple, personalised guidance to help you build early momentum.
We typically see you once or twice per week in this stage.
2. Move better – Address cause
As symptoms begin to settle, we shift toward improving how your body moves and functions.
This stage focuses on:
- restoring mobility
- improving coordination between joints and muscles
- addressing contributing factors (load, strength, posture, technique)
- gradually building control and confidence
Appointments in this stage are commonly weekly or fortnightly.
3. Future-proof – Stay strong
This stage helps you maintain progress and support long-term movement and resilience.
It is ideal for people wanting to stay active, support their workload or training, or reduce the likelihood of recurring issues.
Most people attend every 2–4 weeks, depending on their goals and lifestyle.
