Osteopathy versus Physiotherapy:
why we think you should choose Tide Physiotherapy and Health
Our answer to Osteopathy versus Physiotherapy
-
We take a whole-person approach rather than focus specifically the joint because the health of the wider systems including the immune, nervous and hormonal system are increasingly being linked to the persistence of painful symptoms.
-
Our physiotherapist has additional training in Cognitive Functional Therapy and Nutrition. This enables us to address lifestyle and health factors in greater detail without having to refer you to another service. For more information linking food to pain, see our blog article here.

Physiotherapy is the recognised first-line treatment advised in the NICE Guidelines for osteoarthritis (NICE, 2022), chronic low back pain (NICE, 2016) and neck pain (NICE, 2023) and our physiotherapist, Myles Whitbread-Jordan, is a specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapist in the NHS whilst also running the Tide Physiotherapy and Health clinic.

We focus on returning people to the activities they love through values-based rehabilitation and our clinic owner, Myles Whitbread-Jordan, has published research on this approach
