Osteopathy should not be painful. I work with soft techniques. You may feel mild soreness afterwards, similar to after exercise. This passes within 24–48 hours.

How many sessions will I need?

For acute pain, 2–4 sessions usually suffice. For chronic conditions, 6–10 sessions. Every case is different.

Is it covered by insurance?

Osteopathy is not covered by Czech public health insurance. Many supplementary plans partially or fully reimburse it. I provide payment receipts.

What happens at the first visit?

We start with a thorough case history, then a full postural analysis and movement assessment. An osteopathic session takes 45–60 minutes.
