What is difference between osteopath and sports masseur?
"Osteo" means bone, so
Osteopaths treat musculoskeletal disorders such as neck and back pain.
They can diagnose medical conditions and also use soft tissue
techniques.
Massage is well known for its relaxing effect but it is also for people with injuries or chronic pain.
Sports masseurs work on soft
and deep tissues of the body using all types of different massage
techniques to release tension and pain in the muscles and joints. So
they can help certain musculoskeletal conditions.
Both
treatments are sterile, painless, non-invasive and drug- free, and can
be used to treat a variety of pain syndromes and
musculoskeletal conditions.
