Anisha Joshi, co-founder of Osteo Allies and award winning osteopath talks with Rob about  how communication and empowerment are key in a holistic approach to osteopathy 
She talks about what you should expect when you see an osteopath and why it’s a process that should be empowering with actions that are manageable and achievable for the patient supporting them in feeling better in all areas
KEY TAKEAWAYS

It's about the person in front of you getting the best level of care
People should leave feeling empowered, positive, and ready to move forward
It's understanding people’s aims and goals and helping them to reach them
If you see an osteopath there will be hands-on manual therapy to understand what’s happening and help to make things manageable
It’s about the patient feeling that they can do it and that it's manageable in their life
Pain is multifactorial and helping patients to understand this is key
What is said is of vital importance for the clinician and the patient
It's about looking at all elements and empowering the patient to feel better across all areas

BEST MOMENTS
‘You are the expert of your body so it’s important your osteopath listens to you’
‘It's rewarding to empower people in the right way’
‘The body needs direction, we are helping to signpost the right direction’
