Question 1

Will it hurt?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 2

How many sessions will I need?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 3

Is it covered by insurance?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 4

What happens at the first visit?

Accepted Answer

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