Abstract:

This pilot study was carried out to show that osteopathic treatment has a beneficial effect on the patients with musculoskeletal problems presenting in the general practice setting. A non-randomized sample was used for the general practice clinic and their response to treatment was monitored throughout the treatment period and after discharge. Results showed that the effect of osteopathic manipulation was of benefit to the patients. It also had reduced the number of future consultations required with the patient's general practitioner.
