This is not only because individuals differ greatly from one another: the conditions seen by the osteopath also vary widely. However, a guideline can be given. After four treatments, there should be a marked improvement in symptoms in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sprongosteopaatamsterdam.nl\/en\/adult\/\">adult<\/a>. If after four times of moving the whole body osteopathically there is no result, then a fifth or a sixth time of treatment does not make sense at that time.

Then you should think of 1 or at most 2 weeks. This is because the first consultation often addresses movement limitations that have existed for a long time and thus usually do not disappear after 1 session. After a second treatment, 2 to 3 weeks can then often be maintained as an interval and after the third treatment a little longer again. One thing, of course, can vary from person to person and condition to condition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many people wonder how many treatments are needed with an osteopath.
