Osteopathic Listening Assessment

At your first visit to Sens Fontaine Osteopathy, you will be asked about your symptoms and health history.* Our Manual Osteopaths will discuss your health concerns with you, and give an Osteopathic Listening Assessment.

Since the body functions as an entity, it is important to discover the root causes that give rise to pain or discomfort. We interpret information the body offers regarding imbalances and dysfunctions, explore to determine which body structures are involved, and identify the best approach for treatment results.

We then discuss our findings with you and let you know what our aims and objectives will be for your treatment plan. There are many different treatment modalities we can use ranging from soft tissue release, to the more subtle cranial and visceral techniques. Treatment is tailored to suit you as an individual, and the number of treatments needed will vary depending on the individual and the symptoms.

*If you have had any previous investigations such as X-rays or MRIs, and you have reports at home, please bring copies of these with you.

Epigenetics Assessment

For clients wanting to optimize immunity well-being, we recommend an Epigenetics Assessment.

Epigenetics is the study of how the environment and other factors can change the way genes are expressed. While epigenetic changes do not alter the sequence of a person’s genetic code, epigenetics influence your body’s underlying wellness and can play an important role in development.

Using German technology for analysis, your epigenetics are assessed by processing hair samples.

We assess you for vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, antioxidants, amino acids, food restrictions, drug resistance, effect of additives, acid/alkaline balance, the impact of environmental frequency interference such as electrical sensitivity or ELF/EMF interference, environmental challenges such as toxins and radiation, and the health status of your digestive tract, circulatory system, and immune system.

Is your body nutritionally balanced?

Is the environment affecting your overall wellness?

The Epigenetics Assessment highlights potential functional impacts to help you find out what everyday factors may be causing your symptoms (if any) and provide a plan to help move you forward towards better health.
