Physio isn't for everyone. Also depends on who you see. It does try to focus on longer-term solutions rather than a manipulation that can 'fix' things at the time, but may not fix things indefinitely. I work with some fantastic physios who do more than just provide belts and exercises.]]> Mon, 06 Feb 2012 23:17:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=5778725&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#5778725 <![CDATA[Osteo, Chiro, or physio? : For me the physio was a waste...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1428574&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1428574 Author: vixgirl

For me the physio was a waste of time, I went twice, got the band, got the exercises and it didn't help if anything made my spd/sciatica worse. I paid for 2 sessions at the osteo, one that specialises in pregnancy and after the manipulation was heaps better got me through 6-8 weeks of alot less pain (not pain free just minimal pain). It's flared up again now, but she said it would as I got heavier, I could go back but have decided to just push through the last couple of weeks...

Try and see a physio. Benefits are that it's free if you see the hospital one and there is more to treatment than manipulation (which really isn't a long-term answer). Plus the physio that you see is specifically trained in women's health/maternity care so takes into consideration more than just your back pain.]]> Sat, 04 Feb 2012 00:21:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1428231&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1428231 <![CDATA[Osteo, Chiro, or physio? : didnt find the osteo much diff...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1427291&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1427291 Author: KelzF09

I would recommend an Osteo over anyone else having worked alongside them before and have also been treated for Sciatic pain during pregnancy before with great success.]]> Tue, 31 Jan 2012 14:04:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426987&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426987 <![CDATA[Osteo, Chiro, or physio? : m/w recomended a osteo as u can...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426977&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426977 Author: KelzF09

m/w recomended a osteo as u can usually get away with not ending up with smiley belt/crutches or stick etc, am booked in tomorro with a osteo and see what they are like if i dont like them i will change as they r way more expensive i am paying $35 and thats just a acc surcharge]]> Tue, 31 Jan 2012 13:48:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426977&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426977 <![CDATA[Osteo, Chiro, or physio? : I&#039;ve found using a Chiropractor...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426954&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426954 Author: Dot2012

I've found using a Chiropractor a god send for my pregnancy back pain, but unfortunately you do have to pay. If you can get a referral to a physio and its free, I'd say check that out first!]]> Tue, 31 Jan 2012 12:14:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426954&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426954 <![CDATA[Osteo, Chiro, or physio? : I agree about getting referred...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426733&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426733 Author: EmDee

I agree about getting referred to the hospital physio. I also got a smiley belt (though I rarely use it) and a couple of flexi-grip tube things that you wear over your tummy which really helped. Though I had back pain rather than sciatica.]]> Mon, 30 Jan 2012 18:42:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426733&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426733 <![CDATA[Osteo, Chiro, or physio? : Get your midwife to refer to the...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426724&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426724 Author: AandCsmum

Get your midwife to refer to the hospital physio, bonus is it's free I just had my second appointment today and the lady was really good, lots of ideas. I got a smiley belt last time for free, only if I don't return it I get charged. It's helped heaps.

She did my pressure points in my hip today & i feel so much better, I wish I'd gone when I was at your stage.]]> Mon, 30 Jan 2012 17:41:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426724&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426724 <![CDATA[Osteo, Chiro, or physio? : I used to see a chiro, which was...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41456&PID=1426698&title=osteo-chiro-or-physio#1426698 Author: AbzandH

I used to see a chiro, which was amazing!! Im not sure of the difference but just ask around people you know for a recommendation.
