I'd say an osteopath concentrate's on the muscular system as well as the skeletal. Where as a chiropractor mainly focuses on the skeletal.

 In short, a chiropractor makes smaller manipulations over many appointments, where as an osteopath causes louder audible cracks, that leave you laughing nervously hoping your neck will still be attached to your body when you sit up, that said usually less appointments are needed.

I've been to both, I'd take the osteopath over the chiropractor as tight muscles can pull at bone so it is no good aligning the spine only for tight muscles to pull it out of alignment again. My osteopath never sort to make appointments just to make more money.

A physiotherapist usually works on exercises to help strengthen the muscles.

Chiropractic Care may be a better method to solve nerve, muscle and skeletal problem if your chiropractor be an expert and skilled. Actually this treatment method is not a treatment method to practice for all. So, be aware about the experience and skill of your chiropractor.Chiropractor 30044

A chiropractor is a professional in the field of health care. This particular profession can serve as a complementary or an alternative which leans towards the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of mechanical nature, to do with the musculoskeletal system, nervous system and its effects on general health. Their main argument is that misalignments in the spinal cord area, can lead to deterioration of health. They offer treatment in the form of spinal adjustments.

An osteopath functions on the basic premise that most diseases are caused due to deformed part of the skeleton, which interferes with adjoining blood vessels and nerves.

Osteopaths follow a holistic way; they diagnose the person as a whole, rather than just the affected part. They use a technique called as Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) to administer physical and manual therapy.
