As we are massively off thread already - what does an Osteopath do? (however you spell it)

It's not excluded that one sails a K1, but in my experience they manipulate your back by getting you into back-breaking wrestling holds then leaning on you, which is extremely worrying (and one reason I didn't go back for further visits, I now recall).

But I'm surprised that they and osteopaths don't hang about Finn events hoping to pick up patients.

Osteopaths are a split from Chriopractic that likes to think that they are more medical- they (almost all) stick to just spinal complaints (unlike chiros that reckon they can fix asthma, diabetes etc)
