I had my first ever osteopathic appointment at the ESO clinic on Thursday 21st October, my practitioner was very thorough with the questions making sure she knew everything she needed to know to help me in the best way, after 1 session i felt an improvement as well as relieving a lot of anxiety i had for my first ever treatment.

I learnt a lot from having treatment such as some of the tests and procedures an osteopath does to diagnose a patient, it has also helped me with my consultation skills after seeing how my practitioner done it.

2nd session- In this session my practitioner worked on strengthening all of the muscles around the shoulder, after a few tests at the beginning to see if my shoulder had strengthened since the last session she done some re- alignments of my thoracic spine and worked to strengthen all of the muscles around the AC joint as well as moving the muscles around the clavicle to strengthen the pectoralis major and the scapula

I observed both clinic tutor and student practitioner use both of their knowledge to find a patients diagnosis and discuss a treatment plan to help the patient return to full health

# data[].attributes.body
The student practitioner was continuously communicating with the patient to make sure that the patient felt safe at all times as well as informing the patient of everything they were going to be doing to ensure the patient felt safe with the practitioner

# data[].attributes.body
today in clinic i witnessed communication being shown between patient and practitioner, this was shown when the student was explaining what he was doing and how it is helping the patient return to full health as well as comforting her due to her being able to understand what he was doing and why he was doing it
