The use of scans

Radiography, especially medical scans, are a revelation for clinicians who want confirmation of a diagnosis.

Fortunately you don’t need to have a scan before you visit me, nor do you need a GP referral to see Gayle Palmer.

My “magic fingers”are trained to feel and diagnose a range of conditions and often a picture will make no difference to the treatment plan for you.

#trustyourOsteopath to know what is best for you – or refer you on if necessary.

Each year I pick up anomalies and problems that won’t be detected with an Xray.

NB One use of scans are pre-emptive and preventative scans such as mammography and Dexa bone density scans which can pick up the early tissue changes before tumours or bone fractures occur. If you are called for one of these – please go. They are non-invasive and quick, and can give you some peace of mind.
