There are many clinics and osteopathy practitioners who may ask you to sign a treatment
plan or contract even before you have been assessed and a diagnosis done. Think twice about continuing in such places as they clearly seem to be interested in your money than in your health. An ideal practitioner will never ask you to pay or draft a treatment plan before assessing you. Most often, a treatment plan is drawn only after you have been examined and diagnosed. In this situation too, the osteopath will explain that the plan is only temporary and changes will be made as treatment progresses and by the way your body responds to the therapy.
