Everything you need before your first visit
Frequently asked questions
How does a first consultation unfold?+
The first session lasts around 45 minutes. It starts with a discussion of your history, your reason for coming and your lifestyle, then a clinical examination (posture, mobility), and ends with treatment tailored to your needs.
How long does a session last?+
About 45 minutes for osteopathy. Massages and lymphatic drainage sessions last 60 to 90 minutes depending on the format chosen.
What are the prices?+
Prices are listed on the Pricing page. Payment is made at the end of the consultation in cash, via Bit or Revolut. Credit card payments are not accepted.
Is the consultation reimbursed by Israeli kupot or insurance?+
Israeli supplementary plans (Clalit Mushlam, Maccabi Sheli/Magen Zahav, Meuhedet Adif/Zahav) partly reimburse osteopathy. A receipt is provided for your claim. Private international and French insurance plans often cover part or all of the session.
How should I dress?+
Wear comfortable underwear or sportswear. You can undress while staying covered with a sheet for examination.
Can I come during pregnancy?+
Yes, at any stage. Techniques are adjusted to the trimester and your condition. Osteopathy eases lower back and pelvic pain and helps prepare the pelvis for birth.
From what age can I bring a baby?+
From the very first days of life. Techniques used are extremely gentle (comparable to the weight of a small coin). Common reasons: colic, sleep issues, congenital torticollis, plagiocephaly.
How often should I consult?+
For a recent pain, 1 to 3 sessions are often enough. For preventive care: one session every 3 to 6 months. More regular follow-up may be needed for chronic conditions.
Are there any contraindications?+
Absolute contraindications are rare (recent fracture, acute infection, certain active cancers). When in doubt, I refer you to your physician before any care.
Which health insurances cover consultations?+
Most private international plans (Cigna, Allianz, April, AXA, MSH…), Israeli supplementary plans from the four kupot, and many French expat insurance plans. A detailed receipt is provided for reimbursement.
Can I cancel an appointment?+
Yes, via WhatsApp, phone or email. Fees apply: cancellation less than 7 days before the appointment, 100 ₪; less than 48 hours, full session fee; over 15 minutes late, full session fee. If you're unsure about a slot, please contact us before booking.
In which languages can the consultation take place?+
In French, English or Hebrew, as you prefer.
