What is Osteopathy
A natural, gentle treatment method that addresses the root cause of problems, not just symptoms
Principles of Osteopathy
Wholeness
The body is a unified system where everything is interconnected. A problem in one area can manifest as pain in another.
Self-Healing
The body is capable of healing itself. The osteopath's task is to remove obstacles and help the body initiate this process.
Structure = Function
A healthy body structure ensures healthy function. Restricted mobility leads to organ dysfunction.
Cause, Not Symptom
An osteopath finds and eliminates the root cause of the problem, not just relieves pain. This provides long-term results.
How an Osteopath Works
Diagnosis
The osteopath assesses tissue mobility, finding areas of tension and movement restriction
Finding the Cause
Identifies the root cause of dysfunction β often located far from the site of pain
Gentle Correction
Using delicate techniques, restores mobility and balance in the body
