What is Osteopathy ?

Osteopathy is an alternative medicine based on the perfect knowledge of the anatomy and physiological functioning of the human body.

Thanks to gentle techniques, the osteopath succeeds in untying bone, joint, muscle and other lesions.

The osteopath treats patients of all ages from birth to the last moments of life.

One of the specificities of osteopathy is its visceral approach, indeed it has been proven that a visceral lesion could have repercussions because of a complex nervous pathway on another area of your body linked to the affected area. In other words, it is possible that your shoulder pain does not come from the shoulder itself but from a dysfunction of your liver or your stomach. In the same way, lower back pain can be caused by tissue attachments in your bladder or your intestine.

The osteopath through a large number of both orthopedic and osteopathic tests will try to find a diagnosis.

The osteopath sets up a questionnaire on the patient’s medical and family history in order to have the broadest possible view of the patient’s health situation.

Indeed, an injury dating back several years and not or badly treated can lead to chronic pain many years later.

The osteopath, using gentle and manual techniques, will try to unblock these lesion areas in order to allow better movement of the affected area. The body will finally have the opportunity to return to its original state.
