What is osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a
manual therapy
Osteopathy recognizes that the body functions as a whole; disturbances in one part of the body can affect other parts and even the emotional and mental state of a person. An effective osteopathic approach, therefore, includes treating physical complaints and addressing any underlying emotional or mental stress factors that affect health. In this way, osteopathy helps restore balance between body and mind. Which is essential for achieving and maintaining optimal health and well-being.

An osteopath looks for the root cause of complaints. This involves looking at the whole body and considering it as an integrated system. A physical therapist focuses only on the region where the symptoms are located and makes greater use of exercises to reduce these symptoms. Osteopathy takes a more “hands-on” approach. This is done by moving tissues (e.g., joints, muscles and connective tissue around organs) with the hands.
