Osteopathy

[spacer height=”20px”]

Osteopathy is a hands on, holistic form of treatment, assessing the whole body. It focuses on treating the musculo-skeletal system to re-establish balance and encourage the self-healing mechanism of the individual.

By regarding body, mind and soul as a unit, Osteopathy is concerned with a person-centered health care rather than disease-centered. While considering the interrelationship of structure and function, the osteopathic practitioner performs non-invasive techniques such as joint mobilization, soft tissue therapy, and prescribes exercises.
