OSTEOPATHY
Osteopath treatment is a hands-on, non-invasive approach that encourages and stimulates the body to heal and repair itself by increasing circulation and realigning the body’s structures.
Osteopathy is the study of the human body as it functions in health and disease.
Osteopathy views the individual as a whole unit, it assesses and treats movement restrictions in your body tissues that prevent you from feeling and functioning at your best.
It focuses on the cause of pain and dysfunction rather than concentrating only on the symptoms.
Osteopathic palpation is a refined sense of touch that allows the practitioner to feel restrictions within the body.
