What is Osteopathy?

What is Osteopathy?

Manual osteopathic manipulation is one of the most secure non-invasive, drug-free approaches for treating neuromusculoskeletal and joint diseases.

Manual Osteopathy helps the body regain function by addressing the underlying causes of pain and imbalance. This is done by using a gentle, hands-on technique called palpation.

Osteopathy is for people who desire to address their pain from the inside out rather than just the surface symptoms. Numerous ailments, including sports and repetitive stress injuries, arthritis, neck and back pain, sciatica, and migraines, can be successfully treated with Osteopathy.

What conditions can be treated with Manual Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is for people who prefer treating their pain from the roots rather than just dealing with the symptoms. Many types of conditions can be treated with Osteopathy, including sports injuries, repetitive stress injuries, arthritis, neck and back pain, sciatica, and migraines.

What happens during my first treatment?

The first step is to complete a general information and health questionnaire form so that I can better understand you, your condition, and your health goals, followed by a physical examination where I may ask you to make a few motions. At the same time, I feel for any changes or limitations in your standard movement patterns.

Following a thorough evaluation of your illness and the necessary osteopathic services, manual therapy is conducted to begin treatment.

When Should You Seek Osteopathy Treatment?

Osteopathy offers effective treatment for a variety of conditions, including headaches, migraines, TMJ disorders, and arthritis. Our holistic and personalized approach focuses on improving overall well-being by addressing the root causes of pain and discomfort. If you’re dealing with persistent pain that impacts your daily life, osteopathic care can help. We target areas like the back, neck, and joints, providing long-lasting relief by focusing on the underlying issues. Cranial osteopathy can be particularly beneficial for frequent headaches and migraines by relieving tension in the neck and upper back, reducing both the frequency and intensity of symptoms. For TMJ disorders, we use gentle soft-tissue techniques to release tension in the jaw muscles, restoring function and alleviating pain. Osteopathy is also effective for treating postural problems that contribute to pain and limited mobility, as well as conditions like digestive issues, stress, sports injuries, and post-surgical recovery. Let us help you regain comfort and improve your standard of living.
