OSTEOPATHY
Balance between structure and function
Osteopathy is a diagnostic and treatment system, effective in a great variety of musculoskeletal problems in patients of all ages.
Osteopathy is based on the principle that a person’s well being depends on the correct function and integration between the systemic, nervous and musculoskeletal systems. Restoring balance in the body is the osteopath’s main aim.
A specialised osteopath promotes restoration of mobility, relaxation of the body and improvement of the health of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems thanks to manual therapy techniques such as mobilisation, manipulation and soft tissue.
