Osteopathy is a holistic manual medicine that helps in the recovery from a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions.
Osteopathy recognises the link between the structure of the body and the way it functions. For example, a structural problem in the body can affect mobility and function, and can lead to another problem elsewhere in the body.
Osteopathic treatment involves a wide range of hands-on techniques from stretching, deep tissue massage, manipulation and/or mobilization of specific joints. the treatment may also involve exercise prescription and ergonomic or postural advices, to help to manage the condition between the treatments.
