Osteopathy
Osteopathy is focused on the idea that disease arises from a poor working relationship between the body's anatomical structure and physiological function created by various types of stress, strain or trauma. The body has a natural tendency towards health and will adapt to these stresses.
The osteopathic practitioner assesses and treats from the perspective of the whole body and seeks to restore the proper mobility of the component parts. Attaining balance among the body's systems (musculoskeletal, circulatory, digestive, pulmonary, neural, etc.) is the ultimate goal of an osteopathic treatment. Through this approach, osteopathy aids in the restoration of normal movement and function thereby assisting the body in achieving its natural goal of well being. Osteopathy, like physiotherapy, uses hands on techniques to restore movement and health.
Myofascial release, Cranio-sacral therapy, Strain Counter Strain, and GOT (General Osteopathic Technique) are just some of the techniques used by our osteopathic practitioner.
