Osteopathy
Manual Osteopathy is a holistic, hands-on therapy that focuses on assessing and treating the body's structure and function to promote self-healing. It emphasizes the interconnection of the musculoskeletal, circulatory, visceral structures (organs), and nervous systems, using techniques like soft tissue manipulation, joint mobilization, myofascial release, and cranial osteopathy. The approach is tailored to the individual, aiming to restore balance and alleviate pain while supporting overall well-being.
