What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a medicine founded in the United States by the american doctor Andrew Taylor Still. Osteopathy is defined as a manual medicine that diagnoses and treats somatic dysfunctions. Many diseases and pain are caused by such dysfunctions, also called mobility restrictions.
How does it works?
The osteopath uses manual techniques with the aim of normalizing dysfunctions (ex: joints, muscles, organs, bones, ligaments, capsules, fascia, nerves and vessels). The normalization of these dysfunctions enable healing and pain relief. Therefore, a global approach to patient is always used.
