Osteopathic Treatments
Osteopathy is a primary healthcare system, complementary to other medical practices based on biomedical sciences. It takes a holistic approach to the body and internal systems. An important principle of osteopathy is the stimulation of the bodys natural self-healing mechanisms. Osteopaths treat the whole person and consider all aspects of the patients life, enabling them to maintain optimum health.
Information for Patients On your first consultation, your osteopath will compile a detailed case history, followed by a thorough examination. The main tool used for diagnosis and osteopathic treatment is touch. Analysis of your bodys movements is also an important aspect. Once a diagnosis is reached and explained to you, your osteopath will use a wide range of manual techniques for your treatment. Osteopathic treatment helps not only to relieve your symptoms, but also to eliminate the cause of your problem.
