Osteopathy is a holistic, hands-on approach to healthcare that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing a wide range of conditions by addressing the muscles, bones, and joints, as well as the body's interconnected systems. Osteopathic treatments involve techniques such as stretching, gentle pressure, and manipulation to improve mobility, relieve pain, and promote healing. Osteopathy can be effective for managing conditions like musculoskeletal pain (e.g., back, neck, and joint pain), sports injuries, headaches, postural issues, and even digestive or respiratory problems. Osteopaths aim to treat the root cause of symptoms, not just the symptoms themselves, by enhancing the body’s natural ability to heal and function.
