Osteopaths treat patients using a combination of gentle stretching, massage and mobilize joints to ease symptoms such as back pain, stiff joints, headaches, arthritis, fatigue or digestive issues.
Osteopathic manual practitioners assess and treat your body as a whole, because:
-
symptoms sometimes show up in a different part of your body from where the problem actually is
-
there may be several factors contributing to the symptoms you experience
Osteopathic treatment is efficient, which helps to minimize the number of visits you need.
Practitioners go through many years of training to develop their highly refined palpatory skills.
