What is osteopathy?

 

Osteopathy is a holistic manual form of therapy for the treatment of disorders
and disfunctions without medication. Using the hands, self-healing powers are
reactivated to restore health and improve quality of life.

How does osteopathy work?

 

Life manifests itself in the form of motion which is present in the whole body.  If the natural mobility is restricted, compensation mechanisms may develop. This can lead to pain and illness. The root cause for a complaint can therefore often not be found in the place where the actual symptom appears.

For whom is osteopathy?

 

Basically for all age groups, from the newborn to elderly people, with acute or chronic complaints. Preventive treatment may prevent from disorders and dysfunctions and treat problems at an early stage and with minimal effort.
