about osteopathy
What Is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy that works with the body’s structure—joints, muscles, fascia, nerves, and circulation—to support optimal function. Treatments are safe, non-invasive, and personalized to your needs. A manual osteopath uses techniques such as soft tissue release, gentle joint mobilization, stretching, and myofascial unwinding to restore balance throughout the body.
Unlike other therapies that may only treat symptoms, osteopathy looks at the whole person. This whole-body approach helps resolve imbalances that may be contributing to your pain or restricted movement.
