Osteopathy is a therapeutic approach which aims to restore a person's balance and improve their general functioning. It is based on precise knowledge of anatomy, manual therapy and movement. In addition, modern osteopathy is informed by neuroscience and psychology, for truly global support.

Osteopathy and physiotherapy are two complementary approaches to health. Osteopathy focuses on the harmony of the entire body, while physiotherapy focuses more on the specific rehabilitation of movement. Both are essential for optimal health.

Osteopathy treats many neuro-musculoskeletal pains, back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint pain, cervico-brachial neuralgia, sciatic neuralgia, sports injuries as well as several functional digestive disorders, among others.

To begin, the osteopath talks with you about the circumstances in which your problem appeared. He then carries out a thorough assessment of your physical condition, including the range of your movements and the mechanical properties of your tissues.

In general, the treatment is mainly based on manual therapy techniques, and depending on the situation your osteopath may offer you movements, meditation and/or therapeutic hypnosis.

An osteopathy session generally lasts between 45 and 60 minutes. Remember to always plan a little wide, your osteopath takes the time you need to take care of you.

The number of osteopathy sessions you will need depends primarily on your problem. Many new-onset pains are resolved in one or two sessions. For persistent pain, long-term follow-up will often be preferable.

The treatment strategy is always personalized and takes into account your specific needs and goals.
