Classical Osteopathy
Classical Osteopathy is focused on helping the patient get as healthy and as functional as they can. The philosophy is driven by the fact that our bodies strive to be healthy and sometimes they get stuck in certain positions, or with dysfunctions that limit our bodies ability to move, breath, digest and other functions. Treatment in this standpoint is looking at increasing overall health including, movement patterns, posture, breathing, digestion and blood circulation. Treatment is gentle in nature and can be very affective for people of all ages from infancy to elderly.
Our Services
Osteopathy is a profession that makes extensive use of manual assessment and treatment guided by the principles set forth by its founder, Dr. Andrew Taylor Still. Osteopathy emphasizes the interrelationship between structure and function of the body. Osteopaths are functional anatomists who use manual therapy. They find the health, rather than focus on disease. Osteopathic treatment works to restore proper body mechanics, nerve impulses and the circulation of body fluids.
What to expect
Treatment is gentle, specific and focused on creating health within the body. The treatment may include treatment on the fascial, muscular and ligamentous layers. Treatment is generally pain free and calming to the body.
