Osteopathy involves palpation and non-invasive manipulation of the musculoskeletal system in the diagnosis and treatment of physical dysfunction, aimed at restoring physical function and promoting the body’s ability to heal itself.
Our physiotherapists well trained in osteopathy & myofascial release. Their assessment & treatment plans are not restricted to the localized pain or symptoms but always take a whole body approach to find out the key lesion and imbalance in the body. We believe that any abnormal functions of any structure or parts can also cause symptoms elsewhere in the body.
The Myofascial Release may involve usage of special balls & rollers to target the trigger points.
Your session begins with a whole-body assessment of posture, movement and tissue quality, since osteopathic treatment looks beyond just the painful area. Hands-on techniques may include gentle mobilisation, stretching and myofascial release.
Osteopathic assessment takes a broader, whole-body view of how different areas may be contributing to your symptoms, complementing the more targeted techniques used in standard physiotherapy.
