Osteopathy is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the body's musculoskeletal system. Practitioners, known as osteopaths, believe that the body's structure and function are interconnected. By using hands-on techniques, they aim to improve movement, relieve pain, and promote overall health. Osteopathy can be beneficial for various conditions, including back pain, joint issues, and even stress-related problems. Treatment often involves gentle manipulation, stretching, and massage to enhance circulation and support the body's natural healing processes. This approach emphasizes the importance of treating the whole person rather than just the symptoms.
