Osteopathy
Osteopathy - what is it and why is it worth taking a closer look?
Osteopathy is a holistic treatment method that assumes that the human body is a unity - a structure connected both physically and functionally. The osteopath works with the body manually, using precise, often very gentle touch, to find the cause of ailments and trigger the body's natural self-healing processes.
Unlike many classical therapeutic methods, osteopathy does not focus solely on symptomsbut above all on the source of the problem. This can be muscle tension, blood circulation disorders, joint strain, but also stress or traumatic experiences stored in the body.
Why go to an osteopath?
In our daily routine, we often ignore the signals our body sends us: tensions, pain, limited mobility, feelings of fatigue or difficulty breathing. A visit to an osteopath can be the first step to regaining balance and feeling better - not only physically, but also emotionally.

What ailments can an osteopath treat?
Osteopathy is proven to treat a wide range of health problems - including those that traditional medicine often fails to fully deal with. Here are some of the ailments you can visit an osteopath with:
- back and joint pains
- tension headaches and migraines
- tinnitus, dizziness
- body rigidity, limitation of mobility
- digestive complaints (reflux, flatulence, constipation)
- sleep disorders, chronic fatigue
- pains related to stress and emotional tension
- bruxism (grinding of teeth), including in close cooperation with the dentist
- support for the treatment of injuries and convalescence
An osteopath can help both people with chronic health problems and those seeking prevention and a better quality of life.
What does osteopathic therapy involve?
Therapy begins a detailed interview and palpationwhich allow the therapist to assess the tension, mobility and quality of tissues throughout the body. Touch is key - it is through touch that the osteopath locates dysfunctions and monitors the body's response to therapy.
During treatment, the osteopath may use a variety of techniques:
- musculo-fascial techniques
- cranio-sacral therapy
- visceral techniques (on internal organs)
- joint mobilisations and manipulations
- techniques to support the nervous, circulatory and lymphatic systems
The aim of the therapy is to restore balance in the body and activating its natural self-healing capacity. This provides not only symptom relief, but also a lasting improvement in body function.
