Osteopathy is a holistic, practical approach to treating various chronic conditions and stimulating the body’s self-healing powers. The spectrum of conditions that can be treated osteopathically ranges from pain and digestive problems to headaches and stress-related complaints. What distinguishes osteopathy from other disciplines is its attention to the body’s fascia. Fascia is the connective tissue that binds and holds the body together. By tracing the tension in the fascia from the symptom to the cause, the osteopath can provide long-term relief to the patient.
