OSTEOPATHY
Osteopathy in Florence
Hands-on therapeutic treatment
Osteopathy is a discipline that uses manual therapy for therapeutic purposes.
It is based on the idea that the human body is an integrated system, in which all its parts are interconnected. When one part of the body malfunctions, it can affect the proper functioning of others.
Osteopaths assess movement restrictions, which can be caused by trauma, stress, poor habits, postural errors, and more.
Osteopaths use a variety of manual techniques, such as joint and soft tissue manipulation, to reduce discomfort and muscle tension. This can be particularly helpful for people with chronic or acute pain, such as back pain, headaches, and arthritis.
With their non-invasive and safe manual therapy, they can treat a variety of ailments, including:
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Muscle and joint pain
- Digestive disorders
- Sleep disturbances
- Stress and anxiety
