For The Health of It - manual osteopathy

 Osteoarticular techniques are a key component of osteopathic manual therapy, focusing on the treatment of joints (articular structures) to restore proper movement, alignment, and function. These techniques are designed to alleviate restrictions, improve mobility, and reduce pain by targeting the bones, joints, and surrounding soft tissues. Common techniques are:

High Velocity/Low Amplitude 

Muscle Energy Techniques

Joint Mobilization

 Myofascial remodeling is a specialized approach within osteopathy that focuses on treating the myofascial system—an intricate network of connective tissues (fascia) that surround and support muscles, bones, and organs. This technique is designed to address restrictions, tension, and imbalances in the fascia to promote healing, improve movement, and restore function. 

 Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle, non-invasive osteopathic technique that focuses on the subtle rhythms and movements of the craniosacral system, which includes the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. The goal of CST is to restore balance and improve function by relieving tension in this system, promoting the body’s natural healing processes.

 Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a specialized technique used in osteopathy to support the lymphatic system, which plays a crucial role in fluid balance, immune function, and detoxification. The goal of MLD is to promote the movement of lymph fluid through the body, reducing swelling, improving immune response, and facilitating the removal of waste products and toxins. 

 Visceral manipulation is an osteopathic technique that involves the gentle and precise manipulation of the internal organs (viscera) to improve their function and restore the natural movement and mobility of the tissues that support them. The goal is to release restrictions, restore normal organ mobility, and address imbalances in the body's fascial, muscular, and ligamentous connections that can affect organ function and overall health
