It is a unique, holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the whole body, not just the symptomatic area. It is based on the principle that the body has the inherent ability to heal itself and maintain health. Practitioners of osteopathy use hands-on techniques like massage, stretching, articulation, soft tissue manipulation, and trigger point therapy to enhance the body's natural healing process.
These techniques aim to alleviate pain, improve mobility, enhance circulation, and restore overall health and wellbeing. Rather than focusing on disease or specific parts of the body, this approach considers the body as an integrated whole.
Osteopathy is highly effective in dealing with postural issues that result from improper workstation ergonomics, prolonged sitting, or even carrying heavy items. It aids in realigning the musculoskeletal system, promoting better posture and preventing related health issues.
Osteopathy addresses the root cause of pain, providing lasting relief. By focusing on the entire body, not just the symptomatic area, osteopathy can alleviate various pains and discomforts, including back pain, neck pain, and headaches.
Osteopathy can complement conventional treatment for chronic conditions like asthma, arthritis, and irritable bowel syndrome. It helps manage symptoms, enhance general health, and improve the body's resilience against these conditions.
We specialize in a variety of osteopathic techniques aimed at addressing a broad spectrum of health conditions. Two key services we offer within our osteopathy treatment are Craniosacral Technique and Concussion Management.
The Craniosacral Technique is a gentle, non-invasive form of bodywork that addresses the bones of the head, spinal column, and sacrum. It's designed to release compression and alleviate stress and pain. This technique can be particularly beneficial for those suffering from migraines, chronic neck and back pain, and more. We also focus on Concussion Management, providing comprehensive care to individuals who have experienced a concussion. Our approach involves thorough assessments and personalized treatment plans, aiming to reduce symptoms and promote recovery.
Another important technique we utilize is Somatoemotional Release, a therapeutic process that helps rid the mind and body of residual effects of past trauma. Our professionals are committed to ensuring you experience relief, recovery, and overall wellness through our comprehensive osteopathic services.
Embarking on your osteopathy journey with Atlantic Chiropractic involves a comprehensive understanding of your health landscape. Initially, our osteopath engages you in a detailed conversation about your symptoms and overall health history. This is followed by an extensive physical examination where the osteopath employs their skilled hands to uncover any muscular weaknesses, areas of tenderness, or potential disruptions.
This process facilitates the development of a tailored treatment plan to address your specific needs. The length and number of treatment sessions can vary, with an average of nine sessions usually suffice for most conditions. Chronic issues may require ongoing care to manage effectively.
