About Osteopathy

What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a natural medicine that views the individuals as a functioning whole, requiring optimal health and harmony in all parts for wellness and vitality. Osteopathy uses precise palpatory and manipulative techniques to assess and test the restrictive mechanisms which prevent the various parts of the body from fulfilling their natural functions, preventing you from feeling healthy and fit. Osteopathy is unique in that it focuses on the cause of pain and dysfunction rather than concentrating only on the symptoms. 
The objective of Osteopathy is to restore mobility and proper function to every system in a body experiencing dysfunction and restriction. Restoring mobility and proper function to each system allows normal interrelationships between systems. When normal anatomical and physiological exist between the body's systems, there is health in the whole.

Osteopathy is a natural medicine.

About Reflexology

Reflexology is the application of pressure to areas on the feet,  hands and ears. Reflexology is generally relaxing and may be an effective way to alleviate stress. The theory behind reflexology is that these areas correspond to  organs and systems of the body. Proponents believe that pressure applied  to these areas affects the organs and benefits the person's health.

Reflexologists use foot charts to guide them as they apply pressure to specific areas. Sometimes these practitioners use items, such as rubber balls, rubber bands and sticks of wood, to assist in their work. Practitioners of reflexology include chiropractors, physical therapists and massage therapists, among others. Several studies funded by the National Cancer Institute and the
National Institutes of Health indicate that reflexology may reduce pain and psychological symptoms, such as anxiety and depression, and enhance  relaxation and sleep. Studies also show that reflexology may have  benefits in palliative care of people with cancer.
