Is a therapeutic science based in the biomechanics of the body. It deals with the skeletal muscle system. The treatment is manual and natural, since the body has a capacity for healing and rebalancing and aims the balancing it, improving the posture and eliminating pain with manipulation of the joints, placing them in their more accurate positions through the use of manipulation and massage.
It is known that the tensions are manifested in the muscles, contracting and incurring them, and they are related to the bone and articulations. The muscles are tense and contracted and the pain will appear.
The pain in turn makes the muscles contract to prevent movement not to emerge joint pain. Thus the joint begins to be reduced the movements, being compressed, suffering detritions, producing more pain, accumulating liquids and not doing drainage, which will only complicate the situation and hence a vicious cycle.
Osteopathy tries to take the joints to their place, allowing the increasing of the movements and bringing a greater well-being and less pain.
Treatment
The patient is evaluated as a whole where the cause of the injury is the main concern and not its consequences. The origin of the primary lesion is crucial because we know that injuries cause adjustments and compensation that that if not locked arouse discomfort and pain. The sooner we act in the treatment of osteopathy dysfunction better your prognosis.
The ideal is to make use of osteopathy when the first pain start and not let the years because time does not cure, rather aggravates the situation and what could be avoided becomes an issue often disabling and do not allow us to get the desired yield of life or enjoy it in its entirety.
Indications
Osteopathy is recommended on the following cases:
- Vertebral algic:
- Torticollis;
- Neck pain;
- Back pain
- Back pain;
- Sciatica.
- Upper limb pain:
- Neuralgia
- Paresthesia;
- Lesions by repeated efforts;
- compression syndrome from the gorge scapulothoracic.
- Lower limb pain:
- States of tension:
- Tension
- Headache;
- Irritability.
Is a way to find an appropriate posture and movement without pain and increase circulation throughout the drainage of liquids. Adjusting the internal balance and eliminating tension, seeks a holistic harmony of the body, providing welfare.
Among the indications against are inflammatory rheumatism, cancer, fractures, vertigo by vertebral-basilar insufficiency, advanced osteoporosis, cva stroke, thrombosis,
How Osteopathy works
Osteopathy sees the human being as a whole being a holistic therapy.
The structure commands function, each function of our body (Respiratory, digestive, heart, locomotion or psychological…) is based on structural anatomic elements. If the structure (skeleton) is messy (in mechanical dysfunction) is expected to happen a compensation of tissue, which prevents the normal movement, thus causing a continuous decompensation.
The relationship vertebra- body and body-vertebra.
Prevention
Preventive Treatment
Osteopathy helps to adjust the balance eliminating internal tensions in the prevention of several disorders, and effective as a complement in medical and psychological practices.
Learning to listen to our body
The body has memory, he body speaks for himself but we must be attentive to signals that he sends us.
Osteopathy is based on listening to the other but mainly in the hands through palpation.
It is a means to feel the body and come into contact with tensions and imbalances.
Find the causes of these imbalances attracting a new and deeper awareness of the body.
Learn to know him better, respect him, making us more sensitive to their needs and rhythms.
