Manual osteopathy is a non-invasive manual approach that looks to balance the body by addressing dysfunctions of the muscles, joints and connective tissue. Manual osteopathy in Edmonton at In Step Physical Therapy is a personalized healing approach that takes your unique needs into account. This therapy is used to make the body return to its natural posture, thereby relieving body pain and ensuring that the body functions better for better health.
Manual osteopathy emphasizes the relationship between structure and function of the body. It uses gentle, hands-on techniques to help relieve pain. This therapy cures the root cause, rather than just the symptoms of the condition. It makes sure that all parts of the body are working together as one system. It aids in movement, relieves tension and promotes healing through balance in the body.
