What is the philosophy of osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a treatment method that uses hands to adjust the soft tissues and bone joints of the body without the help of any equipment. Symptoms such as soft tissue injuries and bone and joint dislocations can be treated through osteopathy. The concept of osteopathy is to use correct techniques to help the displaced parts of the body return to normal.

Core Concept

The core concept of osteopathy is to restore the displaced and deformed structures of the human body to their normal natural state through manipulation, thereby restoring the body's normal functions.

Scope of application

The scope of application of osteopathic therapy includes chronic soft tissue injuries and bone and joint displacements in various parts of the body, and the resulting abnormalities in human functions. Common shoulder, back, waist and leg pains, cervical spondylosis, degenerative osteoarthritis, idiopathic scoliosis, O-shaped legs and X-shaped legs caused by joint displacement are all indications for osteopathic therapy, and the efficacy is very reliable.

distinguish

Some people call the American chiropractic reflex therapy osteopathy, but in fact it is not real osteopathy at all. It is fundamentally different in theory, scope of application and specific operations. Chiropractic reflex therapy only adjusts the spine and related soft tissues, and does not involve the joints and soft tissues in other parts of the body. Its theoretical basis is the nerve reflex theory. It is more appropriate to regard it as a simple chiropractic therapy. Osteopathy is a complete set of techniques that can adjust bones, joints and soft tissues in all parts of the body, and has a much wider range of applications.
