Dr. Andrew still established the practice of osteopathy in the late 1800's In the United State of America he believed using 'hands on' techniques to improve the blood circulation and correct biomechanics ,without using any drugs. Osteopaths treats the whole body and try to balance the whole body instead of the area of the pain , osteopaths believe the body as a whole. Osteopathy recognizes the relationship between structure and function. A simple analogy is the garden hose. If it is twisted (distorted structure) it can't function optimally. Similarly if our human structure is compromised due to posture, injury, traumatic or lifestyle patterns then our physiology is compromised. Circulation, nerve supply, hormone secretion etc are compromised. So when our body is "tuned well" it performs well. Stretching and releasing connective tissues, e.g. muscles, tendons and fascia that inhibit mobility Strengthening unstable joint through muscle conditioning Enhancing circulation and lymphatic drainage Improving nerve supply Educating about diet, exercise and lifestyle choices What Happens When You Visit an Osteopath? 1.
