Intrinsi Osteopathy

Description:

Osteopathic therapy is generally for you if you are dealing with back pain or other musculoskeletal injuries, such as knee or shoulder pain. It is a hands-on manual therapy that helps the body to move better and function better on a biomechanical level. As osteopathic therapists, we understand the body’s interrelated parts and the dynamic relationship between them. We can easily explain how a stiff hip can cause a sore shoulder or how knee pain can be traced back to a tight back. Osteopathic therapists can help explain how stress from work or home affect your body’s ability to heal. We understand that the key to recovering from long-term pain may require both a course of treatment and lifestyle changes. Manual osteopathic therapists assess, diagnose and treat disorders of the body’s structure as it relates to any of the body’s systems: muscular, skeletal, respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive, nervous or reproductive. In fact, osteopathic therapists work not only with the spine and joints, but with tissues, scars, fascia and fluids as well. We use manipulations to joints or organs and gentle movements to correct biomechanical dysfunctions. By restoring proper mechanics to an area, we allow the normal flow of fluids and improve function. By easing restrictions in this way, your body has the chance to mend and you can be healthy and comfortable once again.Patients commonly seek treatment from our Osteopathic therapists for: . back and neck pain. sciatica. headaches. pains in peripheral joints such as shoulders, knees and ankles. work-related and repetitive strain injuries. sports-related injuries
