Osteopathy

Osteopathy is a holistic manual medicine .

Holistic means that the body is considered as a unit that contains a physical , chemical and emotional part where structure and function are interdependent.

Osteopathy is based on the anatomy , physiology and biomechanics .

If anatomical structures with decreased mobility, the role of the body are unbalanced .

The / osteopath seeks the cause of this dysfunction and try to restore the body's balance , called homeostasis.

Osteopathy works with all body tissues and fluids .


beginning

- The body is a unit .

All (structural, visceral , nervous , vascular , parts

lymphatic, emotional) work together. A dysfunction of one party may affect one another.


- There is a relationship between structure and function.

When the structure changes , the function also changes and vice versa. For example : When tissues near a joint harden (structure) , mobility is decreased ( function).


- There is a mechanism of self -regulation in the body.

The body uses different mechanisms to keep its balance (homeostasis ) and defend against internal and external influences . dysfunction may prevent auto- regulation. To solve dysfunctions balance can be restored .


- The nervous system and the movement of fluids play an essential role in maintaining health .

Decreased mobility of an anatomical structure can affect these systems .
