What to expect in my first Osteopathy session?

Osteopathy always puts Your Holistic Health first, and focuses not only on singular symptoms.
This approach is called Salutogenesis (latin: salus “health or wellbeing” und genesis “development”).

For our first appointment we reserve around an hour for you, in order to understand your current conditions and possible causes on a holistic point of view. Not only are your current physical conditions important for us, but also your daily habits, living conditions, nutrition habits, sport, hobbies, your past and future goals.

We mainly use gentle, pleasant and relaxing treatment techniques, so most patients find our osteopathy treatments very relaxing. We use joint mobilisation, myofascial release, visceral techniqus for your inner organs, craniosacral and biodynamic Osteopathic techniques for your central nervous system. We will also use balancing integration techniques, so that your body system can incorporate the treatment benefits successfully. We will also analyse your posture, working routines and daily habits, so together we will find suitable streching or strengthening exercises that you can do at home, in order to maintain a longlasting results and optimum health.
