Osteopathy is a system of manual therapy that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal conditions and their impact on the body's nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic systems. It aims to restore balance and proper functioning to the body by manipulating and stretching joints, muscles, and tissues. Practitioners believe that this approach can improve overall health and well-being, alleviate pain and discomfort, and support the body's natural ability to heal itself.
