๐Ÿฆด Shoulder pain that wonโ€™t go away?
โ€จItโ€™s often not the joint itself โ€” itโ€™s your muscles.

Worried about a frozen shoulder, arthritis, or joint damage? In most cases, itโ€™s actually muscle overuse and tension behind the pain.

When muscles stay in the wrong position for too long (like at your desk...), they become strained and form trigger points which are small, tense knots that can radiate pain through your shoulder, neck, and arm.

We usually donโ€™t notice until itโ€™s too tense.

๐Ÿ’†โ€โ™‚๏ธ Osteopathic treatment helps release these tight spots, restore balance, and bring your body back to ease.โœจ

๐Ÿšซ Myth: Osteopathy is only โ€œsickness of the bones.โ€
โ€จโœ… Fact: The word comes from the Greek โ€œosteonโ€ (bone) and โ€œpathosโ€ (suffering/feeling).

When osteopathy was founded in the 19th century, it described how problems in the bones and structure could affect the whole body.

Today, osteopathy is not limited to bones โ€” it considers muscles, fascia, joints, circulation, the nervous system, and even internal organs (viscera). ๐ŸŒฟ

Itโ€™s a holistic approach to restoring balance and health โ€” not just a focus on skeletons. ๐ŸŒ€

โœจ Osteopathy = Whole-body wellbeing, not just bone care.

Both osteopathy and physiotherapy focus on improving body function & pain but differ in approach:

Physiotherapy uses various methods like exercise, electrotherapy etc. focusing on specific injury areas and strengthening through movement.

๐Ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐จ๐ฉ๐š๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐œ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ญ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ, however, is based on three core pillars:

-๐’๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐œ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐š๐ฅ: Focuses on muscles, joints, fascia, and connective tissues.

- ๐•๐ข๐ฌ๐œ๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ฅ: Addresses the health of internal organs, blood vessels, and the lymphatic system.

- ๐‚๐ซ๐š๐ง๐ข๐จ๐ฌ๐š๐œ๐ซ๐š๐ฅ Involves the central nervous system, skull, spine, cerebrospinal fluid, and surrounding tissues.

While manual therapy is often confused with osteopathy, it primarily targets the structural aspect. Osteopathy stands apart by also addressing visceral and craniosacral systemsโ€”making it a more comprehensive approach.

โœจ One isnโ€™t better than the otherโ€”they often complement each other for optimal recovery. โœจ

โœจ What is Osteopathy? โœจ

Osteopathy is a holistic approach to healthcare that enhances the bodyโ€™s natural ability to self-regulate and heal.

During a session, an osteopath uses manual treatment techniques to support the body's recovery process. The focus is on identifying the **root cause** of discomfort by assessing the balance between muscles, joints, nerves, organs, fascia and blood flow.
