What is osteopathy?
What does an osteopath do?
How does it fit in healthcare?

When it doesn’t fit neatly in a box, it is often rejected. Osteopathy is one of those practices that resists being confined to a single category. It is not medicine in the narrow sense, nor physiotherapy, nor psychotherapy — yet it shares common ground with all of them.

This in-between position has sometimes led to misunderstanding, but also reveals its true value: osteopathy complements the wider medical field by addressing what often gets overlooked — the body’s capacity to adapt, regulate, and sustain health.

In my newest article I share how I have come to understand osteopathy, my role as an osteopath over the past 18 years, and see it in an evolving healthcare landscape.

"Pouvez-vous m'aider?"

C’est une question que l’on me pose souvent. Derrière, il y a parfois des années d’errance médicale, des symptômes inexpliqués, des consultations multiples… sans solution.

Ma réponse ? Nous ne saurons pas tant que vous n’aurez pas essayé. Mais en une ou deux séances, vous le saurez.

J’ai accompagné des personnes souffrant de troubles très variés: persistante, , , troubles ou du … en combinaison avec des douleurs de , épaules...Des symptômes parfois qualifiés de , mais qui révèlent souvent un déséquilibre plus profond du système nerveux autonome.

La – qu’elle soit liée au stress, au ou à d’autres causes – se manifeste différemment chez chacun. Elle reflète un dérèglement des capacités naturelles de régulation du corps.

Avec l'ostéopathie qui inclus The Reaset Approach, un soin corporel que j’ai développé, l’objectif n’est pas de traiter un symptôme, mais de restaurer un état de régulation autonome profonde. Dans cet état de recentrage, le corps retrouve sa capacité à s’équilibrer et à initier un processus de guérison.

Alors, si vous vous posez la question si je peux vous aider...

Essayez. Votre corps vous donnera la réponse.

HAS COVID-19 SLOWED US DOWN?

I recently read that COVID-19 has left broader, lingering effects on the population. Research shows that many people who’ve had COVID-19 are now more prone to illness and recurrent health issues. However, these cases don’t qualify as long COVID, where symptoms persist over a prolonged period after infection.
In a flash, it dawned on me: from a certain perspective, COVID-19 has slowed us down—delaying recovery, tampering with our immune systems, affecting cognitive function, and reducing our capacity to adapt and manage change. And this is happening at a time when we need adaptability the most.

While our evolutionary pace has slowed, technology continues to accelerate the rate of environmental change. In my mind’s eye, I could see how the conflict between biology and culture is worsening, rather than closing.

I’m not a scientist but a practitioner. I hear from my patients how they feel less resilient and more prone to illness without a clear reason. They regularly develop musculoskeletal problems and other health issues, including mental health struggles, without fully understanding why.

Could it be that our biological resistance has slowed, while our stress response becomes more active in defence?

Struggling with and its lingering symptoms?

In my latest article, I explore the connection between , , and (a condition where certain cells become overly sensitive and release too many inflammatory substances like histamine and cytokines).

I highlight the importance of addressing stress and dysautonomia to reduce inflammation and improve the effectiveness of long-covid and the associated symptoms like Mast Cell Activation Syndrome.

Recently I’ve been reflecting on Dr. Robert Sapolsky’s views on free will. A subject he as described in his book “Determined: A Science of Life without Free Will” where he argues that free will is an illusion, positing that our choices and behaviours are entirely determined by biological and environmental factors beyond our control. I can follow his reasoning but then I got to wonder about how where the placebo effect would fit in his theory. This can seem paradoxical at first glance, but seems they can be reconciled.

It was my believe that the placebo effect typically involved some level of expectation or belief influencing physiological outcomes, which might initially seem to require an act of free will. But if free will is an illusion, as Dr Sapolsky argues, then understanding how a placebo effect can still occur under determinism becomes an interesting puzzle… well I thought so anyway 😅

Time for change...?!

This probably needs lots more explanation... but humor me, read it and tell what you make of it.

Let's just say that maybe, just maybe it’s time to step away from our mind over matter focus when faced with problems and challenges, and instead consider how matter influences mind… because that is what science is telling us how we really function 😉

This is a work in progress based on my own thoughts and those of Professor R. Sapolsky’s books, including his latest, “Determined”, as well…

When past and present collide, stress sets in... and the future becomes uncertain.

The clash between our evolutionary past and the demands of modern life is probably one of the most underestimated factors why physical and mental health disorders are rising and that traditional treatment approaches fall short.

In our fast-changing world, stress has become a ubiquitous aspect of daily life. But why has stress, a general adaptive response meant to…

What a lovely message to wake up to this morning 😇

It's an unfortunate observation that many in the medical profession appear to have lost the art of healing that starts with connection. But also, I see that little attention is given to the fact that these fast-changing times necessitate another, more integral approach to address today's health and wellbeing challenges, whose symptoms are multimodal and often unexplainable (because they are seen as separate issues), but do have common ground. At the moment, I’m but one of a selected – but hopefully growing – few that understands and puts this knowledge into practice, and I’m glad people like this patient eventually find me, but I hope that more with multimodal and what are called medically unexplained symptoms will find me earlier in their search for health and healing.

New times necessitate new concepts to better understand the evolving health and wellbeing challenges they engender. Thus, let me introduce to you the “Biological Footprint”—a term I've coined to highlight one of the most significant ill-makers of our era.

Currently, little attention is paid to how many of today's health challenges, such as musculoskeletal disorders and mental health problems, are related to anthropogenic environmental changes, work-related pressures, and lifestyle factors—in other words, our "Biological Footprint."
