What is Osteopathy?

In most countries, osteopathy is a form of complementary medicine, emphasising a holistic approach and the skilled use of a range of manual and physical treatment interventions in the prevention and treatment of disease.

In practice, this most commonly relates to musculoskeletal problems such as back and neck pain.

Osteopathic principles teach that treatment of the musculoskeletal system (bones, muscles and joints) facilitates the recuperative powers of the body.
