Osteopathic treatment is intended to find the cause of a pain or illness, and the osteopath follows a chain of cause-and-effect. This means that the cause of the pain can originate in a completely different part of the body from where it is felt. He examines the muscles, ligaments, joints & spine areas, cranio-spinal cord and marrow, (craniosacral therapy) and the visceral system (internal organs). This holistic approach is important for a causal treatment.

In principle, osteopathy and its concept is aimed at all people of all ages, so I also treat babies, children and pregnant women.

My aim is to find the cause of the symptom, to treat it and thus to stimulate self-regulation and self-healing.

So-called ‘osteopathy’ was developed by the American physician Dr. A.T. Still (1828 – 1917) as a diagnostic and therapy concept. In patients he examined (Greek: ‘pathos’ = illness, suffering) he constantly found restrictions of movement in the skeletal system (Greek: ‘osteos’ = bones, skeleton, locomotor system) and so he called his treatment ‘osteopathy’.

Osteopathy is a medical system which uses manual techniques to diagnose the causes of illnesses, while simultaneously taking into account the patient as a whole. Its aim is to restore the integrity and order of the entire organism and its self-healing capabilities, and in the process detect and correct the malfunction of joints and tissue mobility in the body.

From an osteopahic point of view, good health is achieved when the different structures of the body are in optimal condition and work harmoniously together on all levels and are, therefore, in a state of homeostasis – the self-regulation of an organism.
