Osteopathy In Gozo
Osteopathy takes a holistic and patient-centered approach to health care, based on the principle that a persons sense of wellbeing and their body’s function can be improved by manual treatment of their musculoskeletal structure.
An osteopathic assessment is undertaken to treat your issue, whether it be an injury to manage pain, improve mobility, enhance your health and wellbeing or prevent disease. This involves a diagnosis and then treatment of joints, muscles, ligaments, nerves and spinal structures using gentle, safe and effective manual techniques. Treatment may include gentle joint manipulation, stretching, massage or joint balancing techniques.
