WHY DOES OSTEOPATHY WORK?
Osteopathy = Hands On Medicine
Osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM), where both diagnosis and treatment are carried out with the hands, is relaxing and offers many health benefits. Lymph movement is facilitated which is vital to health. Where lymph is not moving you will likely experience pain, tenderness, and inflammation. Osteopathy helps encourage this process. Shock, trauma, injury, or the many mental and physical stresses of living in this busy world can cause a variety of negative symptoms in the body-mind. Helping release, relax and encourage healing of these tensions is crucial.
Osteopathy
Supplemented by Dr. Teves' simple, gentle Polydiaphragmatic Breathing method, you will feel increased vitality and wholeness. Many patients who practice their breathing experience improvements in their general sense of ease, a decrease of inflammatory pain, and relief from other symptoms simply by breathing more effectively and consciously. You'll be amazed that breathing more fully leads to such benefit.
