What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a holistic system of healthcare that uses a hands-on, non-invasive approach to restore balance within the body. At Still Waters Osteopathy, we believe that the body has an incredible ability to heal itself when in balance. Our treatments aim to address the root causes of discomfort, whether from injury, illness, or everyday stress, so that your body can function optimally.
When one part of your body is restricted or out of alignment, other areas must compensate, leading to discomfort, pain, or even illness. Osteopathy focuses on restoring harmony, ensuring that each part of your body works together in perfect balance.
Our treatments aim to:
- Relieve pain
- Restore function and mobility
- Enhance the body’s natural healing ability
At Still Waters, we believe your body is like a well-tuned engine—when it’s functioning as intended, you’ll have more energy for living a healthy, fulfilling life.
The Unique Benefits of Osteopathic Medicine
Founded by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still in the late 1800s, osteopathy emphasizes the body’s natural wisdom and its inherent ability to heal. At Still Waters, we take this philosophy to heart, using gentle, hands-on techniques that encourage the release of tension and the restoration of balance throughout the body.
Our specialized techniques address a wide variety of health concerns, especially those affecting the neurological and musculoskeletal systems. By understanding how illness or injury in one area of the body can impact other areas, our osteopaths provide comprehensive care designed to restore your overall wellbeing.
With our highly trained sense of touch, we identify subtle structural changes within the body. Our goal is to correct these imbalances, support the nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic systems, and help you find relief from discomfort or illness.
Key Osteopathic Techniques We Use:
- Cranial Osteopathy: Focuses on synchronizing the rhythm of the central nervous system to treat the whole body.
- Balanced Ligamentous Tension: Applies gentle pressure to joints and connective tissue to restore balance.
- High Velocity Low Amplitude (HVLA): A controlled, specific technique to improve alignment and release tension.
- Lymphatic Mobilization: Encourages movement and detoxification of the lymphatic system, boosting immunity.
- Muscle Energy Technique: Involves flexing certain muscles while holding the body in specific positions to relieve tension.
- Fascial Release: Gently stretches the fascia—the connective tissue that encases and connects all body tissues.
