Your Body Is Self Healing
The concept behind osteopathy is that your body is able to heal itself. An osteopathic practitioner works with your body to help you self regulate and self heal. They are educated and skilled in using their hands to find out about the health of your tissues and body systems. From this, your osteopathic practitioner is able to determine the health of the overall person. This is a highly trained ability that requires years of continual training.
