Osteopathy is a type of alternative medicine that emphasizes physical manipulation of the body’s muscle tissue and bones. Practitioners of osteopathy are referred to as osteopaths. Its name derives from Ancient Greek “bone” and “pain, suffering”. Osteopathic manipulation is the core set of techniques in osteopathy.
Osteopathy is a drug-free, non-invasive manual therapy that aims to improve health across all body systems by manipulating and strengthening the musculoskeletal framework.
