Cabinet d'Osteopathie Cotting Jacqueline (Bulle)

What is osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a science, an art and a philosophy of health care.

It is based on the concept that the body is a whole, and that health depends on the functional balance of all its structures.

As a complementary medicine, it focuses not only on physical symptoms, but also on the patient's lifestyle, habits and overall condition.

The benefits of osteopathy

The indications for osteopathic treatment are very broad. From newborn babies to the elderly, osteopaths can be consulted for a wide range of reasons. While "back pain" accounts for the majority of consultations, other functional disorders linked to digestion, headaches, sleep disorders or stress are also good reasons to consult an osteopath.

Osteopathy is also recommended for..:

• Pregnancy and post-partum care, as well as post-natal problems such as sleep disorders, restlessness, regurgitation, colic, congenital torticollis, plagiocephaly (cranial deformity)...

• Support for orthodontic treatment in children and adolescents.

• Support for postural disorders. (Scoliosis, compensation for trauma, surgery or pain...)

• Support in situations of stress, fatigue and difficulties in regaining balance.
