Structural Therapy

For the treatment of back pain, the most appropriate osteopathic therapy is structural therapy.

Structural Therapy

Structural Osteopathy considers the body from a biomechanical perspective, analyzes joint mobility, and addresses asymmetries in every body region.

What is the therapy for?

Structural therapy helps correct poor posture, pain from sedentary lifestyle, and joint restrictions that generate stiffness and inflammation.

In cases of hyperlordosis or hyperkyphosis, this approach mobilizes the vertebrae to restore corrective alignment to the body and improve posture.

What does structural therapy work on?

After performing a thorough diagnosis, the patient is approached with targeted maneuvers and very rapid releases called thrust, in a completely safe and clinically supported manner.

The objective

According to the principles of Structural Osteopathy, all joints of the human body are subject to different degrees of movement, which manifest on spatial planes. Following joint stress or trauma, the joint may experience limitations in multiple degrees of movement.

The osteopath, through Structural Osteopathy techniques, seeks the proper joint alignment and restores correct movement.

Joint release allows for freedom from tension and fluid, natural body movement.
