Reasons to consult
Joint pain and arthritis
Joint pain and arthritis are common with age. Osteopathy does not cure arthritis, but can relieve it by maintaining mobility around the affected joints and releasing the tension that adds to the discomfort. The techniques are gentle and adapted to each person, with no forced manipulation.
Stiffness and loss of mobility
With age, joints stiffen and mobility decreases, which makes everyday movement harder. With light, adapted mobilizations, the osteopath helps maintain flexibility and preserve range of movement, to stay active for longer.
Back, hip and knee pain
The back, hips and knees are the most used and most often painful areas with age. The osteopath works gently on their mobility and the surrounding tension to relieve pain and make walking and getting around easier.
After a fall (following medical advice)
After a fall, once a reassuring medical opinion has been obtained, tension and discomfort can linger. The osteopath supports recovery by releasing this tension and helping the body find its balance again, with especially gentle techniques suited to each person's fragility.
Balance issues related to tension
Some balance issues are kept up by tension in the neck, back and pelvis that disturbs the body's perception. By releasing this tension and improving mobility, osteopathy can contribute to better balance, alongside the necessary medical follow-up.
Maintaining mobility and independence
Maintaining mobility means preserving independence. With gentle, regular follow-up, the osteopath helps keep flexibility, relieve chronic pain and support everyday movement, to stay independent and comfortable for as long as possible.
Digestive and sleep discomfort
Digestive discomfort and sleep problems are common with age. By gently releasing tension in the tummy, diaphragm and back, osteopathy can bring an overall sense of well-being, always alongside usual medical care.
A very gentle approach
Techniques are especially gentle and adapted to each person's fragility: light mobilizations, no forced manipulation. The aim is to maintain flexibility, relieve pain and support daily life.
When to consult?
To maintain mobility, relieve chronic pain or after medical advice following a fall. With conditions (osteoporosis, a prosthesis…), techniques are adapted accordingly.
How a session works
About 45 minutes, respecting your pace and comfort. A review of your history, a gentle examination, tailored treatment, then everyday mobility advice.
