Consultation
A consultation at the office takes place according to the following diagram:
History
This is the interview phase that takes place at the start of a consultation. It allows me to target your reason for visiting, your symptoms as well as your general condition, your medical history and your lifestyle.
The osteopathic assessment
It is a series of specific palpatory tests that allows me to determine mobility restrictions likely to cause blockages as well as pain.
The treatment
I will then set up the most suitable treatment for your health using various techniques: soft, visceral, cranial. The objective is to restore a correct range of motion to the joint and to release all the tensions in the soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascias, etc.)
Explanations
I always take the time at the end of the consultation to explain the treatment I performed so that you understand your mode of operation and the different elements that led you to have pain and come to consult me._cc781905-5cde-3194 -bb3b-136bad5cf58d_

ATHLETES
The accompaniment of your sports activities by an osteopath is strongly recommended.
​
The use of osteopathy is common in sports, it helps to optimize sports performance.
During an effort you solicit the muscular and articular structures in an important way.
The osteopathic treatment of the sportsman allows a better concentration before a sporting deadline, as well as an optimal recovery after the effort.

Tissue and joint treatment improves flexibility and quality of movement, improving your coordination and endurance. An imbalance can lead to additional energy expenditure as well as “premature wear” of the structures.
