Chiropractic and osteopathy are manual therapies that specifically treat functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Both methods are based on the assumption that the body is an interconnected system – structurally, functionally and energetically.
In our practice, we combine the knowledge of Western manual medicine with the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). We do not view misalignments, tensions and blockages in isolation, but as an expression of a deeper imbalance in the entire system.
Chiropractic focuses on the targeted adjustment of blocked joints – especially in the area of the spine. Gentle, precise impulses are used to release movement restrictions, improve nerve supply and stimulate the body’s self-regulation.
Osteopathy focuses on tension patterns in the connective tissue, fascia and organs. Sensitive manual techniques are used to harmonize mobility, tissue supply and internal dynamics.
In combination with TCM, we see both methods as a way to promote the flow of Qi and blood throughout the body, to bring Yin and Yang into balance and to stabilize the energy centers in the long term.
