Psychosomatics

By: | Tags:

In our work, we always remember that your health depends on physical, mental and spiritual aspects. We believe in working with the patient as an integrated whole—dealing not just with symptoms, but trying to take into account individual characteristics and feelings through careful listening. Sometimes people complain about headaches or back pain, but during the visit it becomes obvious that the problem is related not only to physiological, but also to psychological health.

Part 2. Physical examination and corrective measures. After the initial conversation described in the first part of this post, I start with a physical examination of your body.

 When we have a headache, we take a painkiller. Right? But think about it: isn’t that the same as an old telephone? You can cut the wires and there will be no annoying calls, but it doesn’t mean that somebody stopped trying to reaching you. It’s better to answer the call and to realize that your tailbone or neck are calling your head asking to return them to a more physiological and comfortable condition.

Osteopathy-Scoliosis

By: | Tags:

Very often parents visit me with kids who have scoliosis. They all ask two questions: Why did it happened? And is it possible to cure? Why it happened… this is a difficult question. In order to find the answer we should begin from pregnancy and delivery. We have all heard about birth traumas, and in our imagination we might picture awfull images of damaged babies. But rarely are birth traumas revealed by clear symptoms. With excessively strong contractions, with asymmetric (asynclitic) head insertion, with excessive efforts of the midwife (when […]
