What is Osteopathy
Classical Osteopathic Manual Therapy
At Theresa Lor, osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on form of manual therapy focused on restoring balance, mobility, and overall body function. Rather than simply treating symptoms, the approach is centered on identifying and addressing the root causes of pain and dysfunction.
Through precise manual techniques, osteopathic care at Theresa Lor may help with:
- Structural Alignment: Supporting harmony between muscles, joints, and body systems.
- Circulation & Nervous System Function: Improving blood flow and nerve communication
- Joint Mobility: Restoring natural movement in the spine and extremities.
Conditions Frequently Addressed at Theresa Lor
While osteopathy treats the body as a whole, many patients visit Theresa Lor for support with:
Postural Strain & Desk-Related Pain
Neck stiffness, upper back tension, and shoulder discomfort caused by prolonged sitting, screen use, and poor posture.
Chronic Headaches & Migraines
Addressing underlying tension and restrictions in the neck, jaw, and upper spine that may contribute to recurring headaches.
Stress & Tension-Related Discomfort
Reducing physical tension held in the body due to stress, which can impact sleep, breathing, and overall well-being.
A Personalized Approach to Theresa Lor
At Theresa Lor, osteopathy is based on the understanding that the body functions as one connected system. Pain or restriction in one area can affect other parts of the body.
Each treatment is tailored to you and focuses on:
- Understanding your lifestyle and health history
- Identifying and treating root causes
- Supporting long-term function and mobility
- Helping you stay active and pain-free
