Osteopathy and Aesthetics

In a centre for leg function, manual therapy can be used to rebalance those mechanisms that are at the origin of aesthetic problems of the lower limb, e.g. cellulite or localised adiposity.

Osteopathic treatment can be an excellent means of preventing and treating cellulite.

The osteopath can also work to correct incorrect posture, which can have truly deleterious effects on the circulation and lymphatic system, creating skin blemishes and localised fat deposits.

• Circulatory disorders
• Lymphatic congestions
• Cellulite
• Scar assessment
• Swellings
• Preparation and recovery from surgery

Manual therapy can do a lot in the field of prevention… it can also give suggestions on how to sleep, stand, exercise and also help to change incorrect postural habits acquired over time.

• Preventing the appearance of symptoms
• Asymptomatic structural dysfunctions
• Weakening of natural defence systems
• Postural imbalances
  Evaluation of previous traumas, contractures, scars
  Recurring pain

The osteopath can play an important role as support in the pre- and post-operative phases.

In the pre-operative phase: he works by increasing elasticity and laxity of the tissues, preparing them for surgery.

In the post-operative phase: acts to reduce any tissue tension, thanks to fascial techniques that help the correct restoration of tissue elasticity and functionality.

It is also useful in the case of breast-feeding as it improves lymphatic circulation by improving drainage, avoiding fluid stagnation and facilitating harmonious recovery. It also helps prevent the onset of muscle pain and joint tension.

Pregnancy and Pre-postpartum

Valuable support also in the gynaecological field. It can help in the treatment of premenstrual or menstrual syndrome or disorders related to menopause and pregnancy.

Many disorders are also linked to pelvic floor dysfunctions and prolapses caused by postpartum or advancing age. Working with osteopathic treatment can restore proper function to the body and give women a better daily routine.
