Osteopathy, at any age of life

During childbirth, the newborn experience important pressures on his whole body, especially on his skull, even if the childbirth went well.

This phenomenon is amplified if the delivery is very long or very fast and if forceps or spatulas are needed to extract the baby. In this case, the baby's passage through the mother's pelvis will sometimes mark her skull and therefore slightly deform it.

In addition, the tensions caused by childbirth can lead to digestive disorders (regurgitation, constipation, colic) as well as nervousness, anxiety and sleeping difficulties. These tensions can be treated by your osteopath from the first days of the newborn's life.

When to consult for your baby ?

  • Asymmetry of the infant's head: flat or plagiocephaly, flat or curved forehead, hump, half-closed eye, detached ear, oedema, use of forceps or suction cup.
  • Difficult childbirth: umbilical cord around the baby's neck, breech position, cesarean section, difficult passage of the baby, prematurity
  • Digestive disorders: diarrhea, constipation, colic, wiggling, crying
  • Torticollis, difficulty turning the head to one side
  • Agitation, nervousness, sleep disorders, crying, anger, anxiety
  • Baby's lazy eye (converging or diverging)
  • Suction disorders
  • Chronic ear infections or rhinitis

Growth is an important step in development. Each child's growth is unique and can cause pain or occasional imbalances.

Osteopathic follow-up of the child and teenager is important so that he or she does not grow up with dysfunctions that can lead to various disorders in adulthood. This follow-up is very important if the child has scoliosis. Static disorders (scoliosis, lordosis, kyphosis) are a sign of poor adaptation of the body. The causes, which can be visceral, traumatic, cranial, will be determined by a specific diagnosis of the osteopath. Appropriate correction techniques will improve these spinal disorders.

Children undergoing orthodontic treatment. Wearing braces creates tensions in the jaw and skull bones that can cause stress, headaches, neck and back pain or difficulties to concentrate.

When to consult for your child and/or teenager?

  • Prevention: annual check-up, beginning of sport activities or intensive practice of a sport, first steps, preparation for a sporting competition, wearing a dental appliance
  • Scoliosis, scoliotic attitude, child not standing straight
  • Back pain, muscle aches, osteoarticular pains
  • Growth cartilage disorders (Osgood_Schlatter, Severs, Scheuermann)
  • Tendinitis (Achilles tendon, elbow, shoulder...), adductor pain and pubalgia (football)
  • Headaches, migraines, pains caused by wearing a dental appliance
  • Abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, bloating, regurgitation
  • Difficulties to concentrate, dyslexia, nervousness, hyperactivity, torticollis

  • Hypertonia or hypotonia, psychomotor disorders, delays
  • Some functional hearing and visual disorders
  • Enuresis or "bed-wetting"
  • Wearing orthopaedic insoles

Whatever the profession, everyone spends many hours a day in the same posture, or repeating the same movements.

Sitting in front of a computer, carrying objects, doing manual work with the same arm, working in difficult positions or simply feeling stressed, are the causes of many musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).

Attentive to these muscular or joint disorders related to working conditions, the osteopath uses a method of care that seeks to identify and treat mobility restrictions that can affect the entire human body.

The appearance of the first pains and tensions should encourage you to consult an osteopath who will perform a complete check-up. It will restore the body's ability to adapt to the constraints it is undergoing.

When to consult?

  • Back pain: lumbar, dorsal, cervical, torticollis, herniated disc, disc protrusion
  • Neuralgia: sciatica, cruralgia, cervico-brachial neuralgia, intercostal neuralgia
  • Pelvic pain: sacralgia, coccygodynia (coccyx pain)
  • Functional urinary and anal incontinence
  • Consequences of operations
  • Headaches, some dizziness
  • Muscle pain: contractures, cramps, slamming, stiffness, tendonitis
  • Arthrosis, arthritis, osteoporosis
  • Joint pain: hip, knee, ankle, fingers, shoulder, neck
  • Digestive disorders: abdominal pain, functional colitis, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, epigastric pain, heavy eructation, gastric reflux
  • Posttraumatic consultations
  • Sleep disorders, depression, depression, depression, anxiety, nervousness, stress

Over the years, the body is subject to transformations that gradually lead to a decrease in all its functions, leading to the appearance of disabilities.

These restrictions can lead to loss of autonomy and isolation, and have a significant psychological and social impact.

Being followed as soon as possible and as regularly as possible by an osteopath allows you to regain and strengthen your functions by working on the general mobility of your body.

Maintaining a good physical and mental state through preventive actions throughout life guarantees a good health. For example, osteopathic treatments improve balance, reduces pain in short and long term and thus contribute to improving quality of life.

When to consult?

  • Back pain: lumbar, dorsal, cervical, herniated disc, disc protrusion
  • Neuralgia: sciatica, cruralgia, cervico-brachial neuralgia, intercostal neuralgia
  • Pelvic pain: sacralgia, coccygodynia (coccyx pain)
  • Functional urinary and anal incontinence
  • Headaches, some dizziness
  • Muscle pain: contractures, cramps, slamming, stiffness, tendonitis
  • Arthrosis, arthritis, osteoporosis
  • Joint pain: hip, knee, ankle, fingers, shoulder, neck
  • Digestive disorders: abdominal pain, functional colitis, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, epigastric pain, heavy eructation, gastric reflux
  • Sleep disorders, depression, depression, depression, anxiety, nervousness, stress

Any mobility loss of joints, muscles, ligaments or visceral system can cause an imbalance in your body. This is manifested to athletes by various symptoms, from simple contracture to chronic pain, altering performances.

Through his specific action on the whole body, the osteopath knows how to recognize and treat the real causes of pain limiting the practice of sports activity.

Through its effectiveness, it improves muscle potential and power, joint flexibility and respiratory capacity. Osteopathic treatment also allows a better concentration before the event and optimizes recovery after the exercise.

When to consult?

  • Prevention: annual review, competition preparation, before the start of an activity, performance improvement
  • Back pain, scoliosis, joint pain
  • History of fracture, sprain, surgery
  • Sprain, tendonitis (tennis or golf elbow, Achilles tendon)
  • Muscle pain: contracture, breakdown, elongation, rupture and disinsertion
  • Pubalgia and adductor pathology (football)
  • Wearing orthopaedic insoles
  • Effort shortness of breath, difficult recovery (between and after the tests)
  • Luxation and periarthritis
  • Post-operative, after a trauma

Of course, pregnancy is not a pathological condition, but it is accompanied by many changes in the body in a short period of time.

However, if this pregnancy occurs while the body is experiencing tensions, dysfunctions or mobility restrictions, adaptation to these changes will be disrupted and pain may appear. The osteopath's goal in this case will be, as always, to reharmonize the patient's body so that it can regain all its adaptive capacities.

For example, rapid weight gain leads to a change in posture that can cause spinal pain, most often lumbar and back pain, sometimes an acute low back pain (lumbago), sciatica or torticollis.

In this case the osteopath works to relax the spasms, decompress and restore the mobility of the joints in pain. Of course, the techniques used are chosen according to the term of the pregnancy and with respect for the comfort of the future mother.

Osteopathy is also useful in the treatment of digestive disorders (nausea, constipation, heaviness) and venous disorders related to pregnancy in order to relieve dysfunctions without taking oral medication contraindicated to pregnant women.

It may also be useful to consult your osteopath at the end of pregnancy to prepare your pelvis for childbirth and prevent the high stress that it will experience when the baby passes through.

When to consult?

DURING PREGNANCY:
  • Prevention: Pregnancy follow-up during the three trimesters, preparation for delivery
  • Back pain: lumbago, sciatica, cruralgia, dorsalgia and neck pain
  • Pelvic pain, tension, sacralgia, coccygodynia
  • Abdominal pain, constipation, bloating, nausea and vomiting, diaphragm contractures
  • Thoracic and intercostal pain
  • Angravism, fatigue, oppression, sleep disorders, depression or depression (baby blues)
  • Headaches and some dizziness
  • Circulatory disorders (phlebitis, heavy legs, water retention, edema)
AFTER THE BIRTH:

  • Baby blues, anxiety, depression, fatigue, stress

Prevention: a guarantee of health


Trauma, whether physical or emotional, old or undetected, can cause painful sequelae even years later.

The osteopath makes everyone aware that they are responsible for their own health, which they can preserve through regular osteopathic follow-up.
