Osteopathy also known as osteopathic medicine was founded in the 19th century by an American physician named Dr Andrew Taylor Still and since it has become common all over the world. Osteopathy and its study is now regulated in most of the developed countries of the world including Australia and there is no shortage of clinics which provide a wide range of therapies and treatments which are related to the Osteopathic medicine and Matrix Health & Performance is one notable addition to the industry. The clinic covers a number of areas that helps an individual function better.
The study of osteopathy is based around the functions of musculoskeletal system and how it influences every part of the body, the study believes that if musculoskeletal system is not aligned and our nervous system is not working the way it should then the body’s healing capacity is reduced and we are not able to function properly. Since osteopathy is about the entire musculoskeletal system it can treat a number of different conditions, the individual exercise and massage programs can heal back and neck pain which would simply not go away by any other type of treatment.
Headaches which related to cervical and neuro functioning issues are also targeted in the therapy and the results have been great, the treatment is very effective against headaches which were constant, only the scale of the headache would vary but the patients would constantly feel heavy headedness. Arthritis and sciatica pain are among the other conditions that are treated by osteopathy medicine and treatment. These two types of pain are simply excruciating and the patient would do anything to get relief, most of the what we get in the name of treatment is either short lived or is not effective at all but osteopathy has proven to be the long-term solution.
