Osteopathic treatment is rooted in the belief that the body is an interconnected unit, with its systems and structures working in harmony. And when it comes to stress and anxiety, this interconnectedness plays a pivotal role.
Osteopathic treatment involves addressing the body’s overactive nervous system, tight muscles, headaches, digestive issues, as well as joint pains. Our Manual Osteopathic Therapist, Mindy, will pay particular attention to the muscles around the thoracic spine, this is where the sympathetic nervous system, responsible for the ‘fight or flight’ response, is located. By focusing here, Mindy will identify exactly where your anxiety and stress is impacting you and will be able to provide you with techniques you can include in your day-to-day life which will help you manage the effects of your stress and anxiety.
