Osteopathy is a method of care, manual, which aims to treat mobility restrictions affecting all the structures that make up the body. It can be loss of mobility in the joints, muscles, ligaments or viscera. It requires specific skills and a perfect knowledge of the functioning of the human body.
The osteopath therefore intervenes when there is a mechanical problem to be resolved.
Osteopathy is not indicated in the inflammatory phase, nor even in the acute phase of trauma. It is a question of solving a post-traumatic mechanical problem, then if necessary, the doctor or the physiotherapist will take care of the postural pain, with also an important role in the therapeutic education of the patients in order to prevent rather than relieve again. .
In the case of athletes, an osteopath can help on the one hand to repair traumatic shocks, to relieve pain, and on the other hand to prevent a mechanical problem as well as to improve performance.
Among players of padel, the joints are strained. Changes of direction, jumps, hitting balls in various positions, body imbalances, nothing spares your muscles and joints.
The practice of osteopathy participates in the maintenance, mechanical repair, recovery and physical preparation of the athlete.
Top athletes resort to osteopathy several times a month. In athletes who practice several times a week, it is interesting to consult once a month or every 1 months. Finally, and for everyone, organizing a visit to your osteopath once a year is the minimum required.

Hello,
First of all it is osteopathy and not osteopathy as misspelled.
Then the osteopath is and must be a caregiver, he must respond to the emergency, and if we want the inflammation to stop, then we must first solve the mechanical problem if there is.
Handling is neither dangerous nor risky. If done well, it is painless and a liberating sound accompanies it.
I consider you as an osteopath for 26 years that we must not drift towards a "well-being" activity, but must be caregivers in their own right.
Finally, an annual visit for those who know each other's weaknesses and thus restoring a little joint movement is a good thing.
For a crazy time is given to me to react to an article...
