Orthotherapy
WHAT IS ORTHOTHERAPY?
Orthotherapy is the combination of kinesitherapy and massage therapy, two recognized manual approaches.
It is primarily aimed at the muscles and joints, with a clear objective: to promote optimal functioning of the musculoskeletal system.
Thanks to a variety of techniques tailored to each person's needs, orthotherapy allows to:
- relieve tension,
- improve mobility,
- and prevent postural imbalances.
WHAT ORTHOTHERAPY ASSESSES:
- The consequences of physical problems: their impact on your bodily functions and daily activities.
- The characteristics of your activities: work, sports, hobbies, personal routines.
- Your specific needs: targeted body areas, symptoms, frequency, duration of discomfort.
- The joints and muscles: if necessary, to make an accurate diagnosis.
Interdisciplinary approach
Orthotherapy can be integrated into a comprehensive care plan, in collaboration with other health professionals, for personalized support.
