History of Osteopathy
In the late 19th century, American physician Andrew Taylor Still founded osteopathy, a revolutionary medical concept driven by his belief in the body’s innate ability to heal itself. He pioneered the idea that proper musculoskeletal alignment and the flow of bodily fluids are essential for optimal health. This innovative approach, founded in 1874, aimed to treat the root cause of ailments through manual manipulation and non-invasive techniques.
Osteopathy quickly gained recognition, evolving into a globally respected alternative medical practice. By empowering patients to take an active role in their health journey and emphasising natural healing processes, osteopathy offers a safe and effective option for enhancing quality of life. Its global acceptance and rich history make it an inspiring testament to human ingenuity in the pursuit of wellness, aiming to provide long-term relief and reduce reliance on medication or invasive procedures.
