Structural osteopathy focuses on a physical, material and visible body. It mainly addresses dysfunctions of the musculoskeletal system for diagnosis and treatment.
Its main feature is the use of faster and more direct techniques, such as adjustment techniques. But it also uses indirect techniques, which are gentler and move toward tissue ease. In addition, there are other techniques such as GOT (General Osteopathic Techniques) that also help us to restore the mobility of all the other systems.
One of the principles of structural osteopathy is the direct relationship between the structure itself and its functionality. A restriction or change in the structure will eventually compromise that function.
