About the Business

I started in the health care field in 2000 as a physiotherapist in Germany, where I specialised in post-surgery rehabilitation. After a few years I noticed how the closed down view of physiotherapy was treating mainly symptoms instead of causes, and although most patients got better, there were too many that kept coming back with the same symptoms. Especially back pain was difficult to treat with techniques that relied mainly on exercises.

While exercises are a great prevention of pain, once patients were in pain, exercising seemed to acerbate the symptoms instead of helping them. Then I discovered osteopathy as a treatment that looks at more than just the "bit that hurts". This approach seemed to make more sense. Osteopathy looks for the cause of the symptom, not just the area of the body that expresses the symptom.
