Chaim was in his 60s and he could barely walk.
Many of his joints were partial fused by ankylosing spondylitis.
The safest thing we could do was maybe the best thing we could do.
He got his first osteopathic treatment and his pain was significantly better, and he was able to walk with much less difficulty.
Why? Did it change the arthritis in his joints?
Isn't arthritis when the joint structure and cartilage breaks down? You can't change that with your hands!
Hold on cowboy. That's an outdated understanding of arthritis.
The modern understanding of arthritis goes way beyond breakdwon and bone and cartilage. All kinds of arthritis happen through a complex process that also involves inflammation, dysfunction of tissues around the the joint, dysfunction of the muscles and nerves that control joint movement, and overall loss of coordination of movement patterns.
Osteopathy works at multiple levels to enhance the expression of health through the mind and body. Gentle techniques balance ligament, tendon, muscle, membrane, nerve, and fluid, to allow normal flow of fluids, reduction of metabolic wastes, correction of neuromuscular coordination, and integration of the whole system. And people feel really good aftewards!
Osteopathy is an excellent part of holistic management of arthritis. Just like any chronic illness, the best management includes careful use of conventional medicine together with natural healing to enhance the body-mind's intrinsic healing capacity. It's important to pay attention to three realms of care and healing: 1. Mind-body, 2. Metabolic/Biochemical, and 3. Mechanical/structural.
