DOES OSTEOPATHY TREAT THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM?

Osteopathy tries to move beyond just fixing symptoms, though this is understandably the first priority. Rather it aims to 'figure out the puzzle' and effectively make changes so that symptoms are much less likely to return in the future. Sometimes the causes (there are rarely just one!) lie outside the body (such as the ergonomics of an office workstation, a car seat and so on) or sometimes they lie 'within' the body (such as a stiff unyielding part of the spine, a poor sleep pattern, and so on).
