After 9 years of practice you would be surprised at the result of the statistics to this question. My practice is located in a rather affluent area of Paris (the 16th arrondissement) and therefore, on the face of it, more favorable to well-being. Well, no!
Stress can come from anywhere: professional, family or even from oneself. Perfectionists will recognize themselves.
How can osteopathy help you?
Let's face it, it won't allow you to get your N+1 out of the way, or to coax your teenager once you get home. Its use will relieve you in the physical manifestations of your stress (daily fatigue etc). We will work together on the areas of your body that over-react to your stress. I will ask you to be participative during the session, and, with precise osteopathic techniques, I will work on the areas of your body that are affected by it.
I hope this article has helped you a little. I wish you all a great day.
