General osteopathy and musculoskeletal disorders
Musculoskeletal disorders are the leading cause of work absence in Switzerland (Source: Federal Statistical Office, 2025). Osteopathy provides a holistic, drug-free and lasting approach to these conditions.
Back pain and low back pain
Back pain affects approximately 80% of Swiss adults at some point in their lives. Low back pain - pain in the lumbar region - can be acute (lumbago) or chronic, mechanical or radicular. Osteopathy identifies joint restrictions, muscle tension and postural compensations that maintain the pain, and gently corrects them.
- Acute lumbago and muscle spasms
- Disc herniations and protrusions
- Sacroiliac joint pain
- Postural pain related to desk work
- Consequences of falls or trauma
Neck pain, torticollis, headaches and bruxism (teeth grinding)
Neck pain particularly affects people who work in prolonged sitting positions. Acute torticollis, neck tension and cervicogenic headaches are very effectively treated by osteopathy. Techniques on the cervical vertebrae, the base of the skull and the neck muscles provide rapid and lasting relief. Migraines linked to musculoskeletal tension and cranial restrictions respond well to the craniosacral osteopathic approach.
Sciatica and femoral neuralgia
Sciatica is a pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, from the buttock down the leg, sometimes reaching the foot. It can result from a herniated disc, joint irritation or muscle contracture (piriformis syndrome). Osteopathy releases compressive structures and relieves nerve irritation without systematic recourse to painkillers.
