FAQ

  1. Are there books on visceral osteopathy?
    1. Yes, but they are embedded in the books "Scientific Osteopathic Approach to Patients with Low Back Pain"; "Scientific Osteopathic Approach to Patients with Cervical Pain" and " Scientific Osteopathic Approach to Patients with Abdominal Complaints". This is because visceral osteopathy doesn't stand on its own as a therapy form.
  2. Why aren't the books structured by body part?
    1. Because the books are structured by patient complaints. This much more useful because that is what we get presented in daily practice.
  3. Can the book content immediately be used in practice?
    1. Yes, but the tests and techniques must be trained to get the skills in your routine.
  4. Can a physiotherapist also use the practical information in the books?
    1. Yes, physiotherapists also see patients with pain and complaints and their basic training was also hands-on.
  5. Is everything in the books proven scientifically?
    1. No, but everything has been checked through several scientific search engines for proof and evidence. Unfortunately, as in medicine not everything is proven but the effect and results of tests and techniques that are not scientifically proven are based on basic medical sciences such as biomechanics, pathology, anatomy, neurology.
    1. Why isn't there a book on craniosacral osteopathy?
      1. First of all, craniosacral osteopathy isn't a separate treatment option.
      2. Secondary, most of the underlying theory of craniosacral osteopathy is scientifically proven wrong such as the craniosacral rhythm.
      3. There are however some valuable elements in that system such as the stimulation of the vagus system in the upper cervical region and the mechanics of the temporomandibular joints in relation to the skull. Also in some newborn treating the upper cervical joints gently and without manipulations, development of the baby can be stimulated. These benefits are describes in the books "Posturology and its Scientific Osteopathic Approach", "Cerebrospinal Fluid and its Influence on Health" and "Understanding the Autonomic Nervous System and its Scientific Osteopathic Approach"
