André focuses his treatments on a global osteopathic approach for an individual’s life from childhood to adulthood to the elderly. This may include chronic pain, sports injuries, MVAs, TMJ disorder, digestive issues, urogenital issues, and much more.
The treatments provided are focused on neuromuscular imbalances using relevant techniques. Initial treatments generally involve a consultation about the specific complaint(s), followed by range of motion and orthopedic assessments to determine the client’s appropriate treatment(s) (approximately 20-40 minutes). André may encourage and provide beneficial exercises to rehabilitate certain physical discomforts.
One important osteopathic principle is that the body is a functional unit. With proper knowledge, an Osteopathic Manual Therapist can trace the cause of injury or pain. Once the cause has been identified, the therapist can advise patients to seek proper care or aid in their recovery through specific treatment.
