Manual Therapy (or osteopathy as it’s called outside of the United States) encompasses many modalities such as CranioSacral Therapy, Somato Emotional Release, Visceral Manipulation and Neural Manipulation. These non-invasive hands-on modalities have proven effective in providing a large range of physical and emotional benefits.

MusculoSkeletal system

The soft tissue

Manual Therapy promotes release in soft tissue: fascia, muscle tissue and meninges. The space and flexibility created in the tissue not only resolve pain but also enhance the circulation of the cerebrospinal fluid, blood and lymph. This circulation is fundamental to a vital body as all fluids provide nutrition and detoxification. A better circulation of fluids improves the function of all systems: nervous, vascular, lymphatic, digestive, immune and respiratory. Manual Therapy restores the environment for all bodily systems to rejuvenate and function at their highest potential.

The hard frame

Manual Therapy also addresses the hard frame of the body, the skeleton. Decompressing the joints will alleviate unnecessary irritation and tears in the articulation as well as in vertebral discs. In turn, this helps rebalance the musculoskeletal system and relieves overpressure on ligaments, tendons and nerves.

 

Nervous system

Manual Therapy also offers a unique way to address the nervous system and therefore has a direct influence on all other systems and parts of the body. 

 

Immune system

The immune system can greatly benefit from the whole-body approach and diversity of techniques provided by Manual Therapy. These range from soft tissue release, which enhances fluid exchange, to dialog with cells and organs that draw the body’s awareness to a dysfunction and encourage change.

 

Women’s and Men’s Health

Manual Therapy has long proven very beneficial for many pelvic issues that may affect the urinary system or reproductive system of both females and males.

 

Whole body therapy

Manual Therapy has also been proven to be very effective when the situation is so complex that it can’t be helped by treating one or several body parts, but requires instead the treatment of an entire system. Many people come to Delia after having unsuccessfully tried numerous forms of therapy or exercise programs and are in desperate need of a fresh approach.

 

Pain Management

Manual Therapy has proved very effective in pain management. Addressing the body with a vast understanding often reaches the underlying cause of the pain and finally brings about long lasting relief.  In many cases, Manual Therapy can avoid unnecessary surgeries (as much as 40% of surgeries may not be necessary) or an over-reliance on medications.

 

Stress reduction

The all-encompassing quality of Manual Therapy has made it a primary resource to provide release from stress – acute, trauma or chronic – or handle a complex situation like post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from a physical, emotional and spiritual point of view.

 

Prevention

Manual Therapy promotes whole-body health and increases resistance to disease and injury without the use of medications or invasive procedures. That is why it has become part of the wellness routine for many athletes, artists and lay people alike.

 

For the most fragile: new born, toddler and elderly

The light pressure used by Manual Therapy is respectful of clients who are fragile because of their health conditions, age or individual sensitivity.
