How Does Osteopathy Treat Tendonitis?
Osteopathy utilizes gentle hand motions to detect restricted movement and tension throughout the body, identify sources of pain, and locate areas of injury or impaired function. The osteopathic physician will also take a medical history, perform a physical examination, and perhaps take x-rays before proposing a treatment program. Osteopathy for tendonitis usually involves resting the injured tendon to promote healing and perhaps applying ice to reduce inflammation.
