The goal of osteopathic treatments is to activate the often disturbed self-healing powers and thereby initiate a completely natural healing process. The osteopath achieves this with their knowledge of human anatomy and physiology, as well as a great deal of sensitivity. The techniques of osteopathy are also excellent for self-treatment. This involves using one's own body awareness. In this book, Thomas Seebeck conveys the principles of osteopathic treatment and, above all, the osteopathic home pharmacy: a total of 45 exercises for common problem areas (e.g., head, back, sprains) are presented in detail and in a practical manner.
