Acute pain
Sudden pain can throw off an entire day. After an injury or a sudden flare-up, care aims to bring you relief.
Osteopathic care for every stage of life
A newborn, a mother-to-be, a skier, a grandparent: each body has its own needs. Chantal shapes each session around the person on her table.
Osteopathy for babies and infants
When your baby seems uncomfortable, you want calm, gentle support. Chantal welcomes babies with gentle hands, adapted to their small size. Care focuses on your baby's comfort, at their pace. You stay beside your child for the whole session. [TO CONFIRM]
Children and teenagers are welcome too.
Osteopathy during pregnancy
Your belly grows, your pelvis adjusts, your back carries more. Pregnancy care aims to ease the common discomforts of those months. It also aims to rebalance the pelvis. Care is gentle and goes at your pace. After the birth, postnatal care supports your body as it recovers.
[TO CONFIRM: from which stage of pregnancy, and how long after delivery]
Low-back pain, sciatica and back spasms
A back that seizes up in the morning, pain shooting down the leg. Work, sleep, chores around the house: everything gets harder. Hands-on care aims to restore function and mobility to the spine. The aim is to relieve the low-back pain and help you move comfortably. During a spasm, the work targets the affected area to release tension. Chantal draws on an in-depth knowledge of anatomy. The goal: getting your freedom of movement back.
Sports injuries and ski injuries
A tumble on the slopes at Val Saint-Côme, a muscle pulled on a run. Sprains, muscle strains and tears: care aims to relieve pain and support your recovery. She uses hands-on musculoskeletal techniques. As a former dancer, she knows a body that moves and pushes hard. She'll give you advice for easing back into your sport with confidence.
Other reasons people come in
Stiff neck (torticollis)
A sore, rigid neck that appears overnight. Care aims to release muscle tension and help the neck recover.
Loss of joint mobility
A shoulder, hip or knee that no longer moves the way it used to. A combination of osteopathic techniques aims to restore the joint's mobility and function. Each joint is considered in relation to the rest of the body.
Headaches
Headaches can stem from muscle tension, structural imbalances or other factors. Care aims to release the tension that can contribute to them.
Stress and tension
Stress often settles in the body. Gentle, unhurried osteopathic techniques aim to encourage relaxation.
General discomfort
Whether from stress, posture or another factor, discomfort wears on daily life. Personalized care aims to ease areas of tension.
Also
People living with chronic pain are welcome too. Seniors receive care adapted to help them keep their mobility.
