Osteopath Paphos | Limassol | Cyprus Acupuncture Clinic

Today a patient presented to the clinic with an acute onset of inflammation of the lumbar spine. The symptoms caused pain in the hip and leg. The X-Ray indicated a marked compression of the disc between L5/S1 and inflammation. On physical examination, this inflammation was an aggravation of a previous chronic long standing history of arthritis of the spine. The inflammation was centred around the Sacro-iliac area and L5/S1. Osteopathic treatment was aimed at reducing the inflammation, mobilisation of the spine and Acupuncture to reduce inflammation. The patient felt improvement after a few hours. The patient was given osteopathic exercises for homework.
