A 35 year old patient presented to the clinic with a history of chronic Rheumatoid Arthritis, with periodic phases of exascerbations of sweliing, pain and tenderness of the joints. The wrists, knees and spine were all involved during the flare up of symptoms.

On examination, X-rays indicated mild degenerative changes to the joint margins of the distal radius and ulna. The knees also showed irregularities at the condylar region of the femur and joint effusion.

On osteopathic examination, the joints were hyper mobile and the paraspinal muscles indicated an increased tonus and were fibrotic.

Treatment consisted of Osteopathic mobilisation of the spine to aid in regulating the autonomic nervous system, and articulation of the joints to ease the pain and inflammation of the tendinitis (tenosynovitis) of the wrists. Acupuncture was applied to regulate the neuro-endocrine system, and specifically for pain relief, to aid circulation, ease muscular tonus and reduce fluid retention.

Osteopathy Acupuncture in Action | Cyprus | Paphos | Limassol

HORMONE IMBALANCE | MENORRHAGIA, DYSMENORRHEA and DYSFUNCTIONAL UTERINE BLEEDING

Acupuncture began before 2500 BC in China and is now used all over the world to treat disease and pain, to improve general health, and even as an anesthetic.  Metal needles are applied to certain points on the body, and the overall purpose of the treatment is to bring the  (female principle) and  (male principle) back into balance with one another.

A 18 year old patient presented to the clinic with a history of abnormal rhythm in their monthly cycle.

All pelvic examinations with Ultra-Sound were negative.

The patient complained of heavy painful periods, with clotting of the blood. The period of the bleed would last for seven days. She would also experience fluid retention and pain below the umbilical region.

Psycho-emotional state of the patient; Impatient, disappointed with herself, under stress, sad, anxious, holding stuff in, breathing problems, mood swings.

All these symptoms coincided with a road traffic accident a year ago, where the patient was hospitalised, in shock, suffering with amnesia.

Osteopathy and Acupuncture look specifically into the causation of symptomatology. There are a pluralism of factors that are involved in ‘driving a symptom pattern’, and it is in the body i.e. the musculo-skeletal structures where we find the root problem of the symptoms. In this case, there we many asymmetries and musculo-skeletal blocks of the cervical and thoraco-lumbar segments of the spine.

Treatment consisted of Osteopathic mobilisation of the lumbar spine to aid the outflow of the autonomic nervous system to the pelvic organs. Acupuncture was applied to regulate the neuro-endocrine system, to aid circulation, ease muscular cramps and reduce fluid retention. Osteopathic manipulation of the cervical spine to aid thyroid and parathyroid function as a mediator for hormone balance.

A 50 year old female patient attended the clinic with a history of losing temper, physically expressing rage, anger, despair, wanting to hit their head against the wall, crying a lot, stress. Their symptoms consisted of emotions building up, family friction, arguments, generally feeling like they do not know where to be or what to do. The patient is also going through the menopause.

Medication: Anti depressants 18-19 years. A history of IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), stress in work.

The patient was diagnosed with chronic depression. X-rays revealed normal disc height between vertebral bodies and no spondylitis.

Treatment began with a conservative osteopathic and acupuncture re-alignment which helped to release pressure from the spine especially around the cervico-thoracic region.

Following treatment the patient felt better and more relaxed from the increased mobility and blood flow to the body periphery.

A treatment program will help to reduce the muscular rigidities that coincide with depression.

Case History: 69 year old female with hypochondriasis, depression, vertigo, claustrophobia, stress, sadness, no focus, insomnia, worry and agoraphobia.

Many disorders within the head region are found to stem from muscular and skeletal stiffness and asymmetries of the cervical spine, especially around the region of the upper vertebrae i.e. Atlantal-Axial joint. Gentle muscular release and Osteopathic adjustment of the neck helped reduce the frequency and severity of vertigo.

Both Osteopathy and Acupuncture can help to reduce the severity of psychosomatic distress, as these processes can manifest into all kinds of physical symptoms i.e. fear, panic attacks, nightmares, muscular rigidities, low self esteem, depression, anger issues, grief, low energy and breathing disorders. Osteopathy and Acupuncture can to help to release negative emotional and mental states. Wilhelm Reich (Student of Dr. Sigmund Freud, Vienna School of Psychoanalysis) clinically observed that it is possible to both access and manipulate the forces which drive the psyche through the body sensoria, and this he termed, the ‘biophysics of perception’. In therapy explore these Reichian principles within the framework of Osteopathic diagnosis and treatment. Acupuncture is also very effective in the treatment of psycho-emotional distress, where we utilise ‘Five Element’ principles in the diagnosis and treatment ofd the patient. Acupuncture can also restore harmony and balance within the emotions and the mind. There is hope!

PTSD (POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER), DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY DISORDERS.

Osteopathy and Acupuncture are very effective in treating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). According to Dr. Wilhelm Reich, the collective trauma of the ego i.e. a concussion of the psyche causes somatic defence mechanisms, neuroses, dysautonomias, and disassociation of mental/emotional drivers which create conflict within body movement and musculoskeletal patterns. The hypothesis of terms used as; “Flexibility of memory” (genetic memory) and “Hierarchy of memory stores”, and how they are situated in the body can be restored which lead to an improvement in mental health.

Five element Acupuncture has been used for thousands of years to help regulate the emotional state of the individual. So much so, that there are specific Acupuncture points which can be used to treat the psyche, alter mood, treat emotional pain, fear, hysteria and anger.

Whiplash Numbness Pain in Neck and Shoulders

Osteopathy in Paphos | Whiplash Clinic |

Today we treated a patient who presented with acute pain following a road traffic accident. Even though the patient was concerned over having a ‘slipped disc’, the X-Rays were normal.

The patient complained of neck pain, headaches and shooting pains in the shoulder, arm and hand. Numbness was also experienced.

As indicated in the diagram above, one can see the ‘mapping’ of pain or numbness that arises from when the nerves are irritated in the neck.

On examination there were palpable muscular fixations and rigidities. The muscle spasm and cramps within the neck were aggravating the spinal nerves.

Osteopathic treatment was applied to the cervical spine and the 1st rib was manipulated into position. Osteopathic massage and traction was applied to take the pressure off the nerves in the Brachial Plexus.

Acupuncture was used to calm and loosen the muscles.

Whiplash Clinic in Paphos | Osteopathy | Acupuncture

Today a patient presented with Whiplash, stiffness, shoulder and neck pain. Pain and numbness were referred into the left arm. Headaches were also a symptom. On Osteopathic examination, there were palpable muscular fixations and rigidities within the neck and shoulder region. The Brachial nerve plexus was irritated around the Scalene muscular group, which presented itself with an elevated 1st rib.

 

From the diagram above, regions of the hand are divided into segments which map out the area (dermatome) of each nerve root that supplies sensation from the vertebrae in the spine i.e. the area C6, refers to the nerve root that leaves the spine at the level between C6 and C7.

Osteopathic massage and manipulation was carried through to loosen the musculature. Osteopathic manipulation of the 1st rib, cervico-thoracic manipulation and thoracic manipulations were applied. Acupuncture was used to work upon regulating the neuro-muscular system.

The patient felt immediate relief of pain and improved movement. We will continue the Osteopathic treatment programme.

Today we focussed upon the psychosomatisation of muscular rigidity within the body as being a barrier or shield that prevents the patient from getting better. Psychosomatisation is a general term which describes the reflex pathway by which the activity of thoughts, mind and emotions overshadow the bodily and muscular functions. For example, whenever we are under any stress, the body responds in many ways. In the majority of people, this stress is unconscious to them. This is very common, due to busy and hectic lifestyles i.e. not enough sleep, bad diet, worry etc. In this respect, Osteopathic treatment enables the body to recognise the sensorial aspect of the body which enables the patient to relax and encourage the right changes to take place in the body. Stress can create muscular blockages which restricts spinal mobility, and this in turn increases the susceptibility to injury e.g. disc compression and neuropathia. What is most interesting, is that the majority of patients who present to clinic with pain are completely unconscious that they are carrying stress in their body.

Osteopathy and Acupuncture treatment enables the patient to become more sensorially aware of their body, which then allows the tissues i.e. muscles, bones and ligaments to find their natural position, encourage the healing process and for the condition to be treated effectively.

Osteopathy and Acupuncture are applied to work through the nervous system, to help regulate the body, calm the mind and reduce stress. Acupuncture using the five element principle is aimed at promoting balance within the emotions and mind.

IBS (IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME) Osteopathy Paphos Limassol Cyprus Acupuncture

Osteopath Paphos | Limassol | Cyprus Acupuncture Clinic

Today a patient presented to the clinic with a history of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Osteopathic treatment was applied to the cervical spine and thoracic spine. These areas of the spine become ‘facilitated’ by abnormal signalling between the viscera (organs) and the spine. Through osteopathic and acupuncture treatment, the nervous system is mediated and normal functioning of the organs is restored. The autonomic nervous system to the intestines and organs can be regulated using osteopathy and acupuncture. Acupuncture was applied to balance the nerves, improve blood flow and circulation within the abdomen and relax the smooth muscle of the intestines.

DISC COMPRESSION L5/S1 Osteopathy Paphos Limassol Cyprus Acupuncture

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.

Today we continued post rehabilitation Osteopathic therapy upon an elbow fracture that has been pinned. As you can see from the X-ray below, even though the pins have fixed the structural integrity of the bones, the patient was suffering from restriction in movement, loss of full range of motion and pain. Such restrictions and pain are normal following surgery. However, Osteopathic mobilisation and Osteopathic massage can help to reduce inflammation (swelling) around the joint, loosen the muscles around the joint and improve mobility. In the treatment, we achieved 30% increase in movement of the elbow. Pain was also reduced by over 50%. Osteopathic manipulation of the cervical spine was also beneficial to the elbow movement as it softened the muscles around the shoulders and improved overall mobility and most importantly ‘confidence’ in movement of the elbow. Acupuncture was also applied to help reduce swelling, pain and achieve relaxation within the patient.

In the treatment of low back pain and sciatica. Today the Osteopathic session focussed upon sensory awareness of posture, contact with seating position using our attention on body sensation, breath and mind to release unnecessary tension in the body.

We explored the relationship between breath and body. Paying particular attention to the non-verbal level of body movement i.e. the process of awareness and the process of feeling the body. These techniques encourage self management and improve Osteopathic therapy. We experimented with posture correction and explored the underlying essence of movement using Osteopathic manoeuvres. Osteopathy was applied to facilitate movement of the spine, restoring bodily awareness through postural variations.
