Biomechanics and Applied Kinesiology

Osteopathy
  • ApresentaçãoPresentation
    Osteopathic practice is based on the perfect relationship between the structural, somatic components and the functions associated with them. Thus, the imbalance, maladjustment and dysfunctionality of somatic structures, whether musculoskeletal or other associated (visceral, vascular, circulatory or neural) are of fundamental importance in the functioning of the organism and its homeostatic balance, and may be related to different states of organic vitality, health and disease
