Osteopathy for older adults<\/p>\n<\/h1>\n
Moving with confidence, maintaining your independence<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Walking, getting dressed, going for a stroll or enjoying your hobbies: comfort and independence matter in everyday activities.<\/p>\n
At my practice in Palafrugell, I offer individual care that takes your symptoms, health and the activities you want to keep doing into account. I take time to listen, and together we agree on specific, realistic goals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Back, neck or joint pain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Stiffness that makes everyday movements difficult.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Discomfort when standing up, turning or walking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Muscle tension that affects your rest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
Difficulty returning to your usual activities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Pain should not automatically be attributed to age. If you develop new symptoms or an unexplained loss of mobility, it is important to assess the cause.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
We begin by discussing your symptoms, health history, medication and usual activities. I also take into account osteoporosis, joint replacements, previous operations and any falls you have had.<\/p>\n
I then carry out an examination adapted to your mobility. Where appropriate, I use manual techniques, adjusting the pressure, positioning and pace to your situation and preferences.<\/p>\n
I explain each proposal and check how you feel during the session. You can ask for a break or for any technique to be adjusted.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
What matters is that the care addresses something meaningful to you: walking more comfortably, turning over in bed or returning to an activity you miss.<\/p>\n
We agree on what we want to improve and review your progress through those activities. Hands-on work may form part of care for muscle or joint discomfort, alongside movement and any other support you need.<\/p>\n
If we do not see a worthwhile improvement, we review the approach and consider other options.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Strength, balance and mobility deserve attention at every stage of life. Exercise adapted to your needs helps maintain your ability to manage everyday activities and may reduce the risk of falls.<\/p>\n
We can discuss how to incorporate movement into your routine. If you need a specific exercise, rehabilitation or balance programme, I will recommend consulting the appropriate professional.<\/p>\n
We start with your current abilities and progress gradually, choosing activities you can maintain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The choice of techniques depends on your health. Osteoporosis, anticoagulant medication and other circumstances require specific precautions. Even gentle techniques need to be selected individually.<\/p>\n
Osteopathic care complements your usual care. It does not replace medical follow-up, medication or prescribed rehabilitation.<\/p>\n
We agree on the frequency of sessions according to your needs and progress.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
