Veterinary Osteopathy is a manual therapy that treats the body as a whole.

Osteopathy says: MOVEMENT IS LIFE

Osteopathy was born in 1875 in the U.S. with dr. Andrew Still.

The principles of osteopathy are:

- The principle of holism

- The relationship between function and structure

- The importance of body homeostais

- The possibility of the body to heal itself

- Arterial rule: the importance of the circulation of body fluids and the importance of the innervation of the circulation

- The somatic component of disease

There are three types of osteopathy:

- Parietal bone disease

- Visceral osteopathy

- Craniosacral osteopathy

These three branches are fully intercorrelated and to have an optimal effect of treatment, the animal must receive osteopathic treatment in its entirety.
