Therapy Method in Potsdam
Sports Osteopathy
Osteopathic treatment principles are combined with the demands of active sport and the individual load situation.
The Method at a Glance
Sports osteopathy combines osteopathic treatment principles with the demands of active sport. The aim is to recognise functional disorders in the musculoskeletal system, improve performance and support regeneration. The method is suitable for athletes as well as ambitious recreational sportspeople – for example with overuse complaints, movement restrictions or in the phase after injuries. Further offers for training, prevention and return to sport can be found in Athlete Support.
Support in Different Phases
Sports osteopathy can be considered for overuse complaints, movement restrictions or in the phase after injuries.
Frequently Asked Questions
Sports osteopathy applies a whole-body osteopathic perspective to the particular demands of training and competition.
It examines how joints, fasciae, muscles and movement chains work together in the specific sporting task and where this interplay can be improved.
No. The techniques can also be used for people who do not do performance-oriented sport.
The fundamental difference often lies less in the method than in the precision required: the higher and more specific the physical load, the more finely even small restrictions must be recognised and treated.
That is one of its goals. Through the best possible interplay of mobility, force transmission, fasciae, joints and coordination, physical resources should be used more effectively.
What matters is whether a treatable restriction actually exists and whether changing it makes a noticeable difference in sporting movement.
