Gentle Care for a Full Recovery
Recover from bronchitis, pneumonia, chronic cough, or stomach virus with an osteopathic treatment in Edmonton. Discover how craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation, and manual osteopathy can support lymphatic flow, digestion, and the nervous system post-illness.
Why Consider a Post-Illness Rebalance?
Illnesses like bronchitis, pneumonia, chronic coughs, sinus congestion, or stomach viruses can leave lingering effects on your body, even after the acute symptoms are gone. These after effects may include tight ribs, digestive discomfort, or a stressed nervous system. A Post-Illness Rebalance with a Manual Osteopathic Therapist in Edmonton offers a gentle, holistic approach to restore balance and promote healing.
How Osteopathy Supports Recovery
Osteopathy, including craniosacral therapy and visceral manipulation, works with the body to address post-illness imbalances. Here’s how it can help:
1. Lymphatic Flow for Detoxification
After an illness, the lymphatic system plays a crucial role in removing toxins and promoting immune recovery. Manual osteopathy uses gentle techniques to:
- Stimulate lymphatic circulation, reducing swelling or congestion.
- Clear lingering sinus congestion for better breathing.
- Support the body’s natural detoxification processes.
2. Easing Tight Ribs After a Cough
Prolonged coughing, as seen with bronchitis or pneumonia, can leave the ribcage and surrounding muscles tight and sore. Visceral manipulation focuses on:
- Releasing tension in the intercostal muscles (between the ribs).
- Improving rib mobility for easier, more comfortable breathing.
- Relieving chest tightness and promoting relaxation.
3. Digestive Upsets Post-Illness
Illnesses like stomach viruses can leave the digestive system feeling unsettled or sluggish. Visceral manipulation can:
- Ease tension in the abdominal area, improving gut function.
- Relieve bloating, cramping, or discomfort.
- Promote better digestion and overall abdominal health.
4. Nervous System Regulation
Illness often puts the nervous system into overdrive, leaving you feeling fatigued or anxious. Craniosacral therapy and manual osteopathy help by:
- Activating the parasympathetic nervous system (“rest and digest”), promoting calm and recovery.
- Reducing stress and supporting emotional balance.
- Encouraging better sleep and restoring energy levels.
Important Note Before Booking
To ensure the best results and safety, appointments should only be booked when there are no active symptoms of illness. Please wait until fever, runny nose, or other acute symptoms have resolved before scheduling your Post-Illness Rebalance session.
