Specializes in osteopathy. Gives consultations, carries out functional diagnostics using the osteopathy method. Offers osteopathy, manual therapy, kinesiologic taping, laser therapy, uses the functional desk MANUTHERA 242 in practical work. An osteopath evaluates the patient''s functional state, examines the patient's posture and gait, evaluates the symmetry of the body and movement stereotypes. An osteopath knows anatomy, biomechanics, and is well versed in physiology and neurology. When examining a patient, an osteopath uses static and dynamic tests for assessment, and various neurological and orthopaedic tests. During training and over the years of practice, an osteopath develops excellent palpation skills and the ability to feel the state of body tissues, movements of the body structures. During the consultation, an osteopath assesses the state of the musculoskeletal system (state of bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, fasciae, periosteum, synovial bursae, muscle tendons). Assesses the mobility (sliding) and motility (movement in the organ) of the internal organs, functional mobility of the nervous system, lymphatic system, cardiovascular and respiratory systems.  An osteopath tests the mobility of the craniosacral system, examines the elasticity of the cranial sutures and micromovements in them by palpation, can identify the level of limited micromobility, and establish the cause of this limitation. The patient''s psychoemotional state plays an important role in diagnosis and treatment. After the examination, the patient is given a functional diagnosis and the necessary corrections are carried out in compliance with the concept of treating the person as a whole.  Treats using osteopathy: Diseases related to movement disorders:  postural disorders, non-specific back pain, joint pain, degenerative spine disease, spondylosis, spondyloarthrosis, radiculitis, myofascial pain, muscle imbalance, etc. Neurological disorders: headache, migraine (consultation of a neurologist is recommended), sleep disorders, neurovegetative dystonia, child behavioural disorders (hysterics, hyperactivity, attention disorders). Psycho-emotional overload, burnout syndrome, muscle tics, difficulty focusing, memory impairment, anxiety, restlessness.     After dental and orthodontic procedures, changes in dental occlusion, surgeries, tooth extraction, pain and dysfunction of the temporomandibular (jaw) joint.
