Ernest strongly believes in the 4 principles of Osteopathy:
- Each body’s structure supports the body’s functions. If a structure is out of place, the body will not function at its best.
- The natural flow of the body’s fluids – lymphatic, vascular and neurological – must be preserved and maintained.
- The human body is the sum of its parts. Its physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cognitive systems work in harmony.
- When the body has no restrictions, it has the inherent ability to heal itself.
Ernest as an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner identifies, assesses, and treats the body’s structures and rhythms using a gentle hands-on approach. This fundamental technique is called osteopathic palpation. Osteopathic palpation is what makes osteopathy different from other forms of therapy.
