Recurrent Sore Throats:
Recurrent sore throats, also known as pharyngitis, are a common problem. They can be caused by a variety of viruses, bacteria, or allergies.
Some people experience repeated sore throats because their immune system doesn’t respond properly to the infection.
Others have recurring sore throats because of a condition such as laryngeal cancer.
Osteopathy for recurrent sore throats has been shown to be an effective treatment. This is due, in part, to the osteopathic principles of focusing on the musculoskeletal system and correcting imbalances there.
A recent study published in the “Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine” found that more than half of people with chronic ear, nose and throat problems report some improvement after undergoing osteopathic treatment.
Osteopathic treatment for recurrent sore throats may involve a variety of techniques, including manual therapy to help improve drainage from the affected area and relieve pressure, as well as techniques to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
Osteopathy uses gentle touch to treat physical ailments. It is thought to work by relieving pain and restoring function.
