Osteopathy
A somewhat controversial field in
medicine that has provided significant benefit to those
with RSI. It is a structural form of treatment that
focuses on improving bone alignment and mobility.
Osteopaths have a medical education equivalent to MDs,
and as a result are lawfully able to prescribe
medications and even perform surgery. Sessions with an
osteopath are highly tailored to the individual patient,
and also vary greatly with the practicioner; most,
however, make use of subtle forms of bone and muscle
manipulation intended to free up restricted areas. From
the patient perspective, osteopathy involves less
patient involvement than other forms of therapy
described below, but personal experiences have been
highly positive nonetheless. However, given the major
role of the practitioner in this form of treatment,
success with osteopathy seems to have a lot to do with
how carefully you choose your doctor.
