Osteopathy for the elderly
Osteopathy in older people plays a supporting role or adjunct to Conventional Medicine in chronic and degenerative diseases.
What does Osteopathy bring to the elderly?
Osteopathy wants to do its bit, helping older people to have a better quality of life and to fend for themselves.
Why can Osteopathy be useful to the elderly?
Osteopathy favors the elderly and can be very beneficial for them, fulfilling a valuable preventive work. It positively influences body structures and the functions that these structures perform. Also, because older people have many problems that can decrease their quality of life, and osteopathic care is the effective method for pain relief, to improve mobility and to boost the immune system.
How is osteopathy used in the elderly and in what specific cases is it used?
Osteopathy is a manual health method, not invasive, that is done with gentle techniques, and that can help in many health disorders in the elderly, such as chronic degenerative diseases, arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, all kinds of musculoskeletal pain , and loss of balance and mobility. It is worth highlighting its role as support or adjunct to Conventional Medicine in chronic and degenerative diseases. In this sense, we want to vindicate the great impact that Osteopathy can have on health and on the economy, as a consequence of the reduction in morbidity, emergency visits, hospitalizations, use of medications, and even the mortality.

Elisabeth Modalen
Registered Osteopath ROE no. 818
I am an osteopath with a bachelor degree in Osteopathy from the University of Oslo. I´m specialized in joint mobilization that is out of alignment, and spinal integration and alignment as all musculo-skeletal tissues dis-eased are interconnected; in this way I can relieve pain caused by inflammation and tensed muscles. I focus on building a positive relationship with my patients as I believe it will have an important impact on the outcome of the treatment.
