Almost 60% of our patients come to see us with a pathology related to lower back pain. In this area of the Central channel are the spine, the meninges, the cerebrospinal fluid, the nervous system. Here are also Sushumna, Ittha and Pinkhala meridian lines in Thai massage. They all converge to serve the different levels of human functions. During this Osteothai course we will bring a special focus on the spine and mainly the lower back area in order to help vertebrae mobility, restore vitality and bring back ease of movement.


In this 5-day course, we will focus on:

  • OSTEOTHAI ROUTINE FOR CHRONIC LOWER BACK PAIN

  • THE BONY STRUCTURE : SACROILIAC JOINT AND SPINE
    let’s restore the sacroiliac joint mobility and spine rhythm with the Osteopathic General Treatment.
  • CRANIO-SACRAL SYSTEM AND THE CORE LINK
