No, the whole process is extremely gentle and respectful. Generally, patients describe it as relaxing.

It depends on the problem, but in mild cases 2 to 4 sessions are usually sufficient. More complex situations may require a longer follow-up.

The Poyet-Pialoux method is a specific approach to osteopathy developed by Maurice-Raymond Poyet in the 20th century and enriched by practitioners such as Marc Pialoux and Lola Toro. It is based on the principle that the human body functions as a harmonious whole, where all parts are interconnected.
The role of the osteopath in this practice is to “listen” to the micro-movements of the tissues and body structures, identifying possible imbalances. These imbalances generate dysfunctional information that can be detected and corrected at a distance by means of much lighter stimuli than in other osteopathic methods. Unlike mechanical approaches, this method focuses on an integrative view of the body and mind.

If you are looking for a therapy that respects your body, focused on gentle and precise corrections, the Poyet-Pialoux method is an excellent choice. It combines efficacy and sensitivity, providing a unique holistic experience.

Yes, the Poyet-Pialoux method perfectly complements other therapies such as acupuncture, naturopathy or conventional medical treatments.

It is recommended to use professionals specifically trained in this technique and verified by recognized osteopathic associations.

• • Contraindications: Not recommended in cases of serious pathologies that require immediate medical attention (fractures, infections, hemorrhages).
  • Limitations: It does not act on major structural injuries, focusing only on functional imbalances. Nor does it replace conventional medical care, but can complement it.

A typical session includes the following stages:

1. Initial evaluation: The therapist detects imbalances in the body through very subtle palpation. He uses light tests especially on the skull and spine as a “map” of body tensions.
2. Specific stimuli: Once the blockages are identified, the osteopath applies micro-movements or micro-impulses with the fingers to “readjust” the imbalances.
3. Return to balance: At the end, the therapist verifies whether the structures have regained their mobility and whether the body integrates the corrections made.

This method prioritizes simplicity, respecting the limits and rhythm of each patient.
