Dr. Tarek Touma - Osteopath

Dr. Tarek Touma - Osteopath Osteopathy is a therapy name that has become abundant in our modern days, although the very roots date in the 1800s.

- Doctor of Osteopathy in Beirut, Lebanon.
- Teaching Osteopathic Manipulative courses to undergraduate Doctors of physiotherapists at USJ.
- Teaching Diagnostic Radiology imaging for manual therapists in LGU.
- Osteopathy Workshops & Lectures. Osteopathy has proven through the decades the benefits and important role of this drug free manual medicine that has been brought into our busy and increas

ingly stressed lives. It focuses on the musculoskeletal framework, treating back pain, frozen shoulders, elbow, hip, ankle and neck pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, slipped disc, numbness and tingling conditions; thus enhancing the nervous, digestive, and circulatory and lymphatic systems. In addition it provides stretching exercises, lifting techniques, posture, breathing, and stress reduction, thus reducing ongoing health costs. On top, since the fact that all body parts are connected, the function of one part is dependent on the normal functioning of the others. So, osteopathy allows the body to heal itself by providing through its drug-free techniques a good blood circulation, and the removal of waste products. A list of the few problems that a regular osteopathy can deal with:

• Neck, Spinal and lumbago pain
• Headache relief, and migraines
• Muscle tension and spasms
• Discomfort from chronic illness
• Fibromyalgia
• Shin splints
• Slipped spinal discs
• Repetitive strains
• Scoliosis
• Sore elbows, shoulders, joints (hit, knee from osteoarthritis) and lumbago
• Postures assessment
• Arthritic pain
• Sport injuries and tension

People deal with multiple kinds of pain on a daily basis, and most often we rely on aspirin or similar pain relievers to ease the pain, but what people do not realize is that the pain causing may be coming from unknown regions in the body and will continue to do so unless treated. Our bodies are constantly under physical and emotional stress, and osteopathy is the key to make acknowledgement of your pain.

🧠 Seminar Focus – Part 1

This first seminar will introduce the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and its direct relationship with the visceral organs.

We will cover:

* Sympathetic & parasympathetic systems
* How the ANS regulates organ function, motility, and tension
* The clinical link between stress, digestion, and somatic pain

⸻

🌬️ Visceral Approach

Special focus will be on the diaphragm as a central key structure:

* Its role in respiration, circulation, and autonomic balance
* Visceral attachments (liver, stomach, ligaments,etc)
* How restrictions impact both organs and the nervous system

⸻
