Niseko Osteopathy Chiropractic

Osteopathy is a form of physical therapy which looks for the root cause of your trouble.

We work on different areas of the body which have a link to your injury or pain and which therefore affect your recovery.

As an example, for a ski fall, and a resulting pain:

the impact may have affected different spots, not only the painful area. By hand we check your the whole of your musculoskeletal system, organs, fascias, and cranio-sacral to make a global functional diagnostic. It determines our treatment plan.

In this way we can reach the best results in both short and long term.

After a big skateboarding fall, I got so much pain in my back for a week, which affected my sleep. I saw a medical doctor, he could not help me more than prescribing painkillers. I went to David, and he fixed it in 2 treatments.

Really helpful, thanks.

I started to be David's patient 3 years ago when it became urgent for me to change my way of life: high cholesterol rate, low physical activity, ... David proposed to me an holistic approach : dietetics, osteopathic treatment...In 9 months, my cholesterol rate was normal, I had lost 20 kgs and was feeling so good being able to exercise!

I had chronic lower back pain, sometimes improving but always there for at least 15 years until first visiting David Brisson 5 years ago, now days while a slight memory of the pain is there, it serves as no more than a warning of those things which I should not attempt.
David was very careful to understand the probably causes of the problem, how long it had been there, what I had done to correct it, and surprisingly to understand both my medical history and lifestyle.

While in Tokyo, I had a back pain, after suffering for weeks, I went to David's clinic. He treated me very well and after just few sessions, those pains disappear.
I recommend his treatment when you have back pain or other kind of pain.
He is a very warm-hearted person, friendly and professional.

I fell snowboarding and was in some pain and had a persistent headache. David was fantastic - after only a couple of sessions, I'm feeling much better and am back on my board.

Osteopathic Method

Diagnosis

The osteopath seeks the root cause of a loss of mobility. She/He detects restriction of movement through fine palpation and the various tests of mobility and motility. Based on the information from the interview and manual tests, we define a protocol of treatment, what to treat and how to treat.

Visceral Therapy

Visceral disfunction has been found to have a link with back pain and posture issues in more than 70% of patients, and include both direct or indirect delicate techniques, which is to go slowly into the dysfunction until the neutral point where there is no tension, from this point the alive tissue relax on its own, at the opposit direct like stretching.

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle treatment using soft touch pressure on the skull and sacrum, working on the skull, plus inner membranes around central nerve system. It is a very relaxing technique with deep impact on the whole head and spine.

Mobility

I search with my hands for a lack of mobility or flexibility in different parts of the body: joints, muscles, organs and skull, as the level of mobility can affect your health

Observation

Observation from a distance looking for disbalance, asymmetry, posture, skin pallor and redness. He/She also carefully observes active movements done by patient to detect any restriction of mobility.

Interview

I collect information about the reason for the visit, symptoms, medical history and living environment.

In our daily practice, we use all kind of techniques Osteopathy and Chiropractic provide: stretching, "cracking", mobilization, fascia, visceral, cranio-sacral, biodynamic. It is a need to master all of them to be able to adjust to patient and his condition.

For us, winter season is traditionally all about snowboard and ski issues. We have high experience with winter sport injuries.

Born in 1984, I started by skiing at 3 years old, switched to snowboarding at 11. I am glad to know and ride the famous “Japow”. Based on my own experience, I know what it is to fall down, break bones, and always reach for a better balance. I will be able to understand you and your trouble easily.

Regular treatment

We understand precisely what's happening to you. If need, we may ask you to see a regular medical doctor for complementary exams.

By hand, we check the painfull area, plus the whole body from head to feet. We get the symptom and its origin.

We do treatment on the symptomatic (painful) area , plus on its origin, which may be different.

We define a protocole by choosing the best techniques to match the functional diagnostic, and the patient. Safe, painless, effective.

- musculoskeletal: joints, spine, muscles
- visceral: inner organs
- craniosacral: skull, and inner membrane of the spine
- fascial: soft tissues of the body

Biodynamic osteopathy

The energetic approach of osteopathy. Extremely gentle, relaxing and very effective. By using hand only (no needle), we reach deeper level of treatment.

The goal is to clean meridians, rebalance and stimulate energetic bodies.

We prefer this approach:
- to consolidate regular treatment
- to work on old chronic problem
- when patient's condition can't allow regular treatment Ex: sever recent accident, acute pain, whiplash, stressful event, other diseases...
