Ostheothai: Lower back condition
Restoring mobility and vitality in the lumbar spine
From 2 feb to 6 feb 2026
Almost 60% of our patients come to see us with a pathology related to lower back pain.

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.
