The Etiopath is considered the " mechanic of the human body ".

He's a modern-day rebouteux combining generalist medicine and tailor-made care responding to necessity and urgency. He treats with his hands, precisely and painlessly.

He's a modern-day bonesetter.

"Analogously, it's like when a warning light comes on your car's dashboard. The symptomatic treatment (e.g. medication) would be to unscrew the bulb, The warning light disappears, but the cause of the discomfort persists. The Etiopath will follow the thread from the bulb to find out WHY the light is on, and once he's found the problem, he'll treat it. The warning light, and the cause that caused it, disappear."

Precise diagnosis

The human body is a highly complex system, but one that can break down " en panne ".

Etiopathy performs a careful and logical analysis to detect the ORIGIN of the " breakdown ", i.e. the cause, without confusing it with the observed effects. This analysis takes into account the entire system concerned, and is therefore a different approach to a conventional medical diagnosis. Having identified the origin of ailments, the etiopath applies the appropriate manual gesture enabling the patient to heal.
