Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed that she is taking the help of Osteopathy to deal with her heartbreak after splitting from husband of 10 years. Paltrow and Chris Martin, who have two children together son Moses and daughter Apple, recently shocked the world of showbiz when they announced they were splitting, reported Daily Mirror.
'Osteopath and healer Vicky Vlachonis has helped me deal with every kind of pain imaginable over the course of our decade-long relationship (joint, muscle, postnatal, emotional, and otherwise),' she wrote on her lifestyle website. Paltrow, 41, is also enjoying some fun nights out with girlfriends. She recently shared a picture of herself on Instagram after the girls' night out at vegan restaurant Crossroads in West Hollywood.
In the picture she was surrounded by Stella McCartney, Chelsea Handler, Sam Taylor Wood, Gwen Stefani, Nicole Richie and Naomi Watts.
What is osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a non invasive, drug-free, hands on approach of alternative medicine. The form of treatment works by strengthening the musculo-skeletal system which includes the bones, muscles and spine. By stimulating these areas osteopathy aims to regulate the circulatory, lymphatic and nervous system. Practitioners say that this type of medicine does not merely deal with the problem but resolves the problem from its roots providing the patient overall good health and wellbeing. Discovered by Dr Andrew Taylor in the late 1800's the aim of using osteopathy was to improve circulation and correct altered biomechanics, without the use of drugs.
