“Osteopathy is a manual form of therapy which emphasizes the interrelationship between structure and function of the human body. It follows a belief in the body’s ability to self-heal and self-regulate.” This practice is based on in-depth knowledge of the health sciences and the interactions involved in balancing the body.

Sylvain is professional and very efficient! I have a recurring problem (back, sacrum) and each time, he resolves it 90-100%, in 1 to 3 meetings. I recommend it with no hesitation.

Hello, Mr. Fournier is an outstanding professional. During a trip to France, he generously agreed, despite his leave, to treat my son who was suffering from intense and persistent pain in his jaw. After several years of suffering and unsuccessful attempts with several French professionals, Mr. Fournier succeeded on the first try in a single session.
He is a very charming man, very meticulous and above all attentive to others.
I highly recommend Mr. Fournier Sylvain.

Sylvain is an excellent osteopath. He makes sure to understand where the pain is before starting and explains the treatment that follows very well. He often gives exercises to do at home to prolong the benefits of the treatment and to ensure that the pain does not return.

Professional, punctual and extremely knowledgeable. We have been working together for over a decade. Sylvain is a fundamental part of the Athletica Team. His background in fitness gives him another perspective and completes his practice. If you are looking for an Osteopath, do not look further, he's the best.

After 8 years of chronic back pain and trying everything, Sylvain was able to give me back my active lifestyle.

Thank you, for my first ski season in 8 years without being in bed with back pain.
