While the combination of physiotherapy for women in different stages of pregnancy with an osteopathic approach offers various benefits, it’s important to note that it may not be suitable for everyone. Here are some absolute and relative contraindications:
Absolute contraindications:
Severe medical conditions: These include serious health issues that require special caution, such as severe infectious diseases, fractures, or uncontrolled cardiovascular conditions.
Relative contraindications:
Pregnancy: While not strictly contraindicated, pregnant women should consult a healthcare provider for a customized treatment plan.
Osteoporosis: Care must be taken to adapt therapy methods to avoid potential fractures.
Arthritis: Patients with arthritic conditions may require special adjustments in their therapy plans.
Chronic pain disorders: Conditions like fibromyalgia may require a more cautious approach.
Always consult your healthcare provider for an individual recommendation based on your medical history and current health condition. If any of the absolute contraindications apply, the combination of physiotherapy and an osteopathic approach is not advisable. Relative contraindications require careful assessment and possible adjustment of the treatment plan.

In Switzerland, the healthcare system is comprehensive, but the coverage of treatments, including manual therapy, can depend on various factors:
Basic Health Insurance (Compulsory Health Insurance – LaMal): In Switzerland, there is compulsory health insurance known as LaMal (L’Assurance Maladie). When a doctor prescribes manual therapy or physiotherapy, basic insurance typically covers a portion of the costs. However, there is usually a deductible that patients must reach first, and then there is a co-payment (often 10% of the costs) up to a certain maximum that patients must pay out of pocket each year.
Supplementary Insurance: Many Swiss citizens also opt for supplementary or complementary insurance to cover healthcare services not paid for by compulsory insurance or to receive higher reimbursements. Depending on the policy, this insurance may cover more sessions or different types of treatments within manual therapy.
Out-of-Pocket Payment: If you seek manual therapy without a doctor’s prescription or if your insurance does not cover it, you may need to pay out of pocket. It’s always a good idea to inquire about prices in advance.
Recognition of the Therapist: It is crucial to check whether the manual therapist or physiotherapist is recognized by your insurance. In Switzerland, not all therapists are recognized by every insurance, which means that the insurance may not cover their services even with a doctor’s prescription.
Accident vs. Illness: If the need for therapy arises from a work-related or non-work-related accident, the costs may be covered differently, often by accident insurance rather than regular health insurance.
Session Limitations: Even if manual therapy is covered, there may be a limit on the number of paid sessions within a specific time frame.
In summary, manual therapy in Switzerland may be covered under various circumstances. However, it’s important to check your specific insurance details, verify the recognition status of your therapist, and be aware of deductibles and co-payments. If you’re uncertain, it’s a good idea to contact your insurance provider directly or consult with the manual therapist regarding payment expectations.
