What is Ostheopathy ?
Osteopathy is a manual therapy that takes a holistic view of the body, alongside the patient’s personal medical history. It aims to identify the root cause of pain through the analysis of the body’s different systems.
The osteopath uses a range of techniques to relieve tension, restore balance and ease pain, always adapting to each patient’s needs. In some cases, several sessions or a multidisciplinary approach may be required.
Osteopathy can be used both as a preventive and a curative treatment.

Laurène Soulet de Brugière
Always drawn to hands-on work, I found in osteopathy a profession where nothing can replace the therapist’s hands, or what they can feel. I graduated in 2017 from Idheo, in Nantes, and continue to train regularly alongside fellow practitioners, in the belief that real progress comes through contact with patients and other professionals.
A keen horsewoman and sportswoman, I have a particular interest in sport-related injuries: horse riding, archery, diving, combat sports, skydiving, snowboarding and other board sports… This same attention extends to patients with physically demanding occupations, such as farming or construction, where the mechanisms behind injuries are often similar.”
Goulven Rihet
Graduated in 2023 from CEESO Paris after a 5-year programme of excellence, I am trained in the full range of osteopathic techniques (structural, visceral, cranial and fascial/myofascial). To complement my practice, I am also trained in Kinesiology Taping.
High-level and extreme sports: I regularly work with athletes in football and rugby clubs, as well as at demanding endurance events such as marathons, Spartan Races and the Broken Race 24h, helping to optimise performance and ensure safe recovery.
Military support: I follow up with veterans and injured service members, a practice that requires high technical skill in supporting their rehabilitation journey.
I firmly believe in a multidisciplinary approach. To provide you with the most effective and lasting care, I work closely with medical and paramedical professionals.
From infants to extreme athletes, I welcome you at the practice with care, to help you restore your body’s balance and move without pain.
Célia Issakieiwicz
Graduated in June 2026 from Idheo (a school based in Nantes), I am a bright, dynamic person, always on the move, both in my life and in my practice. I see osteopathy as a holistic approach to the person, taking into account the body as a whole: physical, emotional and environmental.
Also very sporty myself, I take a strong interest in the world of sport in general, which helps me better understand the demands, movements and injuries specific to each discipline, enriching my care for sport-related consultations (running, horse riding, weight training, etc.). I have notably supported athletes at events such as the Ironman in Les Sables d’Olonne, the La Rochelle Marathon and the Ultra-Marin in Vannes.
I also have a particular interest in infants and children. During my training, I had the opportunity to work with newborns in the neonatal unit at the Saint-Nazaire Hospital Centre, an experience that strengthened my sensitivity and gentleness in caring for the youngest patients.
