Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT), is a form of manipulation that:

• Is the generic term used to refer to many different manipulation techniques

• Can be used to treat structural and functional issues in the bones, joints, tissues and muscles

• Uses the relationship between the neuromusculoskeletal system and the rest of the body to restore functionality and/or remove barriers to motion and healing

• Achieves and maintains patient health as part of a whole system of evaluation and treatment

​

Benefits of OMT include:

• Alleviates musculoskeletal pain: OMT techniques can help relieve discomfort and pain in muscles, joints, and tissues, promoting greater comfort and mobility.

• Enhances mobility and flexibility: By targeting areas of restricted motion and tension, OMT can improve range of motion and flexibility, facilitating smoother movement and function.

• Supports natural healing processes: OMT stimulates the body's innate ability to heal by removing barriers to motion and promoting optimal circulation, aiding in the recovery process from injuries or conditions.

• Improves posture and alignment: Through gentle manipulation, OMT can correct imbalances and alignment issues, promoting better posture and reducing strain on muscles and joints.

• Reduces reliance on medication: OMT offers a non-invasive alternative or complement to medication for managing pain and other musculoskeletal issues, potentially reducing the need for pharmaceutical interventions.

• Enhances overall well-being: By addressing both physical and functional aspects of health, OMT can contribute to a sense of well-being, promoting relaxation, stress relief, and improved energy levels.

• Complements other treatments: OMT can be seamlessly integrated with other healthcare modalities, including conventional medicine, physical therapy, and chiropractic care, enhancing overall treatment outcomes and synergy.

• Personalized approach: OMT techniques can be tailored to suit individual needs and preferences, ensuring a personalized and effective treatment plan for each patient.

• Preventive benefits: Regular OMT sessions can help prevent injuries, alleviate chronic issues, and maintain optimal musculoskeletal health, contributing to a proactive approach to wellness.
