Manual Osteopathic Therapy is a hands-on holistic therapy that emphasizes the importance of overall healing and well-being of an individual. With the primary focus on restoring function and eliminating pain by addressing the root cause. It is the practice of identifying and reversing mechanical shifts and physiological interferences that occur in the body over time.
Manual Osteopathic Therapists assess and treat the body’s structure and function, taking into account the patient’s lifestyle, environment and medical history.
By Treating the body as a whole you can improve blood within tissues and bring back mobility, with the final goal being to provide the optimal conditions for the body to restore stability and balance between the different systems (nervous, vascular, and musculoskeletal system, etc.) Treatments include osteoarticulation manipulation, myofascial remolding, craniosacral therapy, and visceral manipulation.
