About Osteopathic Therapy

Osteopathy is a non-invasive manual therapy that takes a holistic approach to healthcare by focusing on the interrelationship between the body's structure and its function from the macro to the micro. Osteopathy treatment emphasizes the importance of proper body alignment, so to not disrupt blood flow and nerve function. Osteopathy therapy addresses the underlying cause of a dysfunction to remove obstacles and promote optimal functioning of the body's systems through our own internal physiology. Osteopathic treatment can help with musculoskeletal issues, neurological conditions, or systemic imbalances.

What Can I Expect From a Treatment?

Treatments are created just for you on the day of, based on how you walk through the door that day. A classically trained Osteopathic practitioner will carefully assess your structure and use your own anatomy through a variety of principle-based techniques in order to correct misalignment. This allows the body to take on treatment more readily without overwhelming the nervous system, and at the same time integrates specific treatment with the rest of the body to support the treatment in holding over time.

During a manual osteopathic therapy session, you can expect your practitioner to perform a thorough assessment of your condition, which may include asking about your medical history, performing physical exams, and observing your posture and movement patterns. Treatment techniques will then be applied based on the findings of the assessment. In every session, an assessment of structures is done to see what changes have been made and what still needs work.
What Conditions Can Manual Osteopathic Therapy Help With?

Manual osteopathic therapy can help with a variety of conditions including back pain, neck pain, headaches, sports injuries, arthritis, digestive issues, and more. It aims to treat the root cause of the problem rather than just the symptoms in order to ensure all systems are functioning in harmony.
