Osteopathic manual treatment is a therapeutic approach used to diagnose, treat, and prevent a wide range of health conditions. It is based on the principles that the body has an inherent ability to heal itself and that optimal health depends on the harmonious functioning of all its systems.
During an osteopathic manual treatment session, I will use my hands to assess and manipulate your body’s structure, including the muscles, joints, bones, and soft tissues.
The goal of osteopathic manual treatment is to restore balance, improve mobility, and alleviate pain or dysfunction in the body through gentle, precise movements, stretches, and pressure. I consider the interconnectedness of various body systems and aim to address the root cause of the issue rather than merely treating the symptoms.
