MANUAL OSTEOPATHIC THERAPY

What is Manual Osteopathic Therapy?

Manual osteopathic therapy is a holistic approach to health care that focuses on the musculoskeletal system and its relationship to overall health. Manual osteopathic therapists utilize a variety of techniques to manipulate and enhance the body’s structure and function. By addressing muscles, joints, nerves, connective tissues, circulation, and viscera, osteopaths help restore balance, alleviate pain, and improve function. This approach is based on the principle that well-being depends on the body’s ability to heal itself, emphasizing the interconnection between all the body’s systems.

Manual osteopathic therapy treatment often involves manual therapy techniques such as stretching, pressure, and resisted movements. These techniques aim to improve circulation, alleviate pain, and enhance mobility. Manual osteopathic therapy can be beneficial for a wide range of physical and nervous system related conditions.
