MANUAL OSTEOPATHY

Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy is a holistic, whole-body approach to manual medicine.  Restoring balance within the body's framework begins with balancing each system and their interconnections. Osteopathy focuses on the balancing of the

musculoskeletal, nervous, circulatory, pulmonary, digestive, and lymphatic systems as well as the cranial-sacral system. By addressing all body systems, the body allows itself to heal as a unit, providing faster healing times, and sustainable treatment results.

​

"An osteopath is only a human engineer, who should understand all the laws governing his engine and thereby master disease."  

 -A.T. Still MD DO
