Osteopathic Manual Therapy (OMT) is a hands-on approach to healthcare that looks at how your whole body works together. Instead of focusing only on where it hurts, osteopathy asks why the pain or dysfunction is there in the first place.

Using gentle, precise manual techniques, osteopathic treatment aims to improve movement, circulation, nervous system regulation, and the body’s ability to heal itself. The goal is not just short-term relief, but long-term change.

What does treatment involve?
Treatment may include hands-on work to joints, muscles, fascia, organs, and the nervous system. Techniques are chosen specifically for your body and may range from very gentle to more direct, depending on what your system needs and can tolerate.

Sessions often include:

Improving joint and tissue mobility

Reducing tension and strain patterns

Supporting nervous system regulation

Addressing how old injuries, surgeries, stress, or posture affect your body today

What can osteopathy help with?
People seek osteopathic care for pain, stiffness, headaches, concussions, chronic stress, fatigue, digestive concerns, pregnancy-related changes, and recovery from injury or illness. Many patients also come because they feel “off,” stuck, or not functioning at their best—even if imaging or tests are normal.

What makes osteopathy different?
Osteopathy is not just about treating symptoms. It’s about understanding patterns, capacity, and resilience. Treatment works best when combined with education, rest, movement, and lifestyle support—because bodies need the right conditions to heal.

Osteopathic care is collaborative, individualized, and rooted in the belief that your body is capable of recovery when given the right inputs.
