“An Osteopath is someone who helps to remove the barriers that are preventing that which is seeking to express itself.”
- Philippe Druelle, DO
Osteopathic Manual Therapy (OMT) involves working with the body to promote health, healing, and well-being. Through joint and organ manipulation or gentle oscillations, OMT helps to correct biomechanical dysfunctions related to neuromuscular or systemic complaints.
OMT is a very gentle and safe practice that is effective for
individuals of any age and functional capacity.
The objective of OMT is to encourage mobility and normal interrelationship of all body systems by ridding of dysfunctions. By restoring proper mechanics to an area, fluids are able to flow normally and function improves; ultimately reducing pain and permitting normal function.
OMT is a holistic manual therapy that complements other therapeutic practices.
