Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine

Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) is a hands-on approach used by osteopathic physicians to diagnose and treat various medical conditions. It involves using manual techniques—like stretching, gentle pressure, and resisted movements—to improve the body's function, relieve pain, and enhance overall health. By focusing on the body's musculoskeletal system, OMM aims to restore balance and promote self-healing. This integrative approach complements traditional medical treatments and can help with issues such as headaches, back pain, and joint problems, highlighting the connection between the body's structure and its ability to function optimally.
