Osteopathic manipulative treatment

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is a hands-on approach used by osteopathic physicians to diagnose, treat, and prevent health issues. It involves gently manipulating the body's muscles and joints to improve mobility, alleviate pain, and enhance overall function. OMT considers the whole body and aims to support the body's natural ability to heal itself. Osteopathic physicians may use various techniques, such as stretching, pressure, and resistance, to address specific concerns, often focusing on the musculoskeletal system, while also considering the interconnection between the body's systems.
