osteopathic professionals

Osteopathic professionals, known as Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DOs), are fully licensed physicians trained in the same medical practices as MDs. They focus on a holistic approach, considering the body’s systems and how they interact. They receive additional training in osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), which uses hands-on techniques to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness or injury. DOs emphasize overall wellness, prevention, and the body's ability to heal itself, often integrating traditional medicine with physical manipulation to improve health outcomes.
