What is "osteopathic manipulative therapy"?
Osteopathic manipulative therapy (OMT) is a hands-on medical treatment used by specialized physicians to diagnose, treat, and prevent muscle or bone disorders and related conditions. This therapy involves applying gentle pressure, stretching, and resistance techniques to manipulate muscles and joints. OMT aims to improve joint movement, enhance blood circulation, and ease pain by restoring balance and promoting the body's natural healing abilities. It is often used alongside other medical treatments to manage conditions such as back pain, headaches, and arthritis.
