Osteopathy is one of the safest, hands-on, drug-free, and non-invasive manual therapies available for treatment of neuromusculoskeletal and joint complaints. Founded in 1874 by Andrew Taylor Still, M.D. (1828-1917), osteopathy addresses the body as a whole and recognizes that:
- The human body is a unit - all parts are connected: if one part isn't working well, it can affect the rest
- Structure and function are connected: if something is out of alignment or not moving properly, it can lead to pain or health issues
- The body can heal itself
Osteopathic manual practitioners will use these principles to guide their treatments, using hands-on techniques to correct bone, joint, muscle, and fascial restrictions along with their circulatory and nerve components.
Is Osteopathic Treatment Right For You?
Whether you are young, old, or anything in between, manual osteopathy is very safe and proven to be effective. With an individually tailored treatment plan that changes with your needs, you can always be confident that everything your practitioner does has a clear and defined purpose. All you have to do is tell us what your goals are, and we will help you accomplish them.
What Makes Osteopathic Techniques Effective?
Osteopathic Joint Mobilization
Joint mobilization includes rhythmic and sustained movements applied to stiff joints. They are aimed at helping improve range of motion, reduce pain, and restore natural movement patterns—without forceful cracking or thrusting.
Muscle Energy Technique
Muscle energy techniques are a series of stretching techniques where muscles are actively engaged against a resistance before being guided through their natural motion. This helps relax tight areas, improving function in a safe and effective way.
Soft Tissue Therapy
These hands-on methods work directly on muscles, tendons, or fascia to ease tension, improve flexibility, improve circulation, and support the body’s healing process—perfect for areas that feel tight or overworked.
Visceral Osteopathy
Visceral manipulation works on the movement of your internal organs—like the stomach, intestines, or liver (and their surrounding fascia and ligaments) to help reduce pain, improve digestion, and support overall balance in the body.
Cranial Osteopathy
Cranial osteopathy is an approach that works with the subtle movements and rhythm in the skull and spine. It’s often used for headaches, stress, or nervous system regulation and is deeply relaxing.
Positional Release Technique
Positional release is an approach where the body is placed in a comfortable, pain-free position for 90 seconds. It works by calming the nervous system and helping the body reset tension patterns—often used for tender points and muscle spasms.
