"Osteopathic medicine is the art of healing by understanding the whole person, where the focus is not just on treating the disease, but on unlocking the body's innate ability to heal itself."
- Andrew Taylor Still, Founder of Osteopathy
What is Osteopathic Medicine?
Osteopathic medicine is a distinct branch of medical practice in the United States, emphasizing a holistic approach to patient care. It integrates the latest medical technology with a unique focus on treating the whole person rather than just symptoms. Osteopathic physicians (DOs) are fully licensed to prescribe medication and perform surgery, but they also employ osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) to help diagnose, treat, and prevent illness and injury.
Why try this holistic approach?
This approach fosters the body's natural tendency towards health and self-healing, making osteopathic medicine a comprehensive pathway to wellness for people seeking a balanced and integrative approach to their health. Osteopathic treatment is tailored to the individual. We take the time to listen to patients and understand their unique pain experiences and health goals. Osteopathic medicine can be particularly beneficial for patients with chronic pain conditions, such as fibromyalgia, back pain, and headaches. By addressing the body's structure and function, osteopathic treatments can help manage the chronic pain cycle, providing long-term relief and improving quality of life.
