EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

WHAT IS OSTEOPATHIC MANUAL THERAPY?

Osteopathic Manual Therapy (OMT) applies a whole-person approach to treatment. It is a very safe, non-invasive and gentle form of manual therapy that seeks to determine the root cause of pain or dysfunction rather than just treating the symptoms. Our main goal is to restore the body to optimal function and balance through a series of osteopathic techniques.

DO I NEED A DOCTOR’S REFERRAL?

For most extended-health insurance providers, a referral from a physician isn't needed. Be sure to check the exact details of your individual plan.
