Is Manual Osteopathic Therapy the Same as Massage?

Manual Osteopathic Therapy is not the same as massage therapy. Osteopathic treatment does not involve massaging the muscles.

pain, and relieve other symptoms.

With a thorough assessment and personalized treatment, osteopathy addresses the root causes of your pain—not just the symptoms you feel.

Your Manual Osteopathic Therapist will use a variety of specialized techniques, such as:

  • Craniosacral Therapy
     
  • Myofascial Remodeling
     
  • Visceral Manipulation
     
  • Osteoarticulations (joint mobilizations and adjustments)
     

At each session, your therapist will tailor the treatment plan by combining these methods or focusing on the most effective ones for your needs.

  • Headaches and Migraines
     
  • Body misalignments (hips, legs, spine, etc.)
     
  • Gastrointestinal issues such as GERD and Irritable Bowel Syndrome
     
  • Piriformis Syndrome and Sciatica
     
  • Disc Herniation and Degenerative Disc Disease
