What is Osteopathic Manual Therapy?

Osteopathy is a way of detecting, treating and preventing health problems by moving, stretching and manipulating muscles and joints. Osteopathic Manual Therapy is a form of drug-free, non-invasive manual therapy that focuses on total body health. It treats and strengthens the musculoskeletal framework. The therapists aim is to positively affect the body’s nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic systems.

The core philosophy of osteopathy revolves around the body's interconnectedness. The premise is that when your muscles, bones, ligaments, and connective tissues work together seamlessly, you experience optimal well-being. Even your mental and social well-being are considered during diagnosis. Osteopaths utilize a holistic approach, focusing on the body's natural ability to heal itself.

  • "Melissa puts you at ease because she knows her stuff and she treats people with care and respect. But the best part for me, working with her long term for structural issue, has been to see how curious and committed she is about learning how to help. She knows everybody is different and if she doesn’t understand how to make things better, she will do what it takes to figure it out. You won’t find a more dedicated and inspired practitioner."

  • "I had a pinched nerve in my neck and was in level 14 pain. Melissa worked with me to get rid of that pain and get my body functioning again. Her approach to PT is unique and it is hard to put into words how much she helped me. If you are frustrated with traditional PT I strongly encourage you to give Melissa a try."
