Osteopathic manipulative therapy is a set of hands-on, noninvasive techniques used by our osteopathic physicians (DOs) at Ohio State Center for Integrative Health to diagnose and treat people with a range of illnesses and injuries.
Osteopathic physicians have a keen understanding of how the body's systems are interconnected and how each one affects the others. Using osteopathic manipulative therapy, a DO moves your muscles and joints using techniques that include stretching, gentle pressure and resistance to encourage your body's natural tendency toward healing.
Osteopathic manipulative therapy can effectively treat your muscles and joints to relieve pain, promote healing and increase overall mobility.
