Getting Into the Flow with Osteopathic Manipulation

If you are having back pain or neck pain from an auto accident or fall, you might come in for an Osteopathic Treatment. This is also known as Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy or OMT. Osteopathic means “Relieve from Pain.” And not necessarily bone pain, you see, the human body needs to have uninterrupted flow. By this I mean flow of blood, nervous impulses, and lymphatic system. It is known that the musculoskeletal system is the largest system in the human body and if it is out of alignment pain and other problems can occur is subluxation. By correcting subluxations with Osteopathic therapy a normal flow of blood, nervous and lymphatic system returns. When your natural flow of these systems restore so does well-being and good health.
