At the point of care, osteopathic manipulative therapy (OMT) is a beneficial technique that has the potential to save costs while also improving pain and function in patients. There are several uses for manipulative treatment in primary care, all with a low risk of side effects, but it’s crucial to understand how OMT differs from other manual therapies.
OMT treatment focuses on treating directly with incorrect body physiology using a variety of direct and indirect procedures, rather than only spinal alignment. This individualized treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s specific needs, allowing the body’s self-healing and self-regulating systems to be facilitated at the point of care.
