There are many chronic conditions that people suffer episodically. such as Osteoarthritis/ or inflammatory arthritis. Commonly an individual will sense the atmospheric changes associated with an incoming storm at least as well as a weather forecaster, sometimes more accurately!
OMT will not cure arthritis. Chronic pain causes the body to adjust to lessen the effects that pain and restrictions induced on the body. This in turn causes imbalance in the body system leading to increasing pain and exacerbations of symptoms.
OMT techniques are ideal for re-establishing balance in the body without unwanted side effects! The greatest factors in Osteopaths mot choosing to practice OMT is not having the time and lack of feeling confident in skills. That is why Brookmead Medical Associates-Osteopathic was founded. There is a need and also availability of effective established practice. My one goal is to treat people with a great treatment that has been around for more than a century.
