What is Osteopathic
Manipulative Medicine?
Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine is a
unique form of medical care that focuses upon the musculoskeletal
system. The goal of osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT)
is to restore maximal pain-free movement by increasing motion
in restricted areas of musculoskeletal function. Sports medicine
is a natural outgrowth of osteopathic medicine because of its
focus upon the musculoskeletal system, diet, exercise and fitness.
