Osteopathy is a unique form of medicine that focuses on restoring normal function. Physicians trained in osteopathic treatment use their hands on skills to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal and neurological problems.

Osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM), also known as osteopathy or osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), is a gentle hands on holistic medical treatment done by a licensed physician that provides a natural, drug free approach to the diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of musculoskeletal and nervous system problems such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches. By addressing the cause of pain and dysfunction, osteopathy restores balance and normal function to the musculoskeletal system (bones, ligaments, muscles, nerves, joints, and connective tissue) and nervous system (brain, spinal cord, nerves).

In our South Austin office, we offer osteopathic treatment to patients of all ages and conditions, including infants, children, pregnant women, those in fragile condition, and elite athletes. Osteopathic treatment is medical treatment, and the cost of your visits may be reimbursed by your insurance company.

Frequently, patients are astonished that one or two simple osteopathic treatments can greatly improve their quality of life by relieving pain and improving mobility, improving sleep, and decreasing their need for medications.

We believe osteopathic treatment offers patients better medical care and better results at decreased cost.

Unfortunately, if you have symptoms that don’t fit the “traditional” medical paradigm that most physicians have been trained to understand, you’ll likely be told “it’s all in your head” or “you’ll have to live with it”. In many cases, this isn’t true. There is a reason you’re having these symptoms, and most likely osteopathy can help address it.
