Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy that can only be applied
with in-depth understanding of anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics,
with a thorough, efficient, all-inclusive approach to treatment.
Through gentle adjustment and manipulation of the body, an osteopathic
manual practitioner works to realign the overall structure, and bring
balance and flow by removing obstructions that may restrict the path

diverse interrelated systems and functions of the human body, manual
