Frequently Asked Questions

Your first session includes a full health history intake and a physical assessment. We will look at your posture and movement to identify areas of restriction before beginning a personalized manual treatment.

Not at all. Osteopathic Manual Therapy uses gentle, rhythmic movements and stretching techniques. While some areas may feel tender—especially if they are restricted or sensitive—the goal is always to work with your body, not against it.

Please wear loose, comfortable clothing (like leggings or gym shorts and a t-shirt) that allows for easy movement.

No, you do not need a referral to see an Osteopathic Manual Therapist. However, we always recommend keeping your primary healthcare provider informed about your treatments.
