We PARTNER with YOU to help
achieve your maximum HEALTH

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment

OMT consists of several types of hands-on techniques designed to mobilize every type of tissue in the body, from muscles and ligaments to joints and fascia, and everything in between. At times this may also involve medication prescriptions, but it will more commonly involve tailored exercise prescriptions to increase and lengthen the impact of each treatment session. By partnering together to optimize the structure of the body, we can dramatically improve its function. There is no greater satisfaction for a patient to achieve a return of good health or enjoy life without painno longer require our services.

  • Nausea

  • Constipation

  • Headaches

  • Lymphedema

  • Breastfeeding difficulty

  • Upper respiratory infection

  • Sprains, strains, and much more

Diagnostic Musculoskeletal Ultrasound

In contrast to other forms of diagnostic imaging, musculoskeletal ultrasound allows the same physician who completes your history and physical exam to also view the related muscle, tendon, ligament, or nerve in both a stationary position and as it moves in real time. This can help obtain a more precise diagnosis, which often leads to better targeted medical or surgical treatment.

  • Shoulders

  • Elbows 

  • Wrists

  • Hips

Ultrasound-Guided Injections

Whether you need a treatment as classic as an anesthetic, steroid, or hyaluronic acid (rooster comb), or you need a treatment as cutting edge as hydrodissection or platelet-rich plasma, you want the solution to reach its destination. Ultrasound-guided injections can be both diagnostic and therapeutic, and they often can help postpone or prevent surgery. They can also be used in post-surgical recovery.

  • Nerve entrapments (e.g., median nerve causing carpal tunnel syndrome, greater occipital nerve causing occipital headaches, saphenous nerve causing knee pain)

  • Partial tendon rupture (e.g., rotator cuff, achilles tendon)

  • Ligamentous laxity (e.g., ankle sprains, connective tissue disease, recent pregnancy)

Extended Consultation

Although detailed and quality evaluation and treatment is provided at every visit in our office, for certain patients with a very complex medical history, it can make a big difference to have an extended visit in order to fully address their needs. For those patients, our Extended Consultation provides in one visit what would be accomplished across multiple standard visits. 

​

Due to the length of the visit, the Extended Consultation is not covered by insurance and is a self-pay service.

​

The Extended Consultation includes but is not limited to

  • 3-5 hours of time with a Family Osteopathy physician

  • A detailed history and physical exam

  • Diagnostic ultrasound

  • Creation of a detailed treatment plan

  • Time spent treating the problems found during the physical exam with osteopathic manipulative medicine to the tolerance of the patient

 

The Extended Consultation does NOT include any injections or other self-pay services.
