(OMT) Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment

Osteopathic manipulative treatment involves moving patients’ muscles and joints using techniques. These include stretching, gentle pressure, and resistance. The targeted movements and pressure work in conjunction to release the restriction and tightness in nerves and muscles.

Osteopathic manipulative therapy treats conditions that affect every system in the body. By realigning the body and restoring balance to bones and muscles, OMT allows your entire body to work better as a whole.

Using OMT, Dr. Stemmerman improves circulation, prevents health problems, soothes tight muscles, relieves joint stiffness, and improves range of motion. At Infinity Medical Clinic, our focus on the whole person prevents, diagnoses, and treats illness and injury, using nonsurgical, hands-on OMT to encourage the body’s natural healing process.
