FAQs
Below are commonly asked questions. If you have any other questions please reach out here
-
Osteopathic manipulation and medical acupuncture are generally considered safe when performed by a professionally trained provider. Both treatments are designed to support the body’s natural healing processes using minimally invasive, hands-on techniques. At Osteopathic Beginnings, care is tailored to each patient’s health history, symptoms, and physical condition to ensure treatment is both appropriate and effective.
-
Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is a hands-on approach used by doctors of osteopathic medicine (DOs) to assess and support the function of the body’s muscles, joints, and connective tissues.
OMT is based on the principle that the body’s structure and function are closely related. When movement is restricted or imbalanced, it can affect how the body functions as a whole. Through a range of techniques (including gentle pressure, stretching, and guided movement) OMT is used to improve motion, reduce tension, and support overall function.
OMT is performed by fully licensed physicians and is often integrated with conventional medical care.
-
The number of osteopathy sessions needed to feel better can vary based on the nature of your condition, how long symptoms have been present, and how your body responds to care. Some patients experience noticeable relief after just one or two visits, while others benefit from a short series of treatments. Osteopathic care is designed to be individualized, with your treatment plan adapting as your symptoms improve and your body responds.
-
Response to osteopathic manipulation and acupuncture is based off of the chronicity and type of illness your body experiences. Longer exposure to trauma or illness usually requires more treatment than acute injuries. Treatment response with either modality increases with each appointment as muscle imbalances, posture, and metabolic processes respond to the treatments. Response also depends on personal integration of exercises and life-style recommendations provided at the appointment, tailored specifically to your needs.
Often, patients see a positive response for a duration of:
1st treatment: 1 day-1 week
2nd/3rd treatment: 1 week-several weeks
4+ treatments: Several weeks to months
