Osteopathic Care for Persistent Pain in Etobicoke

Can Osteopathy Help With Persistent Pain?

A different way of looking at the body!

Patients often seek Osteopathic treatment to aid in recovery with long-lasting injuries/pain. The aim of the assessment and treatment is to build a complete picture of the concerns creating the pain rather than directly targeting the site of pain. The detailed assessment and full body approach allows the practitioner to slowly remove layers of restricted tissue that limit the body from healing and moving pain free.

What Individualized Treatment Means

Treatment is chosen based on how the patient presents on the day rather than applying a fixed protocol for a general symptom. Even though patients may experience pain in similar areas, the causation of the pains may be different. For example, someone’s shoulder may be restricted by muscle of the mid-thoracic spine while another shoulder may be restricted by hip dysfunction. These conclusions are drawn through structural assessment and treatment.

When to Seek Medical Assessment

Manual treatment is not a substitute for medical assessment when symptoms may require medical diagnosis or urgent care. If your symptoms have been progressing at an alarming rate, please contact your primary physician or emergency medical care.
