Hands-on treatment

Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) for Children

Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) involves using gentle pressure, stretching, and manipulation of movements to identify and correct structural imbalances in a child’s body.

  • How It Works: OMM helps improve body alignment and nerve function by releasing tension in muscles and tissues. This supports the body’s innate ability to heal and self-regulate, ensuring optimal communication between the brain and the body.

  • Improving Development: For children, OMM can be highly beneficial in addressing a variety of concerns, including feeding difficulties, chronic ear infections, constipation, and musculoskeletal issues related to pregnancy and the birth process. By optimizing the body’s mechanics, OMM promotes improved nervous system function and supports overall physical development.

Dr. Johnson’s use of OMM made all the difference—my baby went from struggling with reflux and feeding at the breast to latching with ease- it truly gave us the breastfeeding journey that I hoped for!
