What is OMT?!
.
.
OMT, or Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment, is a hands-on treatment taught to all Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.). OMT is using the hands to diagnose and treat somatic dysfunction, which is impaired or altered function of tissues of the body; including skeletal, joints, muscular, fascial, and related vascular, lymphatic, and neural elements.
.
We use OMT to treat numerous musculoskeletal complaints but can also use it to help treat various disease processes. We do this by ensuring the body is properly aligned to allow proper healing, ensure there is adequate blood flow to allow oxygen and nutrients to be transported, and so metabolic waste products can be properly cleared.
.
While all DOs are taught this treatment, a very small percent routinely use OMT in their medical practice. In addition to his training in OMT during medical school, Dr. Clearfield completed additional training in OMT by completing a Fellowship in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) and he completed Residency in Family Medicine & OMM. He also completed a Fellowship in Sports Medicine where he further built upon his OMT skills.
