Osteopathy = Hands On Medicine that Works
Osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) means hands-on medical care where both diagnosis and treatment are carried out with the hands. It is relaxing and health benefits are usually immediate.
Through osteopathy, lymph movement is facilitated which is vital to health. Where lymph is not moving you will likely experience pain, tenderness, and inflammation. Osteopathy helps encourage this process.
Shock, trauma, injury, or the many mental and physical stresses of living in this busy world can cause a variety of negative symptoms in the body-mind. Helping to release, relax and encourage the healing of these tensions is crucial.
With hands-on osteopathic medicine, supplemented by Dr. Teves' simple, gentle Polydiaphragmatic Breathing method, you will feel increased vitality, hope, and wholeness.
Many patients who practice this breathing method have experienced improvements in their general sense of ease in their body, a decrease of inflammatory pain, and relief from other symptoms simply by breathing more effectively and consciously. You'll be amazed that breathing more fully leads to such benefit.
Appointments available in Ithaca Wednesday and Thursdays, and in our new offices at Wellness Centered in Vestal on Mondays.
