Getting Started

We begin with a detailed in-person discussion of your full health history, covering symptoms, lifestyle, and any relevant background, followed by an osteopathic physical exam.

For the core of the session, you will lie comfortably on a padded table while I apply gentle pressure to various areas of the body—such as muscles, joints, and tissues—to identify and release restrictions, thereby supporting your body’s natural balance and self-healing processes.

  • Wear loose-fitting clothing to each appointment.
  • Bring copies of any relevant recent lab results, imaging reports, and a complete list of your current medications, supplements, or vitamins.
  • Refrain from wearing cologne, perfume, or any strong-smelling lotions or sprays.
  • Be patient. Integrative treatment challenges our culture’s symptom-centered health care system. Immediate experiences during treatment can vary, including relaxation, a sense of release, increased mobility, or simply feeling neutral as your body responds.
