Osteopathy is a philosophy and a holistic alternative practice in medicine which emphasizes the interrelationship between structure and function of the body and recognizes the body's ability to heal itself. Dr. Berardi, who has over 20 years of practice experience and is certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine, is a Fellow of the American College of Osteopathic Internists who specializes in Osteopathic Manipulation. If you're struggling with muscular skeletal problems or looking to improve performance Osteopathic Manipulation is for you. Each treatment is unique and does not resemble what is generally thought of when the word ‘manipulation’ is used. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) is the therapeutic application of manually guided forces by an osteopathic physician to improve physiologic function and/or support homeostasis. It is the role of the physician to facilitate that process, principally by the practice of manual and manipulative therapy . The treatment begins with an examination and analysis of your whole body, including the problem areas. Based on that information, Dr. Berardi then tailors the treatment to each individual from visit to visit. Osteopathic Manipulation helps restore vitality and function to damaged tissue and is growing rapidly in popularity as a method of injury prevention. In addition to the direct hands-on manipulation, Dr. Berardi provides individuals with movement and behavioral education to aid them in lessening trauma associated with chronic and acute musculoskeletal complaints. The benefits of Osteopathic Manipulation include relief of chronic pain, ease of movement, improved posture and a sense of emotional wellbeing.
