The Role of Osteopathy in Chronic Pain 

What is Pain?

Pain can be short-term and caused by an accident, injury, or minor surgical procedure.

Pain can be chronic or long-term due to an underlying condition. Pain is not a diagnosis but a condition brought about by a chronic health issue such as osteopenia, osteoporosis, arthritis, and various other diagnoses.

Many times, traditional medicine treats you with pain medication (avoiding narcotic medications due to government regulations) but does not treat the underlying condition.

Mobility Spine and Sports in Fort Lauderdale, FL, does pain management and may agree that Osteopathy is a different ballgame in medicine and goes far beyond what medical doctors learn in school and practice. In recent years, conventional and osteopathic doctors have collaborated on more advanced treatments related to Osteopathy.

A Doctor of Osteopathy examines the whole body and determines how to treat the underlying condition first through proven alternative treatment options. Your pain type and level  is unique to you alone.

Pain robs you of your quality of life, so you must learn about it to effectively control it. Your pain management plan is unique and different from another person’s. According to Osteopathic Medicine, “the foundation of Osteopathy has two elements:

  • The restoration of bodily structure and function through palpatory assessment and manipulative treatment.
  • And a holistic view that includes physical, mental, and spiritual health.”

Osteopathy uses a multidisciplinary approach to decreasing or eliminating chronic pain, including skeletal, arthrodial, myofascial, vascular, and lymphatic modalities. Sometimes, the doctor can’t resolve the pain entirely. However, our doctor likely enhances healing processes by improving mobility and flexibility, thus decreasing pain.

These techniques work if you suffer from lower back pain, pregnancy or postpartum pain, or non-cancer pain. Our doctor can help stabilize joints and internal hardware in musculoskeletal conditions at any age and in any condition, thus decreasing or eliminating chronic pain.  Additionally, treatments like Osteopathic Manipulation, Neuromuscular Reeducation, Interventional injections, and PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy are available to address back and hip pain with a holistic and regenerative approach. These therapies aim to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and improve mobility, providing patients with comprehensive options for pain relief.
