At The Essential Healing Center, Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is used to support patients with Parkinson’s disease by addressing the physical and neurologic effects of the condition. Gentle, hands-on techniques help reduce muscle rigidity, improve joint mobility, and ease postural strain that commonly develops with Parkinson’s. OMT also supports circulation, breathing mechanics, and nervous system balance, which can contribute to improved movement efficiency, comfort, and body awareness. While OMT does not treat or cure Parkinson’s disease, it can be a meaningful complement to medical care by helping patients move with greater ease, manage stiffness and pain, and maintain function.
