Manual Osteopathic Therapist, MOT
At Encompass Sports Therapy, our Manual Osteopathy services focus on helping patients restore balance, mobility, and function through hands-on treatment techniques. Manual osteopaths are trained to assess and treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, with a whole-body approach to care.
Manual osteopathy is a form of therapy that emphasizes the relationship between the body’s structure and function. Using a variety of manual techniques, manual osteopaths work to improve alignment, mobility, and circulation, while reducing pain and muscle tension. This approach supports the body’s natural ability to heal and adapt.
