 VISCERAL  &  SYSTEMIC  CONDITIONS

The development of imbalances and compensatory patterns
contribute to the development of weakness...
which negatively alter body functions and physiology.

Most Chronic Conditions are Soft Tissue related.




Visceral  &  Systemic  Conditions...

Chronic Conditions such as  Frozen Shoulder,  Neck pain,  TMJ  disorders,  Lower Back Pain,  Groin Pulls...  and so on...  are more easily described and understood.  And then there are conditions that are more highly integrated with other body parts and systems.  Relationships can not only be with the outer most tissues, but the innermost tissues as well... such as Organs & Glands.... and body systems such as the Nervous System and the Circulatory System.

These Chronic Conditions are generally more elusive, unclear... and are often more unresponsive to treatment or even explanation...  For example:


Poor Circulation ... HyperTension
Breathing Difficulties ... Parkinson's Disease
Multiple Sclerosis ... Arthritis & General Stiffness
FibroMyalgia ... Connective Tissue Disorders
Depression & Anxiety ... Fatigue
Hyatal Hernia ... Acid Reflux Syndrome
Irritability & Nervousness ... Learning Disorders
Memory Loss ... Postural / Structural Disorders
Scoliosis (Lateral & Rotational) ... Stress Related Conditions
Neuritis & Neuralgia ... Abdominal-Pelvic Conditions & Discomfort
Digestive Conditions ... Headaches & Migraines
...and so on...



There are also other conditions that seem to be unresponsive to present treatments.  Some people eventually give up... and some people keep searching for a health care professional who is able to begin to offer some help and relief.  Some conditions are easier to 'help and relieve'... and some are much more complex, elusive and less responsive to treatments.  But, it is important not to give up.  During my years in practice, we have been pleasantly surprised with the results achieved in treating some of the more complicated conditions.



Most  Chronic  Conditions  are  Soft  Tissue  Related...
therefore,  in  most  cases,  we  can  help.

Visceral Manipulation Therapy is only one
of the Osteopathic Techniques utilized in this practice.
