Research

The following excerpts attempt a balance between presenting scientific research and explaining the body’s processes in terms for all readers. The themes of the research are as follows:

• The application of OMM decreases pain of all forms in the body both at the time of a treatment as well as days, weeks, perhaps months later.

• Hospitalized patients that receive treatment, regardless of the diagnosis responsible for their admission, use fewer medications, have less pain and are discharged home several days sooner than their untreated counterparts.

• OMM is effective at treating a variety of organ systems and problems. Some of these issues are problems you would expect to benefit such as headaches, back pain, or migraines. Other issues that are improved might be surprising such as pneumonia or asthma, bowel obstructions or pancreatitis, abnormal heart rhythms, vertigo and more.
