What is OMM ?

NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine physicians use a set of hands-on techniques known as osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) to treat a variety of conditions. This includes back pain, musculoskeletal issues, Parkinson’s disease, and many other ailments. OMM incorporates a holistic approach, viewing the body as a self-healing structure with interconnected systems and functions dependent upon each other for optimal health.
