Get Help With Common Post C-Section Problems

Scar Adhesions & Restrictions

Your scar tissue can adhere to deeper layers, causing pulling sensations and restricting movement. Osteopathy releases these adhesions layer by layer.

Core Dysfunction

Can't find your abs? Osteopathy helps reconnect the neuromuscular pathways disrupted by surgery.

Numbness or Hypersensitivity

Both are nerve issues that respond well to gentle manual therapy.

Secondary Pain Issues

  • Lower back pain from compensation

  • Hip pain from altered mechanics

  • Pelvic floor dysfunction

  • Digestive issues from adhesions

Osteopathic manual therapists do not make medical diagnoses, prescribe medicine, or perform surgery. Osteopathic manual practitioners are not Osteopathic physicians (DO), who are medical doctors trained in American osteopathic medical colleges. Osteopathic care is not a substitution for medical evaluation or treatment—it works alongside your existing healthcare to support your body's natural healing capacity.

OM Therapy is a safe space for all bodies, including members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. I offer trauma-informed care in a judgment-free environment.
