Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT)

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is a hands-on treatment used by specially trained professionals to help reduce pain, improve mobility, and restore normal movement. Using gentle techniques to promote healthy movement, OMT supports the body’s natural ability to heal and function. Treatment is individualized to each patient and may be used alone or alongside other therapies as part of a whole-body approach to care. Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, OMT focuses on how the body works together to restore healthy motion. 

Expert Trigger Point Dry Needling

Trigger Point Dry Needling targets tight, overactive spots in muscles called trigger points, which can cause pain, radiating discomfort, or nerve irritation. Using very thin, sterile needles, this technique helps:

  • Release muscle tension and knots

  • Reduce localized, radiating, and nerve-related pain

  • Improve blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues

  • Reduce acidity in muscles

Trigger Point Release

Trigger Point Release helps relax tight, sore spots in muscles, easing pain and improving movement. By applying targeted pressure, it can reduce tension, increase blood flow, and help your muscles work more comfortably.

Active Myofascial Release

Active Myofascial Release gently releases tension in the connective tissue around your muscles. By guiding your muscles through movement while applying pressure, it helps reduce tightness, ease pain, and improve flexibility and overall movement.

Integrated Neuromuscular Myofascial Release

Integrated Neuromuscular Myofascial Release (INMR) is an advanced manual therapy that addresses tension and restrictions in both muscles and the surrounding fascial network. Through the precise application of pressure combined with guided movement, INMR promotes the release of adhesions, enhances tissue mobility, reduces discomfort, and restores optimal neuromuscular function.

Muscle Energy Technique

Muscle Energy Technique (MET) is a hands-on therapy that helps improve movement and reduce tension in the spine. Using gentle, controlled muscle contractions guided by a trained clinician, MET can restore spinal joint mobility, relieve back or neck stiffness, and reduce discomfort while supporting proper posture and overall spinal function.

Joint Manipulation

Joint Manipulation is a hands-on technique used to restore proper motion and alignment in the joints. A highly trained professional applies precise, controlled movements to the spine or other joints to reduce stiffness, relieve pain, improve mobility, and support overall function.

Joint Mobilization

Joint Mobilization is a hands-on technique used to gently improve movement and function in stiff or restricted joints. A highly trained professional applies controlled, precise movements to restore mobility, reduce pain, and support overall joint health.

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on approach that focuses on the bones of the skull, spine, and sacrum. A highly trained professional uses subtle touch to release tension, improve fluid movement, and support the body’s natural ability to relax, heal, and function more efficiently.

Therapeutic Exercise

At SpineFocus Physical Therapy, therapeutic exercise is anything but generic. Each program is tailored to your unique movement patterns and guided by Dr. Mark’s hands-on assessment. We combine functional exercises, neuromuscular retraining, and self-corrections to help restore and maintain healthy, pain-free movement.
