A Holistic Approach to Managing Depression: Osteopathic Treatment Explained.

People often consider going to their family doctor, a psychologist, or a psychiatrist for assistance when they are depressed or trying to manage depression, but what about an osteopath? Those with mood disorders, mental health problems, and depression brought on by long-term medical ailments can benefit from the therapeutic, drug-free, and all-encompassing care that an osteopath can offer.

Why You May Want to Consult an Osteopath?

In addition to focusing on a patient’s physical health, osteopathic doctors also consider the patient’s mental, emotional, and psychological well-being. The body, as well as the mind and soul, are all included in the comprehensive medical care that an osteopath offers. An osteopath can therefore be extremely helpful in helping to address your depression and other mental health problems.

An Alternative to Medication for Depression.

Many patients with depression can benefit from osteopathic therapy, whether they are trying to avoid anti-depressants, wean themselves off of their existing medications, or are just looking for an alternative therapy that complements their present prescription and therapeutic plan.

Osteopathic manipulative therapy (OMT) offers patients a more comprehensive approach to treating their depression, which may include exercise, dietary and nutritional improvements, as well as other treatments besides medicine. When treating a patient, an osteopathic physician also considers the “bigger picture.” The purpose of the osteopath is to treat the underlying cause of the chronic pain in order to promote physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing if a patient has chronic pain and is experiencing depression as a result.

It’s time to talk to an osteopath if depression is affecting your quality of life and wellness to see if osteopathic manipulation therapy can be a good fit for you. Osteopathic medicine can be a secure, useful, and complimentary choice to assist you in better managing your depression symptoms.
