Osteopathic and Neuromusculoskeletal Care Approach
Osteopathic medicine combines conventional physician training with additional attention to the musculoskeletal system. A consultation may include medical history, physical examination, assessment of movement, and evaluation of muscles, joints, and surrounding tissues.
Dr. Loving’s current specialty classification is Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine and Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine. Osteopathic manipulative treatment uses physician-guided manual techniques when considered appropriate as part of a broader treatment plan.
OMT is not a substitute for necessary diagnostic testing or specialist treatment. Persistent weakness, unexplained numbness, severe pain following an injury, fever with back pain, or new neurological symptoms may require imaging, laboratory testing, or evaluation by another specialist.
Treatment should therefore be based on the underlying diagnosis rather than assuming that every musculoskeletal symptom can be addressed through manipulation alone.
