OMT Targets in Chronic Pain

Muscle Guarding

• Chronic pain often leads to reflexive muscle tightening (guarding), which limits motion and perpetuates pain.
• OMT techniques like muscle energy and counterstrain relieve hypertonicity, restore range of motion, and reduce nociceptive input.

Autonomic Nervous System Dysregulation

• Chronic stress/pain activates the sympathetic nervous system (fight-or-flight), worsening inflammation and reducing healing.
• OMT techniques (for example, craniosacral therapy, rib raising) help balance autonomic tone, decreasing sympathetic overactivity and enhancing parasympathetic function.

Somatic Dysfunction

• Chronic pain often localizes dysfunctions in joints, fascia, and viscera.
• Soft tissue, HVLA, and myofascial release techniques restore normal alignment and improve proprioception.
