Founded 150 years ago by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, Osteopathy teaches us that body is a self-healing unit with a close correlation between structure and function and in order to recover functionality, one should fix structure. Osteopathic techniques enable body to recover itself in a natural way. It has been shown through research that osteopathy is the best option for chronic back pain. It will help you to reach your maximal range of motion, while enjoying a pain-free life.
“When it comes to healing, Mehrbod makes it happen! I recently had a back pain treatment which helped me heal an old back discomfort that I was holding on to for years. he, lead me through a therapeutic session, and helped me feel better after a few sessions. After the treatment, I felt as if a heavy presence was removed from back. It was a great feeling!”
“Given the opportunity of trying out an osteopath for my body pain, seeing ‘Seyed’ has given me new hope. His sincere teaching and ability to assess body dynamics gives him a proud and humble inner self worth to be proud of, and makes the client see how he enjoys his profession. Continue on, in believing in yourself and make the world that much better with your methods of teaching, learning, and healing our body’s pain we go through.”
I can only recommend this place. My sessions with Mehrbod were great and brought me relief. He is very knowledgeable and also do the viscerals so it was very helpful for my situation. After 2 sessions I can eat quite normally again and my neck has more mobility. He takes the time and explains everything clearly. Thank you so much.
I had the privilege of being under the care of Mehrbod for my chronic back and neck pain, and I can’t praise his expertise and approach enough. After trying RMT and chiropractic with little success, I was losing hope. Mehrbod’s meticulous analysis of my posture and structure, along with his precise adjustments and exercises, has been a game-changer. Thanks to his systematic, holistic, and evidence-based methods, I’m now mostly pain-free after just a few months. Mehrbod’s comprehensive knowledge of the human body and his ability to target specific areas is truly impressive. Moreover, his genuine care for his patients and engaging conversations make the healing process even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Mehrbod for anyone struggling with chronic back pain.
“I would recommend this place to everyone. I was diagnosed with TMJ disorder and locked jaw and could barely open my mouth, let alone eat much. After only 2 sessions with Mehrbod, I was able to open my mouth and eat again. It was the first time I began to feel hopeful in my condition. Not only did I see results, Mehrbod is an osteopath who genuinely cares about his patients and want to help them be pain free. He is very knowledgeable and hands-on in your healing journey and is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met!”
