Learn more about Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine Doctors

A neuromusculoskeletal medicine (NMM) doctor is a doctor of osteopathic medicine (DO) who specializes in using hands-on, osteopathic evaluation and manipulative medicine to treat a variety of physical and mental conditions. NMM doctors focus on the relationship between your health and your neuromusculoskeletal system (nerves, muscles, bones, skull and spine).

All DOs learn the fundamentals of osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) in medical school before pursuing their residency in a variety of different specialties, such as family medicine or internal medicine. However, a DO who pursues a residency in neuromusculoskeletal medicine (NMM) and osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) has a deeper understanding of applying OMT to patients with a broad range of conditions, from acid reflux to arthritis to depression.
