Eyeglass Prescriptions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Expanding on the cranial concept, the physics principles of optics and the primary respiratory mechanism are utilized to \u201cfine-tune\u201d an eyeglass prescription.\u00a0 The services that we offer are not a replacement for an eye exam from a qualified practitioner (this makes certain that your eyes are healthy and just need glasses), but we do use the feedback from the body to give you the eyeglass prescription that will cause the least amount of physical strain possible when wearing your glasses. \u00a0Then we adjust your glasses to your body using the same principles after they are made. \u00a0There are very few practitioners in the world who use this osteopathic approach. \u00a0People travel from many surrounding states and all across Indiana to receive it.<\/p>\n

Dental Evaluation and Treatment<\/strong><\/p>\n

As an extension of the cranial principles, osteopaths can evaluate your teeth and how they work in the mouth from an\u00a0osteopathic\u00a0perspective. \u00a0If your teeth are not coming together properly, they will cause a shift (strain) in the head when the teeth touch. \u00a0This dysfunction will also effect tongue function, swallowing and potentially your airway. \u00a0This can significantly impact your sleep, health and attitude. \u00a0This strain can be felt by a cranial osteopath and can be a diagnostic for\u00a0dental\u00a0issues. \u00a0By working in conjunction with a dentist, and other oral professionals, your osteopath\u00a0can assist in removing these strains and any symptoms that were caused by them, improve your bite, airway and your\u00a0health.<\/p>\n

Postural Evaluation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Standing well requires a delicate balance of forces within the body. \u00a0Few of us do it well due to the trauma (auto accidents, slips and falls, being born, etc.) that we all experience. \u00a0Using a unique evaluation process to understand what part might be related to dental issues, which to vision, which to restricted fascia, etc., and very tiny corrections, your osteopath can begin the correction process to improve and restore your posture into balance. \u00a0Long standing aches and pains may resolve, your gait (the way you walk) will become more efficient, and the body’s structure becomes healthier.<\/p>\n

Bicycle Fit<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Further expanding on the concepts and principles of cranial osteopathy, bicycle fit involves working with the primary respiratory mechanism and the patients bicycle and all of its movable parts to obtain a \u201cunique-to-you\u201d fit.\u00a0 It can dramatically improve your performance and can get you back on the bike if you have been not riding due to discomfort. \u00a0It will maximize your aerobic performance and increase your anaerobic threshold.<\/p>\n

Shoe Fit<\/strong><\/p>\n

Expanding again on the cranial concept in an off-the-shelf world, the primary respiratory mechanism is utilized to guide the fit (and thus the selection and purchase) of shoes.\u00a0 This process guides the patient into why certain shoes work and the reasons (and places) others cause discomfort. The runners and walkers who have used this service have given wonderful reviews.<\/p>\n

Other sports related fittings<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you have ANY gear for a sport, and it has any adjustable\u00a0part to it, the cranial concept can be used to optimize that gear to you. \u00a0Thus far, Charlie has fitted: auto seats, golf clubs, kayaks, canoe\u00a0paddles, bicycles, guns, archery bows, \u00a0shoes and more\u2026with very favorable results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
