About Us

Medicine that treats the whole person — not just the problem

Star Valley Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine was founded on a simple conviction: the body is smarter than we give it credit for. When structure aligns, circulation improves, nerves communicate freely, and the body's own healing mechanisms can do what they were designed to do.

Our practice in Alpine, Wyoming, blends the full scope of osteopathic medicine with hands-on Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT). Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, post-surgical recovery, or simply want to optimize your health, we take the time to understand your story — your lifestyle, your goals, and what brings you through your door.

Hands-on techniques to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness by moving muscles, joints, and soft tissues to restore proper function and support the body's natural healing.

Comprehensive medical care that looks at the big picture — from routine check-ups and screenings to chronic condition management and wellness planning.

Musculoskeletal & Pain Management

Targeted treatment for back pain, neck pain, joint issues, sports injuries, and repetitive strain — using OMT to address the root cause, not just the symptom.

Headache & Migraine Relief

Osteopathic approaches to reduce frequency and intensity of headaches and migraines by addressing tension, posture, and structural imbalances in the neck and skull.

Post-Surgical Recovery

Support your body's healing process after surgery with gentle OMT to improve circulation, reduce scar tissue, and restore mobility and comfort.

Wellness & Performance

Whether you're an athlete, active professional, or simply want to feel your best, we help optimize your body's function for peak performance and longevity.

Our Approach

A different kind of medical visit

At Star Valley OMM, you're never just a chart number. From the moment you walk in, you'll notice the difference — a slower pace, a real conversation, and a treatment plan built around you, not a template.

Listen

We start by understanding your full story — your symptoms, your history, your goals, and what matters most to you.

Examine

Using both conventional diagnostics and osteopathic structural assessment, we identify what's truly driving your symptoms.

Treat

Our hands-on OMT techniques work with your body's own systems to restore balance, relieve pain, and promote healing.

Support

Healing doesn't stop at the visit. We provide guidance, follow-up, and ongoing care to keep you on track.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know

Starting osteopathic care is a decision, and we want you to feel confident every step of the way. Here are answers to the questions we hear most often.

Still have questions?

Call Us

What is Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT)?

OMT is a hands-on technique that osteopathic physicians use to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness. Through gentle pressure and manipulation, we move muscles, joints, and soft tissues to improve circulation, relieve pain, and support the body's natural healing processes. It's safe for patients of all ages.

Is OMT covered by insurance?

Many insurance plans, including Medicare, cover OMT when it's medically necessary. We encourage you to call our office and we'll help verify your coverage before your first visit so there are no surprises.

Do I need a referral to see you?

No referral is needed. You can schedule an appointment directly. Whether you're seeking care for a specific condition or want a more holistic approach to your health, we're here to help.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Please bring a photo ID, your insurance card, a list of current medications, and any relevant medical records or imaging results. Comfortable clothing is recommended since some OMT may require you to change into a gown.

How many sessions will I need?

Every patient is different. Some experience relief in just a few sessions, while others benefit from an ongoing maintenance plan. During your initial visit, we'll discuss a personalized approach based on your specific needs and goals.
