Wellness Wednesday: What is the difference between an osteopath and a chiropractor? More people seem to know about chiropractors than about osteopaths. This is because historically, chiropractors have been more active in promoting and publicizing their work. Osteopathy is often referred to as “the best kept secret in pain management."

The primary difference between an osteopathic physician and a chiropractor are their levels of training and the scope of their practice. A chiropractor is not a licensed medical physician, and is not required to have completed a hospital-based residency training, as are MDs and DOs. Osteopaths are able to practice all scopes of medicine or surgery, like MDs. They can write prescriptions, order blood work, x-rays or scans.

While chiropractors employ techniques for manipulating the spine, osteopaths employ a wider range of techniques over the entire body, thus taking a more holistic approach to assisting their patient back towards health. Apart from manipulation, osteopaths are also trained in cranial osteopathy or craniosacral therapy, which involves very subtle and gentle movements without any “cracking” of the joints. These techniques are seldom used by chiropractors. Cranial osteopathy manipulates the soft tissues and fluids of the body’s systems to restore circulation, proper alignment and function.

"I wish I had contacted Dr. Johnston sooner. It’s rare that you can find such a knowledgeable/credentialed and caring healer who actually has time to see new patients and diligently investigate their needs. I have been lucky enough to continue to see him and was recommended to contact his practice for general care and a few specific issues. Dr. Johnston has magical healing hands and an impeccable “bedside manner.” Each visit I feel I’m leaving better than my prior one." - Gio W.
