Abstract:

Facilitated oscillatory release is a method and conceptual lens for applying oscillatory force in an osteopathic treatment sequence to normalize muscle tone and articular balance. Not a free standing modality, it has been mostly integrated into the focal treatment style popular with American osteopaths, as an adjunct to high velocity low amplitude (HVLA), muscle energy (MET) or connective tissue release techniques. The concepts can complement many types of bodywork. On review of the scientific literature, it is speculated that rhythmic peripheral afferent input can enable the resetting of normal postural muscle tone. The associated neurophysiologic theory and research may help further validate osteopathic diagnosis and treatment on a wider scale.
