Shouldn't I just get an MRI?
An MRI will show a detailed static picture.
If you are over 25 years of age it will very likely show such things as 'disc bulges', 'herniations', 'osteophytes', 'foraminal encroachment', 'stenosis', to name a few.
Most of these findings, while they may have interesting names, are par for the course in normal aging. They tell you nothing about how your body is functioning and about the imbalances that may be causing your symptoms.
Many people have unpleasant looking MRIs with no symptoms whatsoever, whereas others have clear MRIs but severe symptoms.
If you would like to get to the root of your problem and find out how it can be dealt with, our 'TBD' will do just that for you.

Your musculoskeletal system is the'primary machinery of life' and accounts for the largest expenditure of energy in your body.
Although it is designed to self repair, just like any other mechanical system, it is subject to trauma, wear & tear & ageing.
Even in the absence of major accidents, microtrauma and stress will accumulate & gradually overload the body.
Eventually minor irritation becomes raging & widespread inflammation, and small niggles become very obvious aches & pains.
At this stage your nervous system no longer functions smoothly, and the nerve signals become more & more erratic & confused.
As the majority of body functions are controlled by the brain & nervous system, this results in impaired function throughout your body's systems, whether it's pain, digestive troubles, menstrual issues, low energy, breathing problems, insomnia etc
Treatment that quietens down an agitated nervous system and encourages normal nerve impulse transmission will result in often rapid improvement in general wellbeing, as well as pain reduction allowing you to function at your best.
We use a unique combination of techniques that are based on sound physiology and can quickly, gently & effectively switch off pain and turn on function. This is NOT a REVAMPING of old treatment methods commonly used, but a DISTINCTIVELY NEW APPROACH that you are unlikely to have come across previously.
Our method works directly on your nervous system to restore normal nerve activity and as a result dampen down inflammation and restore vitality & function.
Rather than using a 'shotgun'approach and hoping for a result, the techniques we use are very targeted to directly restore normal nerve flow where it is blocked or inhibited.
Why haven't I heard much about Osteopathy?
While Osteopaths have been around since the late 1800s and there are many D.O.s in the USA who have trained at osteopathic universities, unfortunately currently only about 1% of them practice Manual Osteopathy (although this is gradually changing).....in contrast to the UK, Europe & Australasia where Manual Osteopathy has long been regarded as a part of the mainstream medical profession & has proved its value over many other therapies on offer.
Our TBD gives you the opportunity to assess what osteopathy has to offer your situation with no obligation to yourself. Don't miss out on what may prove to be the solution you've been looking for!

"After 7 years of trying to find relief from debilitating lower back pain around the sacrum, from chiropractors and pain management specialists, I was finally referred to John and his osteopathic manual practice. The decision to try osteopathic treatment was the best that surprised me with remarkable results! Even the first treatment brought cautious optimism: although it involved allowing him to touch the area that caused me excruciating pain - an area which before then had consistently caused tears if anyone so much as grazed it- things soon began looking up after four sessions were completed; miracle of miracles, I found myself in no more pain. After all of these years of suffering. I only wish I would have found John years ago because he would have saved me from so much suffering. I recommend anyone that I meet in pain to John. He is an amazing Osteopathic Practitioner!!"

About a year ago I was diagnosed with a torn tendon in my right shoulder. I saw an orthopaedic surgeon who was going to operate on my shoulder.
My husband asked me to go to John for a second opinion. I'm so glad I did!
For the year prior to seeing John, I could not do any of the following without pain:
Lift anything away from my body or above my shoulders
Push anything with moderate force
And, most importantly, could not swing a golf club properly, as each swing caused pain.
I had about 7-8 treatments over a period of 5-6 weeks.
I am PERFECT NOW. I'm so glad john treated me as:
I'm playing golf pain free
I did not end up having costly shoulder surgery (let alone the long recovery)
I can lift things again
the treatment was amazing - with unbelievable results.
Thankyou John!

I have been using the manual medicine treatment consistently for about 3 months. I have to say that John has definitely helped me with stenosis, herniated disks and associated pain. I wanted to stay away from steroid injections, pain meds and unwanted back surgery. This was definitely one of the best decisions I made for my health. You won't get instant relief for all your ailments, but I combined consistent treatments with rest, decent nutrition and plenty of movement. This combination has proven to be my super power. Over the next year it will cost me the about same amount as my co-pay for back surgery! I'm absolutely delighted with the results.

One year after neck surgery, an accident left me with severe pain in my neck, the left side of my back, shoulder and different spots throughout the spine. Before the accident, I was an avid pickle ball player and due to the constant pain and getting worse when I played, I stopped. I had bad pain when I walked, when I sat longer then 15 minutes, when I stood for long like cooking and my back and shoulder hurt bad after reading, being on the computer or sewing. When I got up from a sitting position, it took several minutes before straightening up and the pain to subside; however, the pain was always present. I had cervical facet injections, thoracic injections and lower back injections. I had other therapies including Airrosti, Chiropractic, pain medicine, ointments etc. These things only worked temporarily for me. Last October, my Orthopedic surgeon stated that the only thing left for me was to have surgery throughout my back.
I started treatment with John at the Manual Medicine Clinic, in December 2020. After 3 treatments, my husband began to notice that I could get up from a sitting position without being hunched over. I noticed the pain was not present all the time. My sleep was much better.
After 2 months of treatments, I am doing well now. I have played pickle ball a few times already and the pain is not there. I feel a little soreness for a little while and it goes away. I am walking three miles and there’s no lingering pain. I can cook a whole meal without the constant pain in my back and neck and not having to lie down to feel relief in the middle of cooking. I sleep through the night. I thank John so much for the great job of putting me back together. The treatment is great and I recommend it to any one who has pain anywhere in their body. John is an excellent Osteopathic Manual Practitioner. What a find! Thank you John!

A few years ago I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I had ongoing soreness and felt miserable. I didn't expect much when I went to the Manual Medicine Clinic. However, after 4-5 treatments, which were very gentle, I noticed my muscles were getting less sensitive. By about 2-3 months later, after 12 or so treatments, my pain had almost 'magically' disappeared and my head felt much clearer. Although I've continued to feel generally good, I've had a treatment once every 2-3 months as I always feel even better after! I recently had a frozen shoulder which John fixed in about 5 treatments.

Dr John Baijal has been my osteopath for over 12 years. I work in an active profession, and he has always been able to remedy my ailments - be it muscle tension leading to headaches, or a stiff/sore back or neck that has been reducing my mobility and comfort. Within a few treatments, I am back to feeling great, and do not require ongoing medication or treatments to keep up this feeling of well-being. I happily recommend him to anyone seeking osteopathic care.

I was diagnosed with Femoral Acetabular Impingement and had groin and buttock pain every night for the last 3 months.
I had several physical therapy treatments with slight relief.
After one session with John my hip feels amazing! "The neurological techniques are like magic, it's incredible!"

I just wanted to thank you for treating our entire family and friends over the years. I have recommended your professional services to anyone requiring Osteopathic treatment. As a health professional myself (a Podiatrist), I recognise that your treatment methods surpass others in your field that I have come in contact with.
I personally have a long history of sacroiliac pain, sciatic pain and neck pain due to pinching a nerve at one stage. John, you have been the only Osteopath to have resolved my pain issues within a short space of time. The pain has seldom returned and if it has a quick treatment by yourself and it is resolved.
Thanks to your treatments I am now back to healthy, pain free activity.

I suffered from what I call 'Dentist's neck & shoulder'.......pain in the neck &shoulders as well as mid back pain,
a condition that seems prevalent amongst my profession.
My symptoms had been bothering me off & on for years but had worsened over a couple of months
Bowen therapy helped my right shoulder but the other symptoms persisted.
A relative of mine suggested trying an osteopath. I didn't know what to expect.
John suggested that 7-8 treatments would probably deal with my immediate problem & about 12 to change it more significantly.
The pain started easing within a few treatments with a significant change after 5 treatments.
I am now much better & find occasional maintenance keeps me functioning at my best.

My husband couldn't move because his back muscles seemed frozen. After 3 sessions he feels flexible so he will continue going because as an ex golfer he ruined some important flexibility muscles. Love this treatment!!
