Our Approaches to Healing



Osteopathic Manual Medicine
Dr. William Starsiak is an Osteopathic Physician and Osteopathic Manual Medicine (OMM) is the heart of our clinic. OMM involves the hands on manipulation of the body to restore structural balance and was developed by pioneer physician A.T. Still in the mid 1800's.

Dr. Starsiak's approach to OMM is effective, and never painful. He primarily uses "Biodynamic Approach of Osteopathy in the Cranial Field", Bio-Dynamics, Balanced Ligamentous Tension technique, and Indirect Myofascial Release, but he is trained in all Osteopathic manual techniques (including muscle energy, counterstrain, direct myofascial release, facilitated positional release, high velocity low amplitude technique, articulatory technique, trigger point therapy, soft tissue technique) and uses them when appropriate.

​
Osteopathy is useful for many disease states, as many diseases start with a disorder in the body structure.  It's most common application is any sort of pain,  especially a persistent pain that developed following an injury that has not improved on its' own or with other treatments.  ​

BEMER Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field Therapy
BEMER is about changing the way we think about our health, about challenging our understanding of the human body, and about empowering us to reach optimal physical condition in a non-invasive way. Blood flow plays a critical role in our general health. BEMER stimulates healthy muscles to improve and facilitate muscle performance. This stimulation temporarily improves local blood circulation — all in just 8 minutes twice a day! For more than 20 years, the benefits of BEMER have impacted millions of people around the world. BEMER is an FDA cleared consumer medical device that is non-invasive and easy to use.

Photobiomodulation
​

Photobiomodulation (lower level laser therapy). Light energy interacts with the interior of the cells, interstitia, and cell membranes to create photophysical and photochemical (think photosynthesis) changes that result in alteration to your molecules. Photobiomodulation accelerates wound healing, tissue regeneration, increases circulation, reduces inflammation, reduces chronic pain, and helps restore normal cell functions. Overall photobiomodulation decreases pain, improves range of motion, and is beneficial to the body’s healing process. ​

Prolotherapy and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections
​

Prolotherapy harnesses the body's ability to heal itself by attracting and activating the cells that lay down new connective tissue, fibroblasts, to an area of injury / weakness. It has been in use since the early 20th century. This treatment involves injecting either dextrose, whole blood, platelet rich plasma, or another fibroblast attracting substance into a joint or attachment site of a ligament or tendon. There is excellent evidence now for its' usage in many musculoskeletal disorders including arthritis, TMJ disorder, ankle instability, shoulder instability, acute injuries to accelerate return to full activity, female incontinence, to improve female sexual satisfaction (see O-Shot) and more. A treatment series consists of up to 3 injections (however it may only take 1 to achieve the desired result) with a month between each injection. Below you will find a downloadable file with a comprehensive review of the available research on prolotherapy as of 2016.

Fotona Nightlase

Fotona’s NightLase® therapy is a non-invasive, patient-friendly laser treatment for increasing the quality of a patient’s sleep. NightLase reduces the effects of sleep apnea and decreases the amplitude of snoring by means of a gentle, laser-induced tightening effect caused by the contraction of collagen in the oral mucosa tissue.

Picture
Shockwave Therapy 
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that stimulates the body's natural healing process. Shockwaves are acoustic waves that create high-pressure energy pulses. These pulses travel through the body and stimulate blood flow and cell regeneration. As a result, shockwave therapy can effectively treat a wide range of conditions, including tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and other musculoskeletal disorders. The benefits of shockwave therapy are long-lasting and can provide relief from pain for months or even years. 

Shockwave therapy is a safe and effective treatment option for those who are looking for an alternative to surgery or medication. If you are suffering from pain, shockwave therapy may be the answer you've been looking for.




​
Exercise Prescription
Dr. Starsiak creates tailored exercise prescriptions for interested patients. These exercise programs address the individual needs of the patient and sustain the changes accomplished through Osteopathic treatment. Dr. Starsiak personally walks each patient through their exercise prescription to ensure there is no confusion. An exercise prescription session may stand alone, but is more typically added on the end of an Osteopathic Manual Medicine treatment. Once one set of exercises is mastered, new ones are introduced. The end result is that you will have a comprehensive repertoire of exercises that you can use to keep yourself pain free and in optimal balance.






 Nutritional Counseling and Herbal Supplementation

Dr. Starsiak regularly employs nutritional and herbal interventions to assist his patient's healing.  The top 5 causes of death are lifestyle diseases, meaning they arise from unhealthy choices made daily.  Diet effects 4 of those 5 causes of death directly.  So changing one's diet and literally changes one's life.  The approach Dr. Starsiak takes is informed by the ancient Indian system of healing, Ayurveda, and current day evidence based research.  Many of our best pharmacuetical drugs are based off of natural compounds that work really well.  Examples are metformin is from Galega Ofincinalis, Statins are from red yeast rice, Digoxin is from fox glove, and the list goes on and on.  Current research is validating the usage of many herbs frequently be as effective, or in some cases more effective than its' synthetic counterpart.  Of course the doctor is able to write prescriptions using typical pharmacuetical medicines and will allow himself to be guided by patient preference after they have been fully educated.  The pillars of our clinic's nutritional/herbal approach is to build the digestive capacity, avoid the accumulation of incompletely digested food products, incorporate foods to nourish all body tissue types, build and maintain healthy microflora, eat in accordance with the seasons, tailor diets to individual patient needs, and apply herbs to assist in the above process and to treat any diseases that are already present.  Of course, prescription medication has its' place as well and we do not hesitate to use it when indicated.      


Individualized Instruction in Yoga, Breathwork, and Meditation

The jury is in on the benefits of Meditation. 3 recent meta-analysis involving 30,000 people demonstrate significant benefits in anxiety, pain, depression, insomnia, emotional intelligence/empathy, and stress. One of the core principles of Osteopathy is that the body, mind, emotions, and spirit are a unified whole. Therefore, improving the balance in one of those aspects will improve balance in the others, making meditation and breathwork squarely within the spirit and practice of Osteopathy. Dr. Starsiak has practiced meditation and breathwork daily since he was 13 years old. Over the years he has collected many different approaches to practicing meditation and working with the breath.  He will select the approach that will work best for each individual. Furthermore, by practicing both disciplines himself he is well situated to help patients navigate the challenges/questions that arise from beginning these practices.  Our resident Massage therapist and Yoga instructor provides classes for 1-2 individuals at a time, to allow for an experience specifically tailored for the individual.  This helps avoid the risk of self injury by going along with a class that may not quite match an inividual's needs. 


Addiction Medicine
​

We medically treat and counsel patients suffering from addiction.  We weave together our complementary services (i.e. yoga instruction, massage, Osteopathic manipulation, medication assisted addiction treatment, addiction counseling, herbal prescription) to deliver truly holistic care to our patients working to overcome addiction.   We provide this comprehensive medical help in a relaxed, non-punitive, non-judgmental atmosphere.  We can help with alcohol, marijuana, opiate/opioid, cocaine, and food addictions.     
​
Suboxone assisted treatment for opiod dependency/abuse 
​

Opiod and opiate addictions killed over 1000 people in Indiana in 2018, and are destroying many more lives at this very moment.  In fact, today more people die of drug overdoses than any other form of accidental death.  Even when people get medical help to stop using opiates/opiods (i.e. medical detox, which is different from medically assisted treatment) and engage in psychological counseling after detox, 90% of those people return to using opiate/opiods again.

Buprenorphine treatment is different than "medical detox".  Buprenorphine is a medication that targets the same receptors in our body as the commonly misused opiates (ie. heroin, hydrocodone, oxycontin, fentanyl, morphine, etc), but unlike those misused opiates it does not create the "high" that a user is seeking.  It will, however, prevent withdrawl, treat pain, and stop cravings for opiods/opiates without creating significant sedation.  Furthermore, buprenorphine treatment dramatically reduces  the risk of death for someone addicted to opiates.  People who start buprenorphine are more likely to remain off other opiate/opiods, to have better relationships, and to stay employed.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"We can't recommend Dr. Starsiak and his approach enough!! He is wonderful. Our 8 week old daughter cried constantly from day 1. She only slept 4-6 hours every 24 hour period. Mostly in 30 minute increments. While this was draining on her mom and I, we were mainly concerned about our daughter's well being. She seemed like she was constantly in pain. Other doctors and professionals we talked to shrugged it off to, 'she's just a baby' or 'she's probably just colicky'. We are so thrilled we took her to Dr. Starsiak. He identified that she was in pain due to her long birthing and delivery process and was able to relieve that pain through his gentle process. We finally have a baby that is happy, smiling, and has relief from the pain she was experiencing.

If you have been told that your baby is 'just colicky' and they will grow out of it, you need to get a second opinion from Dr. Starsiak."
