A place for education and testimonies

Dr. Eller has implemented Osteopathic Manipulation Treatments (OMT) into her patient care since 2013. She is a former assistant professor for the Department of Osteopathic Principles and Philosophy for Sam Houston Statue University - College of Osteopathic Medicine, and continues to support the faculty and their students as community trainer teaching future physicians OMT. As of 2026, half of her medical practice is focused on Osteopathic Manipulation Medicine (OMM). She practices multiple styles and treatment techniques and is dedicated to being well rounded in her osteopathic manipulation skills.

'In Episode 167 of the "My DPC Story Podcast," Dr. Maryal Concepcion interviews Dr. Jamie Eller, a dedicated physician whose journey in Direct Primary Care (DPC) began during her second year of residency. Inspired by graduates and colleagues, Dr. Eller balanced teaching at Sam Houston's College of Osteopathic Medicine with her passion for Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM). However, constrained by heavy teaching duties and limited control over patient demographics, she turned her sights toward DPC."

The following osteopathic manipulation techniques are noninvasive and can easily be performed by the physician or patients themselves. For best results. gently massage the area just above the collar bones prior to performing these techniques. These techniques focus on the lymphatic drainage of the ear, nose and throat, and can be helpful in facilitating quicker healing for acute illnesses of the upper respiratory tract, including: ear infections, pharyngitis (viral or strep throat), sinusitis, allergies, and other soft tissue infections of the head and neck.
