In this first article of a three-part series, we dive into the history of the Osteopathic full body treatment. By analyzing the book “Osteopathy, Research and Practice” we demonstrate the importance of being full and complete with Osteopathic assessment and treatment as written by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still.
In this article based on an interview with Brandon Stevens M.OMSc we talk about a simple, demonstrable proof for Osteopathic Manual Therapy (OMT). The role that soft tissue and proprioception play in the expression of movement are discussed as it relates to OMT.
In this article we explain and illustrate an arm hold that helps the practitioner generate Thoracic extension. This arm hold is easy to use and gentle enough for a patient who has had previous shoulder injuries and/or limited shoulder mobility.
In this issue we explain a clever assessment application as originally created by Wayne Oliver, M.OMSc. Here we see the effects of the whole body treatment through a singular area of the body (the neck) as a gauge of effectiveness.
