Beschreibung

In this episode, Jamie unpacks the well-known — and often misunderstood — phrase “Find it, Fix it, Leave it alone,” attributed to Andrew Taylor Still, the founder of osteopathy. He explores how the true meaning behind these words has been diluted over time, and how osteopathy risks being reduced to just another form of manual therapy. Jamie argues that osteopathy is a principled, philosophy-driven approach to patient care and this is what sets osteopaths apart. At its core, osteopathy is about clinical reasoning, respect for the body’s inherent capacity to self-regulate, and knowing when intervention is necessary — and when it is not.   Discover The LXO, online and face to face courses at www.theosteopathicacademyofappliedtechnique.com
