Episode 6: Where Osteopathy Began with guest Jason Haxton

Between them, there is nothing Jason Haxton and Jamie Archer do not know about A.T. Still, the origins of Osteopathy and the techniques he used. In this episode be riveted by Jason's fascinating recounts of the history of A. T. Still and osteopathy and discover the roots of osteopathy. Jason Haxton, MA, DO (h.c.) has been the director of the Museum of Osteopathic Medicine since January 2001. Besides managing the Museum that was created in 1934, he makes multiple international trips each year as an addition to many osteopathic online curriculums. He provides lectures, historic research materials and promotes the principles of osteopathic medicine through exhibits in the USA and abroad. At A.T. Still University in Kirksville he keeps busy as Advisor to SAHOPs (Society for the Advancement of Historical Osteopathy and Philosophy Organization), along with teaching medical students and welcoming guests from around the world to the museum. Jason worked on a variety of documentaries which includes the Historical Emmy award PBS 2017: The Feminine Touch Spanish 2019: The Science of Osteopathy and German 2020: Osteopathie Heilen mit den Handen. He authored Andrew Taylor Still – Father of Osteopathic Medicine a biography for young readers (10-12 years). This is the first book of its kind approved for school curriculum in social studies.

Episode 3: Are We Losing our Hands and our Osteopathy?

Are we becoming better clinicians… while quietly losing what makes us osteopaths? In this episode, we explore a shift happening across the profession. Stronger treatment, more repetition, more general approaches—and the growing reliance on tools and protocols. But what’s really driving it? This isn’t about blaming modern practice. It’s about asking a harder question: Are we drifting away from osteopathic principles and losing the ability to think and treat through our hands? If you’ve ever felt uncertain at the table, relied on force instead of clarity, or questioned whether your hands are where they should be—this conversation will challenge you. Because what you’re capable of as an osteopath might be far beyond what you’re currently experiencing.

Episode 2: Find it! Fix it! Leave it alone! - The Misunderstanding of Osteopathy

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
