Introduction to Manual Medicine – An Osteopathic Perspective was inspired based on a need in the Osteopathic profession, which lacks an introductory text for 1st and 2nd year Osteopathic medical students. More than just a cook-book type procedure manual, this text focuses on principles for diagnosis and treatment, the “why” of manual medicine, treatment sequencing, and evidence underlying manual medicine. This text’s primary focus is to:
1. Teach principles
2. Simplify confusing material
3. Bring to light new material and how to apply it
4. Present evidence-based medicine
5. Demystify Osteopathic medicine in the cranial field
6. Present Sequencing
We also recognize that with the joining of the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine and the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education there is need for a text to train MD’s; this text bridges the gap. Further, we feel the post-graduate educational courses could utilize this text in refresher courses.
