Just got back from the 2017 osteopathic conference where motivated osteopaths learned from one another till midnight, after workshops were over. We continue to learn how one anatomical region connects to what feels like an unrelated other part of the body.
You might have back pain which may not just be related to your pelvis, your posture and your legs/feet, but could also be related to your organs, your fascia, your lymphatic system, your childhood trauma. This symptom of back with shooting leg pain may be treated by hands-on treatments. Your acid-reflux may be treated by visceral manipulation. Your headaches may be treated by osteopathy in the cranial field.
