[CICO @CICOosteopathy]

Do you practice TRUE osteopathy? Or are you simply a therapist who knows some osteopathic techniques?
If you are using the Principles to diagnose and treat, and if you are developing your knowledge of principles and challenging them daily, then its the real thing. #Osteopathy

[CICO @CICOosteopathy]

Did you know muscle energy is actually Principles-based? IT IS! But it is rarely taught that way . . .
When the Principles behind muscle energy techniques are understood, they can be used to treat much more than muscles, and can effect change everywhere!

John Lewis lectured in 2016 for us at Spring Symposium.

Does "classical" mean old, out dated and ineffective? Of course NOT! The reverse is true, the original classical principles of osteopathic treatment are timeless and their applications are infinite!

What is Classical Osteopathy?
Classical Osteopathy is Early American Osteopathy, plain & simple. It is Principles-based diagnosis, treatment & application that stays true to the founding roots as defined by AT Still and stays far away from memorized techniques!

[CICO @CICOosteopathy]

John Lewis lectured last year for us at Spring Symposium. Adam Houston caught up with Mr. Lewis for a 10 question interview about his lecture.

Still always said, DO means "Dig On!" Osteopathy must evolve! Classical osteopathy is evolutionary not static. It is always dynamic, exploring and explaining as we develop the principles and the philosophy set forth by our founder.

[CICO @CICOosteopathy]

Osteopathy is neurologically based. It is not about stretching muscles or shifting a bone back into place . . . the questions need to be deeper in order to effect treatment that is truly therapeutic and corrective.
