In this thought-provoking episode, Jamie Archer explores one of the defining skills of osteopathy: palpation. Has modern osteopathic education shifted too far towards memorising orthopaedic tests and clinical protocols at the expense of developing the osteopathic hand?
Through the principles of A.T. Still, applied anatomy, structure and function, clinical reasoning and osteopathic philosophy, this episode examines why palpation is far more than identifying restrictions. Discover how touch, anatomy and physiology combine to help osteopaths better understand the patient and why developing palpation is a lifelong journey.
Essential listening for osteopaths interested in osteopathic principles, osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), clinical anatomy and postgraduate osteopathic education.
