Osteopathic medicine -- Philosophy : At the still point of the turning world : the art and philosophy of osteopathy / Robert Lever ; foreword by R. Paul Lee
A medical discipline that is based on the philosophy that all body systems are interrelated and dependent upon one another for good health. This philosophy, developed in 1874 by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, recognizes the concept of "wellness" and the importance of treating illness within the context of the whole body. Special attention is placed on the MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM
