Abstract:

The Osteopathic approach to health care is not based upon performing sequential manipulative techniques, but in expressing the philosophy of Osteopathy in a clinical context. Historically, few attempts have been made to create a collection of clinically relevant guiding principles. The Osteopathic profession needs a unique set of historically accurate principles that express our distinctiveness in a health care environment that contains many choices in alternative medicine as well as mainstream medicine. These ten core principles are derived from the extensive writings of Andrew Taylor Still and are a refinement and a modern translation of his 19th Century writing style into a 21st Century perspective.
