Hi, this isn't a new podcast, I recorded this with Chris Campbell probably about a year ago and it is on the ICO YouTube channel. However, there was some recent conversation about current osteopathic standards of education verses the earlier education, and this webinar is a window into the standards of the day, see what you think. It also discusses the early arguments about general treatment verses specific treatment, when general treatment wasn't specific and when it was. This then leads into JM Littlejohn's approach to treating someone with what was called "neurasthenia" which is akin to ME ..read more

Hendrik is a Swiss national living and working in Switzerland, he is dedicated to the development of osteopathy, is incredibly knowledgable and inspiring.

I have been really lucky to work with some incredible osteopaths over the years, mainly in an academic capacity. I have known Chris for about 13 years and have always been impressed with his knowledge and skill as an osteopath, he is one of the best.

This is the approach Alice has taken with this article, she has understood that their view is governed by where they are standing and can see this view is the medical view which was likely to be in place during their upbringing and d ..read more
