Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment Protocol for Pain Management During Pregnancy

[@predragdrzaljevic1609]

Very gentle, safe, and effective techniques. KZbin definitely needs more of this kind of content in order to educate the public how real treatments should actually look like, as opposed to 2 seconds joint manipulation-job done-see you next month nonsense

Wonderful Lesson. Well explained all specifics .🙏

[@marekczeladzki7774]

Super.thank you!

[@eddasilva6679]

This is great. I’ve just finished my MSc in Osteopathy in London. I’m gonna explore these techniques.

Really? You went to School for 4 Years + all the supervised Hours of Treating patients before graduating and you were never exposed to this Protocol? 🙄🙄🙄

[@tybera1114]

@@ZENSIBLE In case folks were confused Osteopathy in the UK is not equivalent to a D.O Medical degree as it is in the US, "Osteopaths" in the UK don't learn medicine, nor are they able to practice as physicians.

This is very informative and interesting as I am an aspiring osteopathic physician. In the college I am at now, many students, inclusing myself, would like to know what seperates an OMM specialist from a doctor of physical therapy? Also, are any chiropractic techniques used and taught? Lastly, how would an OMM specialist go about preventing wear and tear on their own body?

[@morganleigh5142]

Hi I'm a current third year at an osteopathic medical school. Hopefully I can clear some of that up for you! The difference between OMM and PT is that Osteopathic Doctors are medical doctors that also will do everything that your typical MD do (can be family doctors, pediatricians, OBGYNs, Cardiologist, Neurologist, etc.) PTs are more specialized in the literal "physical" therapy aspect than medicine itself. Also PTs have time to really focusing on developing muscle strength through longer exercises than OMT in an office may allow. Though Osteopaths who make their focus on solely OMT will have more time to devote to that as well. (Most DOs end up becoming clinical doctors or hospital doctors, performing OMT as time allows in their medical practice) As to chiropractics, indeed in OMT we do learn a few "popping" and "cracking" techniques that you may associate with chiropractics. We call these "HVLA" (High Velocity, Low Amplitude techniques), if you want to look it up. With these techniques we can get good articulation and cracking of the spine, neck, and some other joints. However, of course Chiropractors can develop those skills a bit more and spend their entire day on this. As to wear and tear on the body, when we learn how to do different techniques, there is lots of enforcement given to proper positioning of both the doctor and the patient during the technique. In the same way that physical therapists and chiropractors would have to be conscious of the best way to lift a very large leg and be able to hold it there for a while, or to have good posture when bending or lifting a patient. Many techniques can take a certain amount of strength, but usually both the physician and the patient should be positioned in a way that minimizes the effort required.

Heal-Thy Life Chiropractic originated from Osteooathic manual manipulation. That's where Palmer, one of the founders of Chiropractic, got it from! He took that portion of it, had a great business model and marketing plan, and ran with it. Chiropractic, physical therapy, myofascial therapy, cranio-sacral therapy, ALL ORIGINATED FROM Osteopathic medicine. That's just history. Yes! As a practitioner for 2 decades, the wear and tear on your hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, neck and spine, hips and especially the lumbar region are absolutely affected by wears and tear. In addition, your emotional well-being as well as your mental health are also affected. If you are an aspiring healthcare practitioner who truly embraces the field and material, then your entire life should be representative of optimum health. Physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Healthy foods, stretching and exercise to maintain your body; supplements and plenty of rest and recovery to avoid burn out and compassion fatigue; meditation and psycho - spiritual lifestyle will assist in maintaining your mind and soul. As you can see presently during the coronovirus of 2020, healthcare practitioners are the most taxed under extraordinary conditions and the only thing that is keeping them going are: 1. Good genetic make-up (hardy) 2. A previous lifestyle that was described 3. Maintaining this protocol for as long as possible You must "walk the walk" and you'll be absolutely fine. (I am speaking from personal experience.) This is a 5'5" 125lb, petite woman working with pro athletes (ex. 6'4" soccer players from Jamacia) and many more. Good luck 🙏

Hey there! Good seeing you here. 🙂 I was looking at applying to DO school YEARS ago. I kind of wish I had. As a PA, there's not much I can do for my patients' back pain other than prescribing meds (opioids too😔), referrals to pain management and Ortho. We're going to have a whole population of older folks hooked on pain meds, the way medicine is headed. However, I think DO has an efficacious treatment for this. I hope you went to DO school. Take care!👋🏽👨🏽‍⚕️

[@utingwone6871]

Wow !! 😎😎😎😎😎

[@emancoy]

What's the difference between this and chiropractors?

[@abbeybeall5460]

This is stretching and massaging, chirps pop joints and can paralyze you because they aren’t real doctors.

[@The_Kirk_Lazarus]

More than you could imagine. 😉

[@ashleynunes9662]

If anybody wants a copy of Osteopath Weekly I have back issues.
