Episode 25 - The Curious Case of the Cooper with the Infected Knee And the Extraordinary Dr Andrew Taylor Still

How we care for ourselves, or how we ignore our wellbeing, influences the way we care for others. How can we encourage and teach our patients to care for themselves if we don’t do that for ourselves? How do we model self-care to the young Osteopathic students that we teach? In this episode, we take a dive into exploring the possibilities of why and how as Osteopath we might want to seriously consider choosing to be cared for by one of our colleagues. ~~~  We’ve created several foundational episodes, which are free and are available anywhere you get your podcasts.

In this episode we explore The Four Tenets of Osteopathic Medicine and ask if they are truly distinctive to Osteopathy, or are merely good foundational principles for anyone in healthcare.

This episode presents a new concept that Bonnie adapted from her Continuum practice, The Four Anatomies of Osteopathic Perception: personal, cultural, biological and cosmic. Developing awareness of these viewpoints can enrich Osteopathic perception as well as clinical diagnosis and treatment.

This episode is part of our Origin Story series. This is an important case history that documents how Still worked clinically in the early days (1880s) while he was developing the healthcare system he later named Osteopathy.
