#osteopathy
Art of healing, founded 100yrs ago by Andrew Taylor Still. He established principles that all pharmaceutical agents required for maintenance of health are manufactured within the human body & are released by manipulation of bones & joints (particularly the spine). The manipulation can be vigorous (particularly 'high velocity thrust'). 


Osteopathy is respected by many doctors as a potential cure for back pain & unexplained {muscle} or {joint} problems. In the USA, osteopaths undergo extensive & lengthy training (up to 7yrs) & many practise in special hospitals.
