Medicine’s Rebel Child - Osteopathy through the ages

What's This Podcast
About?

The history of medicine is written by the victors, but the story of osteopathy is found in the margins. Join us as we peel back the layers of a profession often dismissed, misunderstood, or mislabeled by the medical establishment. From its radical origins on the American frontier to its struggle for legal legitimacy, this podcast explores the tension between Andrew Taylor Still’s holistic vision and the rigid biomedical model that sought to contain it. We dive into the lost philosophy, the eccentric metaphors, and the "sanitized" history of a practice that has always insisted: there is more to health than the absence of disease.
