February

I have developed a unique manipulative approach to cranial care. The Cranial Academy, invited me to teach a 3 day course for their membership. The course was well received according to the course evaluations.

​

March

During the American Academy of Osteopathy Convocation, I was asked to make three contributions:

During the first presentation I discussed the unique research I am conducting with associates in Eugene, OR.  Many attending got really excited about our unique approach and data demonstrating immediate Ground Reactive Force changes once sequenced OMT was utilized.

​

During the second presentation I discussed a Complex Adaptive Systems explanation for understanding our research data.

​

My 3 day presentation was a workshop discussing and demonstrating a unique Gait diagnosis and treatment approach I have developed and was utilized during our Osteopathic research treatment sessions.  This was well received and the Academy invited me to develop a 3 day course on my unique gait approach.  The course will be presented in July 2016.

 

July

The American Academy of Osteopathy invited me to repeat the 3 day Cranial course I did in February for the Cranial Academy; the course evaluations were very positive.

The book is being organized by a group of excellent German MD’s who are very skilled and effective manual  practitioners based on Osteopathic Principles. They are using my unique OPP approach of starting your OMT at the Key Lesion/Area of Greatest Restriction and sequencing as a major focus of the book which will be comparable to the Foundation of Osteopathic Medicine published by the AOA.
