There has long been a need among students and practitioners for a manual of movements used in Osteopathic practice. This work in no way supplies the places of practice of medicine, but it does include in a complete and yet concise manner all that is peculiarly osteopathic in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. The manipulations are those which the author has tried and knows to be effective; no experimental movements are given. The book is not intended for the general public, but it supplies a particular niche in the practice of Osteopathy. These treatments were learned from four sources, viz: The American School of Osteopathy, Kirksville, Mo.; the Still College of Osteopathy, Des Moines, Iowa; the practitioners in the field; and, from actual experience in practice.
