Module 2 Flashcards
Who wrote the first book of Osteopathy “Osteopathy: The New Science of Healing (1896)”
Elmer De Vergne Barber
Elmer De Vergne Barber Wrote what?
First book of Osteopathy “Osteopathy: The New Science of Healing (1896)”
Riggs 1901 (Osteopathic Centers) What were the goals/ trends in explaining the Osteopathic goals during this time?
Science of Healing –> definite and fixed relation between an organ and the CNS.
Roughly a longitudinal arrangement of splanchnic contribution
Why was Edyth Ashmore important?
Talked about Osteopathic Mechanics , and correction of lesions (First kinda talking about this)
What did Edyth Ashmore say about a lesion?
lesion is a lack of motion and is what causes injury to the tissues; what causes chronic wear and tear on the tissues is a lesion/ lesion pattern.
The inefficiencies that result from compensation; where down the chain is this being impacted.
Why does a The secondary lesion exists ?
To restore balance of the primary lesion (Counterbalance)
What are the 2 things that assist in the Diagnosis of the 2nd ary lesion?
Appearance when at rest of a lesion to the opposite side
Presence of unrestricted motion in the joint when it is palpated.
In Robert Lovett: “Lateral curvature of the spine and Round shoulders” 1907 said what about the number of movements in the spine?
The movements of the spine are 3 in number:
1) Flexion
2) Extension
3) Compound movement (Side bending-rotation)
Robert Lovett said what about 4 movements?
The ideas the 4 movements (Flexion, extension, rotation, and side bending) is incorrect
Neither side bending or rotation exist in a pure form
(Side bending and rotation occur to the same side)
According to Robert Lovett FULL flexion does what?
we get a contralateral side bend / rotation.
Edyth Ashmore described a lesion how? and Why?
The lesion is named for the restriction of motion (NOT THE PREFERENCE) —> Because she likes Direct treatment
Fryette Presented his findings in 1918, and not until what did he get recognized?
C.R Nelson –> When motion is introduced in one plane it will modify (Reduce) motion in the other two (1948)
What were earlier osteo’s looking for?
Centers
What was the basis behind Fielder’s Law?
Treatment of Sensitive areas will affect disease; Treatments applied to sensitive areas near the spine are more effective than more distant points
How did Fielder’s Law become alopathic?
treating by rule and not by reason** It looks at the local and doesn’t look at the distal
In Edyth Ashmore’s book, what was something that was missing that Older Osteo’s were looking at ?
The Osteo Centers
According to Edyth Ashmore what did the lesion do?
The lesion is causing the injury. Its small but overtime it compounds into something bigger.
According to Robert Lovett when do we get a contralateral side bend / rotation
Only in FULL flexion that we get
How did Edyth Ashmore Name the lesion?
The restriction of motion (NOT THE PREFERENCE)
Why did Edyth Ashmore Name the lesion the way she did?
Direct Treatment, (named it based on the restriction)
Why were Fryett and Lovett different in thinking?
Lovett Didn’t acknowledge the different structure/ vertebra shapes and sizes in the spine that we get different mechanics at different areas.
How many movements did Lovett think the spine could do compared to Fryett?
Lovett 3 Fryett 4
When Fryett began to get acknowledge who helped him?
Nelson
What is Nelson’s Law?
When motion is introduced in one plane it will modify (Reduce) motion in the other two
It is the lesion that manifests –> to get the The cause and effects.
pathological effects/ compensation
Edyth Ashmore Wrote what and when?
(1915) Osteopathic Mechanics
Why was Edyth Ashmore important
(1915) Osteopathic Mechanics book first talked about corrections of lesions; and the mechanics
