This study evaluated the effectiveness of osteopathic sympathetic harmonization on the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in youth with major depressive disorder. Their conclusion found that after the application of osteopathic sympathetic harmonization, sympathetic nervous system activity may decrease while hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis may increase.

📣The A.T. Still Research Institute (ATSRI) and DO-Touch.NET are hosting booths at the AAO Convocation this week. 💡Stop by booths 407 and 405 by to check out current research in OMM!🤝

Dr. Still, the founder of osteopathy, highlights the role of osteopathy as a complementary approach to medical care rather than a substitute. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing that osteopathy works in harmony with traditional medicine rather than aiming to replace it. Osteopathy focuses on the body's natural ability to heal itself and seeks to enhance this process through manual techniques and a holistic understanding of the patient's condition. By acknowledging the value of both osteopathy and conventional medical care, individuals can benefit from the synergistic effects of these two approaches, resulting in a more comprehensive and effective treatment plan.
