More than 400 participants celebrated the jubilee congress titled “We are Osteopathy”.

On the second day of the event, Dr. Brian Degenhardt, Director of DO-Touch.NET, addressed the congress with the opening lecture, “Osteopathische Grundlagenforschung des A.T. Still Research Institutes”. The A.T. Still Research Institute was also able to showcase their digital camera measurement system and advanced palpatory models which are used during Advancing Skills in Osteopathy Courses. We also enjoyed visiting with our many DO-Touch.NET members at the congress booth!!! Thank you to our members for spending a few moments with us and to the VOD for making our stay in Germany so warm and welcoming.
DO-Touch.NET, A.T. Still Research Institute, and the Research Support Department faculty and staff hosted an Advancing Skills in Osteopathy Course the week of August 26, 2019. We were honored to share our knowledge, skills, and state of the art technology with our participating group of Brazilian Osteopaths! In our newly renovated lab, participants received the most scientifically advanced training in palpation worldwide by engaging in evidence-based presentations on the neurobiology of palpation, and utilizing objective feedback to refine and standardize their fundamental palpation skills.
