NEW OSTEOPATHIC RESEARCH CONCERNING THE MOBILITY OF THE HEART
 

 

 

 

HaMo-study II: effects of sternotomy on the mobility of the heart under the influence of respiration

We are very proud to present you the second study concerning the mobility of the heart under influence of breathing by our colleague Gert Roncada.
For those who didn't have the opportunity the read about the first study we included an abstract as well.


OSTEOPATHY AND OBSTRUCTIVE APNEA IN INFANTS
 

 

Osteopathy may decrease obstructive apnea in infants: a pilot study is a research study carried out at the university hospital of Brussels and published online in Osteopathic Medicine and Primary Care (OMPC) . In this study is stated that osteopathy may have a positive influence on the incidence of obstructive apneas during sleep in infants with a previous history of obstructive apneas as measured by polysomnography.

Co-author of this study is Agnes Engelen, President of CORPP.



OSTEOPATHY AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH
 
It is necessary that osteopathic medicine makes its scientific research in a systematic way. Within the professional group some members are averse to a scientific approach of osteopathic medicine. They are convinced  that people can’t be approached in a scientific way and they reject the mechanistic way of thinking.
