"Integrating Osteopathic Tenets in evidence-informed, Person-Centered and Culturally Sensitive care"

Course #02, past-PRESENT-future | Integrative Care: Neuroscience, Culture, and Placebo | 3 hours

Evidence-informed, person-centered, and culturally sensitive approaches?

· The Body-Mind-Spirit osteopathic tenet has been reintroduced to guide patient care in the latest update of osteopathic principles in the United States (Rogers et al., 2002). However, it requires a better definition for optimal use that can align with the values and expectations of patients within a person-centered Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) approach.

· Discover our exclusive series of three online courses, "Past-Present-Future", designed to enhance your osteopathic practice. This program highlights how this fundamental tenet supports person-centered, culturally sensitive EBP approaches. It will help you refine your clinical reasoning and master the specific professional skills valued by your patients.

· Our program is designed for professionals seeking to promote patient-centered, culturally sensitive, and evidence-based clinical approaches. We introduce the Cynefin framework to address the diversity and complexity of osteopathic techniques, optimizing their application across various clinical contexts.

Let’s dive deep into the legacy of Dr A.T. Still, MD, DO in current evidence-informed whole person healthcare!

Learning objectives

Upon completing our program titled "Integrating Osteopathic Tenets in Evidence-Informed, Person-Centered, and Culturally Sensitive Care," you will have the skills and knowledge to:

🎯 Integrate neuroscientific insights into osteopathic techniques, emphasizing body awareness and the modulation of multisensory integration (e.g., interoception, proprioception), to enhance therapeutic outcomes in manual medicine.

🎯 Apply the Cynefin framework to clinical decision-making, improving the ability to navigate complexity and uncertainty in patient-centered osteopathic care.

🎯 Adapt osteopathic interventions to align with diverse cultural health beliefs, fostering epistemological flexibility and enhancing therapeutic efficacy across sociocultural contexts.
