SEMINARS

Understanding trauma is essential for every osteopathic practitioner. Many patients who fail to improve after treatment are found to have past

unresolved trauma. Focusing on such unresolved trauma can significantly increase clinical success. Many life experiences can result in trauma,

including birth, accidents, injuries, violence, medical procedures, and psychological shock. Recent advances in our understanding of the physiological

changes inherent in trauma can dramatically change the way we understand and treat the traumatized person. Drawing from contemporary sources,

this course will review the fundamental physiology of trauma—including the startle response, “freeze reaction,” breathing mechanics, emotional

anchors, sympathetic nervous system, body mapping, oculomotor involvement, and trauma recovery reactions. Methods of treatment covered in this

seminar will include, among others, sympathetic balancing, oculomotor activation, reflex locomotion with positional release, and aspects of breathing

mechanics. Seminar participants will leave with an excellent foundational understanding of trauma and its treatment from an osteopathic perspective.

Part One: Developmental Patterns in a Cranio-Vertebro-Sacral Field: the Skull The skull appears to be a complex structure containing a large number of specific individual anatomic elements. When studying the anatomy of the skull, it becomes obvious that it should not be viewed as an isolated structure, but rather as one in continuity with the spine, as well as other associated body parts. The nature of the individual elements of the skull, and the continuity of these elements, becomes obvious when examining the skull’s developmental patterns. The same types of developmental metabolic fields are responsible for both the skull and the spine. Who says there is anything about flexion/extension of the sphenobasilar synchondrosis?

Part Two: Developmental Patterns in a Visceral Field: the Abdominal DiaphragmAlthough it has nothing to do with breathing, the development of the abdominal diaphragm is one of the most important embryological events that take place. It is intimately related to the development of the nervous system and its surrounding, associated tissues, and it indicates the beginning of visceral development. This process, however, cannot be understood without the knowledge of developmental patterns displayed by the vascular structures. Blood vessels are important restraining apparatuses, providing specific directions to further development. If we don’t know exactly what to do in a treatment session, wouldn’t it be better not to push on the fourth ventricle, but instead to palpate the direction of a diaphragmatic pattern?

Part Three: Developmental Patterns in a Locomotoric Field: the LimbsThe primordium of the limbs appears as one of the last structures during human development—not necessarily because it is a repetition of phylogeny (Haeckel was wrong, you know), but rather because it is a result of growth patterns of different origin than the other structures. Studying the form of the limbs as a continuation of developmental patterns reveals the relationship of the limbs to specific anatomical regions of the head and trunk-neuronal as well as visceral. The muscle chains of the limbs are much more than just a biomechanical continuity of arthrokinematic relations. Can we untwist a sprained colon by squeezing an ankle, or is it vice versa?

If there is spirituality in osteopathy, how does it play out in everyday practice? First came the historical divergence of the healing tradition into

mechanistic and holistic branches— the latter producing the axiom of body, mind, and spirit, which culminated in the osteopathy of Dr. Still’s “triune

man.” Next came the application of science to this metaphysical idea. So if there is spirituality in osteopathy, there must be some understandable

mechanism for the interaction of spirit and nature, of soul and body. How do Still and others explain this? How can we explain it to ourselves—not

merely as an abstraction, but as a practical model to guide the treatment of our patients?

LECTURERS

.Angela Haines-Wangda, MSc Rehab, D.O.M.P. received her BSc in Physical Therapy at McGill University in 1979. In 1982, she took her first osteopathic courses, with Fred Mitchell, DO, and Loren Rex, DO, in Toronto. She has since owned two private practices in Vancouver. In 1987, a contract to teach physiotherapy at Tribhuvan University in Kathmandu and an interest in Tibetan Buddhism drew Angela to Nepal. During her five-year stay there, she ran the physiotherapy department at the Hospital for Disabled Children. After her return to Canada in 1991, she earned an MSc in rehabilitation at Queens University, with a thesis examining attitudes and beliefs toward disability in Nepal from the perspective of the visually impaired. Angela then followed the osteopathic program in Toronto at the Canadian College of Osteopathy, graduating in 2009. She received the Andrew Still, D.O. Thesis Award for her thesis, “Tom Dummer: His Contribution to Osteopathy Through Body, Speech and Mind.” Today, Angela treats a cross-section of clients at a hospital and at a private clinic in Ottawa, and she still finds time to volunteer and teach abroad.

Jean-Paul Höppner, DO started studying anatomy and embryology in 1982. As a native-speaking German, he has full access to the contents of Professor E. Blechschmidt’s literature, which he has carefully studied since 1985. As an osteopath familiar with the concepts of form and function, he is able to describe anatomy through pictures, which come alive through the explanation and application of Blechschmidt’s metabolic fields. From 1987 to 1996, Jean-Paul was an assistant at the Department of Experimental Anatomy at Vrije Universiteit Brussel in Belgium, and since 1993 he has organized dissection seminars for osteopaths at the University of Heidelberg. From 1994 to 2000, he taught anatomy, embryology, and clinical practice in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany. Since 2003, Jean-Paul has taught postgraduate seminars under the titles “Anatomy & Ontogenesis of the Human within the Osteopathic Field” and “Morphogenic Fields as a Basis within Diagnosis and Treatment” in Europe.

Theodore Jordan, DO, SPOMM graduated from Ohio State University in 1987 with a degree in psychology and a strong interest in natural healing methods. He graduated from the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1992 with a one-year undergraduate fellowship in osteopathic manipulative medicine. He then completed a residency in family practice and worked at several family practice clinics for 13 years. He also taught osteopathic principles and practice to students and residents at Doctors Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, for more than 20 years. Theodore has received several teaching awards, as well as the Burroughs Wellcome Fellowship. Long interested in osteopathic history, he has published several papers in the Journal of the American Academy of Osteopathy and the International Journal of Osteopathic Medicine. He has extensively researched the life and works of Carl Philip McConnell, DO, publishing “Selective Writings of Carl Philip McConnell” in 1994. He currently operates a private practice in Hilliard, Ohio, and works part-time at the Ohio State University Center of Integrative Medicine.

Reuben P. Bell, DO, MS, MDiv earned a BSc and MSc in zoology from the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma and graduated from Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. After an internship and residency in Portland, Maine, he became board-certified in osteopathic family practice. Following 10 years in general practice in rural Maine, he moved to Pennsylvania to attend the seminary in an effort to better understand the interaction of body, mind, and spirit. While there, he was an associate professor of biology at the Bryn Athyn College. After earning a master of divinity degree, Reuben was ordained by the Church of the New Jerusalem (Swedenborgian). Returning to Maine, he became an associate professor of family medicine and the director of medical humanities at the University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine (UNECOM), where he was also adjunct associate professor in the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies. Still with UNECOM, he then practiced geriatric medicine, with a focus on end-of-life care. Reuben integrates a lifetime of learning into the holistic practice of finding health.
