The Origin and Story of Osteopathy

Osteopathy was founded in 1874 by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, a physician from Missouri, USA. Dissatisfied with the conventional medical practices of his time, Dr. Still sought to develop a holistic approach to healing that focused on the body's innate ability to self-regulate and heal.

Drawing inspiration from various healing traditions, including Native American medicine and manual therapy techniques, Dr. Still formulated the principles of osteopathy and established the first school of osteopathic medicine in Kirksville, Missouri.
