In this session, participants will explore the reasons behind why so many graduating residents and practicing DOs in the US are not incorporating OMM into their daily practice. By examining AT Still's historical approach to teaching OMM and discussing how it can be relevant in today's medical landscape, attendees will gain insight into potential barriers and opportunities for integrating OMM into modern practice. Additionally, this session will propose a new paradigm for teaching family OMM medicine residents, offering practical strategies for implementing OMM techniques in a time-efficient manner.
