Osteopathic Foundations, 6
Elizabeth Caron, D.O.
Announcing a new series of biodynamically inspired work called Osteopathic Foundations with related undergraduate OsteoBasic courses.
Osteopathic Foundations will be a series of 10 courses designed to take the practitioner through Osteopathic principles: biodynamic, biokinetic, the work of Rollin Becker, and motion via stillness. This series is designed for reviewing basic Osteopathic principles, at all levels, and incorporate them into everyday hands on practice. This form of traditional Osteopathy will include detailed study of anatomy and embryology from the work of Drs Eric Blechschmidt and A.T. Still. Students will come understand that embryologic movements are the healing forces for growth and development throughout life and how the Ocean and Tide help incarnate this process.
Dr. Caron was directly mentored by Dr. James Jealous for the last 25 years of his life. She also has been mentored by one of Dr. Rollin Becker’s principle students, Jacque Duval, D.O. In addition she studied with Ann Wales D.O., and extensively with Dr. Hugh Ettinger a longtime student of Dr. Wales. These are all direct lineages from Dr. William G. Sutherland.
Furthermore, Dr. Caron will incorporate her extensive background with movement into the series which comes from her years as a professional modern dancer and a student of multiple movement techniques including Klein, Alexander, Feldenkrais, and Pilates. These concepts will be incorporated to help support the changes made with Osteopathic treatments. Previous movement / compensatory patterns can shift and Osteopathic treatments incarnate into our daily motion and being.
This is original work- incorporating biodynamic, biokinetic, traditional Osteopathy, and movement, brings into light the true self unhindered…the emergence of originality.
CME: Anticipated 20 hours of Category 1A CME Credits and OMM/NMM Specialty Credits anticipated.

Course Description:
The embryologic development of the limbs is the force for growth and development and as well as the forces for healing throughout life. Osteopathic principles from Rollin Becker and Jacque Duval, D.O.s will be explored and we will “dig on” to reexamine basic Osteopathic principles such as the somato-somato and somato-visceral reflexes and their spinal levels for facilitation. Detailed slides of the embryologic development of the bones and fluid fields with their seams will be presented. This embryological formation will be explored and will guide us in treatment of the extremities.
Exploration of power points and the Stillness in the bones and fluid fields and their center points will be studied as well as treatment of the extremities after severe injury. In addition, assessment and treatment of how do we deal with tissues that have lost their orientation and have a lack of response to the therapeutic process. Practical applications will be given and carefully defining what is a lesioned electrical field in the bone and/ or extremity (RTP) will be studied. In addition, we will begin to step into the Health and how the perfect and imperfect relate to each other.
We will have the opportunity to participated in movement of the joints in the extremities will be done. How compensatory patterns in the arms and legs can affect the neck and back will be addressed. Detailed discussion of normal movement of the extremities will be presented so that learned movement patterns do not return and reinjure the area post treatment.
This is a small, intimate class. Max. participants 18.
