The Principles of Osteopathy are, in fact, postulates for mechanical causality in human health:
1. The human being is a dynamic unit of function, wherein ... and ... are interrelated at all levels, within the context of gravitation. 2. The body possesses ... mechanisms that are self-healing in nature, and which regulate postural balance. 3. Where ... is sub-optimal, these self-regulatory mechanisms are mechanically constrained, which constraint chronically can result in mechanically mediated disease/disorder/dysfunctions. |

The Principles of Osteopathy are, in fact, postulates for mechanical causality in human health:
4. Posture is mediated by three central boundaries of posture within which all structures function: 1) The ..., central to the opposite and equal vectors of weight bearing and ground support. 2) The ..., the approximate geometric center of the outstretched musculoskeletal frame. 3) The ..., within which resides the postural control system that interacts with the feet and sacral base to regulate posture. |
