The National University of Medical Sciences (NUMSS) in Spain is a leading and affordable provider of osteopathic education, offering 33 health-related degree programs globally. The document discusses the 'still techniques,' developed by osteopathy founder Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, which are gaining renewed popularity in osteopathic training despite having been overlooked for simpler methods. These techniques focus on relaxing soft tissues and realigning joints, and are now part of the curriculum in several osteopathy schools, including NUMSS.

3. Still Techniques: The Forgotten Osteopathic
Techniques
Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, MD, DO (founder of
osteopathy) developed many methods of treatments.

4. In one such method (commonly known as the Still
Techniques) the patient is initially moved away from
the dysfunctional barrier, then a well-directed
focusing force is applied, during which the
dysfunctional joint is carried through a path of least
resistance into the barrier.

5. Osteopathic
Techniques - NUMSS
The Still technique loosens
the ligaments and tendons
binding a joint by first
moving away from the
barrier into relaxation, and
then reverses direction to
allow the joint to slide back
into place while the
supporting ligaments and
tendons are relaxed

6. The Still techniques never gained popularity with
early osteopaths because easier and quicker
osteopathic manual therapy techniques were
available to osteopaths.
Still techniques, the ground breaking methods of
relaxing the soft tissue and then settling the joint
were somewhat forgotten until Dr. Richard
VanBuskirk, DO published “The Still Technique
Manual” in 2000.

7. NUMSS - Osteopathic Manual Therapy
Now these techniques have
regained the popularity they
deserve as a number of schools
including National Academy of
Osteopathy (Canada), National
University of Medical Sciences
(Spain) and National University of
Medical Sciences (USA) have
added them to the curriculum of
their manual osteopathy diploma
and degree programs.
