Osteopathic practice is equally adapted TO both

the heart is double pump driving the blood

necessarily derange the entire system.
THE BRAIN.
The brain is a dynamo which generates ana

but their motive power. Thus It will be under

WHAT OsTEOPATHY HAS DONE.
The simplest way Of explaining the action OF
OSTEOPATHY is by citing some OF the things
we have done with IL, as follows:
ASTHMA-The lungs supplied with force By
the pneumogastric nerves. the diaphragm by the

WHAT OSTEOPATHY WILL DO.
This is the principle OF osteopathy:
The Osteopath studies every nerve. muscle. bone
