Locating the Obstruction.

These misadjustments and contrac
tions are sometimes quite pronounc-
ed, as in the case of a spinal curva-
ture; but more usually they are not
in themselves very noticeable and
can be detected only by the eye and
hand of one especially skilled in this
work. So that considerable part
of the usefulness of the Osteopath
lies in his ability to locate these
mechanical distractions to rec
ognize them as the real causes Of
the malady.
He knows that they are the causes
not only because he has been
taught SO during his long course in
an Osteopathic college, but because
he has himself conquered disease of
almost every character by restoring
perfect structural adjustments. He
is not experimenting or working
blindly, but is proceeding along a
course that Is made plain to him by
acquired experience.-Right Way.
