In this episode, Drs. James and Dante revisit the birthplace of osteopathy: the American frontier. Once again we learn about Andrew Taylor Still and how his history of being an outsider led him to develop this uniquely American method of practicing medicine. From being labeled a heretic – which forced him to heal others in the dead of night – to working with the feared Shawnee Nation, listen to the story of this lesser- known mode of treatment and how it started with the belief that our bodies were made with the tools to heal themselves.
