Formerly the editor of representative
medical journals pooh-poohed Osteopathy
and everything pertaining to it. That, of
course, was done through policy, as they
naturally sought to make themselves
popular by making their readers feelgood
and what -would be calculated to make
the majority of those who believe in one
system and practice it feet so good all
the time as the assurance that another
system with tenets directly antagonistic
was not making headway and was pro
per abject of ridicule! But Osteopathy
has traveled right ahead i.i th confidence
of the people for fifteen year, and it is
now true that representative medical
papers of the land month after month
are telling their readers that the whole
profession and even ils colleges are be
hind the times in important respects, and
that while they continue to ignore osteo
pathic principle in everyday practice the
Osteopaths are supplying the need and
forging ahead of them.
We as a profession, of course, are en
titled to feel much pleasure at this change
of sentiment, and it is only fair to us that
these acknowledgments of osteopathic
success should be made publicly. This
recent editorial utterance in American
Medicine, one of the foremost weekly
publications of the "regular" school.
edited by the venerable Dr. George M
Gould, who i probably the best authority
in medical journalism today, is to the
point and as frank a it is convincing
;''"-'"-l5acfcache"'-"'
We art glad to see in the Monthly
Bulletin of the Indiana State Board of
Health, an article on "backache," because
this and many similar subjects greatly
need ventilation. Dr. Hessler thinks
backache especially needs pur air, be
cause he contends that nine-tenths of
the cases in which the sympton occur
are due to. infected dust. To this theory
of the etiology we, of course, must dis
agree. .
'The Osteopath is reaping a harvest
because the 'regular has been culpably
neglected of the need of examination of
the backs of his patients. Thousands of
patients if not millions are today suf
fering from malformed, ill-shaped backs,
and curved spine, and are treated for
every ailment to be thought of, - while
neither practitioner nor patient has the
least idea of the true cause of the symp
toms, and the back is never examined"
(Just what we Osteopaths 'have been
long saying!)
"These backs often present the aston
ishing picture and record of suffering ex
tending over year of lifetime.' One
shoulder-blade may be higher than the
other; certain muscles are knotted and
hard and bulging; certain others, soft or
atrophic;' the spine of certain vertebrae
may protrude in a noteworthy prominence
others may seem to be wholly absorbed
and the vertebral column may show all
sorts of curves and abnormalisms. ' A
certain proportion of the lateral curvatur
es are due to a peculiar axis of astig
matism which compelled life-long head
tilting with compensatory spinal curva
ture. '.-.'.'
"It 1 when these trouble are begin
ning and still functional that the . wise
ohvsician's interference is needed. But
what medical college teaches the art and
science of examination of the back? Who
thinks of itr - '
W congratulate the medical press
upon this more sensible and noble policy
of aiding medical practitioners to right
themselves and get abreast of the times,
rather than pursue their old practices-
which are . admittedly so often futile.
Progress in the alleviation of human
suffering should be hailed with acclaim
and be given - ready acceptance by all
schools alike, no matter what system
deserves credit for the discovery.
