Shotgun Techniques: OMT Without a Table

In this session, participants will have the opportunity to try out techniques to treat the axial skeleton that can be done from either a seated or standing position, and do not require extensive time making a segmental diagnosis beforehand. These techniques may be used in any situation, but are ideal for cases where time or environment are not conducive to traditional treatment.

Objectives:

• Perform osteopathic techniques from a seated or standing position for the axial skeleton
• Identify relevant indications and contraindications for these osteopathic techniques
• Compare and contrast shotgun techniques with traditional techniques for the axial skeleton.
