What is difference between Osteopathic and western medicine?

Answer 1

Well, the naturopath is not a real medical doctor. It likes to prescribe herbal medications. The U.S. trained osteopathic physician, rather, is a real medical doctor. The DO would do better for itself if it were to change its name from DO to MD or MD,DO. The dumb dogmatic DOs in the AOA don't want this change from DO to MD,DO.

An example of how dumb and banal the public is about DOs: former Gov Arnold Schwarzenegger of California, wanted to merge the ND (naturopathic doctor) and DO (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine) together. I used to like the Terminator (Schwarzenegger), but not anymore. What a dumb thing this old governor did? Schwarzenegger is so naive and stupid that he did this. Combing an ND to a DO is just like combining an ND to an MD. Clearly, NDs did not go to Medical School. Time for the lame dumb AOA old dumb cracked wrinkled doctor board members to change the DO degree to MD,DO.

Answer 2

Osteopathic medicine focuses on a whole-body approach to health, with an emphasis on the musculoskeletal system and the body's ability to heal itself. Osteopathic physicians (DOs) are trained in osteopathic manipulative treatment, a hands-on technique used to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness or injury. Western medicine, on the other hand, includes various medical approaches, such as allopathic medicine, that focus on treating symptoms and diseases using medications, surgery, and other conventional methods.

Answer 3

Osteopathy is western medicine, developed in the US.
