American Osteopathic Association (AOA)

Developed more than 130 years ago by Andrew Taylor Still, M.D., D.O., osteopathic medicine is one of the fastest growing health care professions in the United States and brings a unique philosophy to traditional medicine. With a strong emphasis on the inter-relationship of the body's nerves, muscles, bones and organs, doctors of osteopathic medicine, or D.O.s, apply the philosophy of treating the whole person to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of illness, disease and injury.
