Dr. Andrew Taylor Still began the first known practice of osteopathy. Never heard of Dr. Andrew Taylor Still? From Wikipedia:
"Still was born in Lee County, Virginia in 1828, the son of a Methodist minister and physician. At an early age, Still decided to follow in his father’s footsteps as a physician. After studying medicine and serving an apprenticeship under his father, Still became a licensed MD in the state of Missouri. Later, in the early 1860s, he completed additional coursework at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Kansas City, Missouri. He went on to serve as a surgeon in the Union Army during the American Civil War.
After the Civil War and following the death of three of his children from spinal meningitis in 1864, Still concluded that the orthodox medical practices of his day were frequently ineffective and sometimes harmful. He devoted the next ten years of his life to studying the human body and finding better ways to treat disease."
Through Still’s research and observations in his clinic, he believed that by correcting problems in the body’s structure, through the use of manual techniques now known as osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM), the body’s ability to function and to heal itself could be greatly improved.
He also promoted the idea of preventive medicine and endorsed the philosophy that physicians should focus on treating the whole patient, rather than just the disease.
Preventive… kind of goes hand in hand with being proactive. In other words, in order to prevent something from happening, there has to be some form of proactive behavior and actions.
Are you walking the path you were meant to walk on this earth? Are you being completely proactive in your quest for a better body? Or simply in your quest to lose weight quick?
Are you expecting a different outcome in life? Do you keep doing the same things today, last week, the week before that, and the coming week, that got you to where you are today?
If you DO want a change then DO something different, anything. Experiment, change it up, research how to eat better to lose weight quick. Follow someone that has been there and has already gone through the school of hard knocks already. Whatever it is you do, DO IT DIFFERENTLY! That is if you want to change, and especially if you want to lose weight quick!
