"Osteo-Italia" is a course scheduled from 9th to 13th of July 2018 and designed for international osteopaths to take stock of the most current osteopathic research areas in Italy.
The topics will range from the PNEI (psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology) to stress, from the connective tissue as a mediator of the relationship between form and function to the clinical application of the lines of force of John Martin Littlejohn and up to the mirror neurons and osteopathy as ground medicine.
