As in, osteopathic medical treatment. Which, believe it or not, physicians are licensed to perform. In this country. If I remember correctly, this one is to determine whether the psoas muscle is eliciting pain as opposed to visceral pain.<br /><br />Incidentally, during the nearly two years that I attended osteopathic medical school, we had weekly labs during which we had to perform such procedures on one another. When they didn't look like this, they nearly always involved me (or the "practitioner") having to stick my boobs in my classmate's ("the patient") face. I once asked my physician (who happens to be a D.O.) about said awkwardness, and he explained that how one practices osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) outside of medical school is different than how you *have* to practice it for board exams. Hence having to put yourself in as many awkward positions as possible with your patient. I swear, one might have better luck learning OMM for the boards by studying the Kama Sutra....<br /><br />Just FYI, of course. ;-)student dr. blazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17307156914515136574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-46748759902801310962009-10-22T16:45:58.749-04:002009-10-22T16:45:58.749-04:00I do admit, it does look odd at first.

No rubber gloves, nor disposable examining table cover, a black 'clinical' jacket. <br /><br />Looks, like the patient told the doc on the elevator ride up to the office that he/she had heard a 'posterior ilium glide test was the latest thing, it'd take just a minute, and could he perform, umm, administer, it in 2 minutes..' or maybe they just got off the tennis court, and someone said something about Long Island Tea or something cold, and then someone's spouse said, "Hrmmph', and then someone else said, 'Well, let's just take a look, hmm, may be just a hunch, but let's see about that posterior ilium glide', and found that he was doing some research for an anecdotal report for American Neurology Association, hence the actual unrehearsed photo with no trace of identifying features, but usually don't see these kind of photos in American Pharm Science, JAMA, Burns, SCCM, or even Drug Topics, so wouldn't know if neurologists routinely see these kind of diagnostic procedures in their practice.<br /><br />I've only done the 'close your eyes and touch your nose' and 'try to walk in a straight line'.
