In a two-part course series on psychosomatic osteopathy with Torsten Liem, effective practical approaches to the treatment of complex complaints and dysfunctional soma-physiological-experiential context patterns in the clinical-osteopathic setting are taught.

The main aim of this two-part course series is to teach integral, practice-relevant diagnostic and treatment approaches and new perspectives in the clinical application of osteopathy. On the one hand, advanced approaches and techniques for osteopathy are offered, which expand the clinical framework and the “toolbox” of the practicing osteopath. On the other hand, new perspectives, principles and models make it possible to identify and link further clinically relevant factors in relation to health and allostasis that have not previously been considered. This is why we do not speak of a primary somatic dysfunction, but of soma-physiology-experience-context dysfunction patterns, which are taken into account in the diagnosis. We also consider which resources maintain the existing balance and which changes in the patient are possible with which osteopathic approaches at a certain point in time.

Between the two parts of the course, Basic 1 and 2, there will be approximately 30 minutes of small group work every two weeks.
