The Osteopathic Approach to Lymphatic Health: Fluid Mechanics and Manual Interventions
The lymphatic system—is fundamental for maintaining fluid balance, immune surveillance, and tissue homeostasis. Unlike the high‐pressure arterial and low‐pressure venous circuits, the lymphatic network relies on a delicate interplay of microanatomy, fluid physics, and both intrinsic and extrinsic forces to propel lymph from the interstitium back into the bloodstream. Osteopathic practitioners have long recognized thatContinueContinue reading “The Osteopathic Approach to Lymphatic Health: Fluid Mechanics and Manual Interventions”
Biofluid Mechanics in Osteopathy: Unraveling the Science of Fluid Flow
In Osteopathic Philosophy we often talk about “structure and function” being intimately related. Nowhere is this relationship more apparent than in how fluids move throughout the body. A core tenet of osteopathic practice is that health depends on unrestricted flow—whether that’s blood, lymph, interstitial fluid, or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In this post, we’ll delve intoContinueContinue reading “Biofluid Mechanics in Osteopathy: Unraveling the Science of Fluid Flow”
