I feel like alot of my classmates have a "throw the baby out with the bathwater" perspective. They will learn 10 techniques, 9 of them will have an obvious medical application, but the 1 that is questionable will make them second guess the entire thing. Something not too many people think about is when you're practicing on someone else in your class, they are likely to be a healthy 20 something without significant anatomical dysfunctions...so when they dont "feel" what theyre supposed to diagnose, they think its a bunch of hooey. Personally I recognize the benefit of OMM, but some techniques are either too difficult to perform/learn effectively as a student or the patient population that would benefit is too narrow.
Do I think its a joke? no, but they should nix some of the techniques from the curriculum in order to focus on the ones that can be more effective for the most people
