American Academy of Osteopathy (AAO) Convocation 2024

American Academy of Osteopathy (AAO) Convocation 2024 is organized by the American Academy of Osteopathy (AAO) and will be held from Mar 06 - 10, 2024 at The Broadmoor, Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States of America.

Theme: Maximizing Human Performance

Program Description:
One of the central tenets of osteopathy is the restoration of function in patients who have suffered from an injury or illness. In this conference, we will explore the other end of the spectrum, where osteopathy is used to maximize human performance in special populations of patients who push their bodies to their limits. Attendees will learn the principles of optimization, as well as care for special populations such as athletes, performing artists, and military personnel. The conference will also discuss maximizing the performance of osteopathic medical students and residents as they strive to incorporate osteopathic principles into their clinical training.

Who May Attend Convocation?
The AAO’s primary educational objective is to provide programs that enhance the philosophical foundation, palpatory diagnostic skills, and manipulative techniques of AAO members, nonmember DOs, other individuals who are licensed for the unlimited scope of practice of medicine, and those in programs leading to such licensure.

Although other healthcare professionals are welcome to learn about osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) at AAO programs, attending the AAO’s Convocation or its Pre-Convocation courses is not a substitute for graduating from osteopathic medical school and completing graduate medical education. Simply participating in continuing medical education programs in manual techniques does not provide the necessary training and skills to practice OMM.

Additional Details will be posted as soon as they are available.
