Osteopathy is an established recognized system of healthcare which relies on manual contact for diagnosis and treatment. It respects the relationship of body, mind and spirit in health and disease; it lays emphasis on the structural and functional integrity of the body and the body's intrinsic tendency for self-healing.

Message from the President

Dear Member,

For the last two years the Executive Committee has been discussing the role of the organization and how it interfaces or complements with others, ie., Osteopathic International Alliance, ERO, FORE. So, WOHO is at a critical juncture and requests your opinion regarding the future role of the organization.
In preparation for the Annual General Meeting in Colorado Springs March 20, we would like your current opinion. What is the current role of WOHO? Has it accomplished its intended goals? Is there a continuing role for the organization? If so, does it continue as usual or does it redirect its efforts. If you have an interest, can you contribute to the continued need for active leadership?

Please read and reflect on the following and pass your comments and suggestions to the forum.

Zachary Comeaux
President
WOHO
