Even though the tradition of osteopathic medicine is based in primary care, more osteopathic graduates than in the past are pursuing subspecialties within medicine. Some claim that medical specialties, such as dermatology, compromise osteopathic principles and philosophy. However, the authors contend that dermatology exemplifies the ideals expressed by Andrew Taylor Still, MD, DO, and explain how osteopathic manipulative treatment and the principles of osteopathic medicine can be applied to dermatologic disease and patient care.
尽管整骨医学传统上以初级保健为基础，但如今追求医学亚专业的整骨医学毕业生比过去更多。一些人声称，皮肤科等医学专科违背了整骨医学的原则和理念。然而，作者认为皮肤科体现了医学博士、整骨医师安德鲁·泰勒·斯蒂尔所表达的理想，并解释了整骨手法治疗和整骨医学原理如何应用于皮肤病和患者护理。
