Introduction to Osteopathy
Why Physician-Guided Touch Restores Health
& Optimizes Performance
You've tried everything. The pills. The physical therapy. The injections. The specialists. And nothing worked. Or maybe worse…
You've been told "it's just stress" or "learn to live with it."
But you're right—you DO need help. Your body isn't broken. It's stuck.
Join Dr. Ryan Christensen, DO—board-certified physician and former Family Medicine Residency Director—for a FREE live masterclass and discover why osteopathic medicine treats the 80% of your body conventional medicine ignores.

the problem you face
You've been dismissed:
❌ "Your labs are normal."
❌ "It's just anxiety."
❌ "There's nothing we can do."
❌ "You'll have to manage this forever."
❌ "You're getting old—everything hurts. That's just life."
But you still feel:
😣 Chronic pain that steals your life
😴 Crushing fatigue no amount of rest can fix
🤯 A nervous system stuck in overdrive
💔 Like your body has betrayed you
😞 Can't do what you enjoy anymore 🚫
The doctor says you're fine... but you're NOT fine
Here's what they're missing: Your body isn't broken. It's stuck. When motion stops—in your fascia, your joints, your lymph, your cranial rhythm, your nervous system—healing stops too.
Blood is made in the bone. “The rule of the artery is supreme.” Bone and fascia hold the secrets medicine is missing.
Dr. Andrew Taylor Still called his science osteopathy in 1874—150+ years ago—because he understood: osteo (bone) + pathy (disease/suffering) = the foundation of health.
Osteopathic medicine restores motion. And when motion returns, so does health.

1. What if I can’t attend live?
No problem. As long as you register, you’ll receive the full replay by email after the masterclass, along with the bonus resources. Live attendance is encouraged so you can ask questions in real time, but it’s not required.
2. Is this masterclass right for me?
This training is designed primary for people interested in improving their health without drugs or invasive procedures or those who have heard of osteopathy or osteopathic manipulative medicine and wants a deeper dive from an expert.
👨⚕️If you're dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, Long COVID, “mystery” symptoms, or performance plateaus—and for parents or caregivers who want a deeper, physician-level understanding of osteopathic care. You do not need any medical background.
3. Will you be giving medical advice or personal treatment plans?
No. This is an educational masterclass, not a medical visit. I’ll explain how osteopathy works, share real case examples, and answer general questions—but I can’t diagnose or treat anyone in this format. If you want one-on-one care, we’ll share how to explore that at Still Waters Osteopathy.
4. How do I join the session and get the replay?
After you register, you’ll receive an email with your Zoom link and calendar links. We’ll also send reminders before we go live. After the masterclass, you’ll get an email with the replay, bonus resources, and—if you attended live—your exclusive discount code for an introductory session.
If you’ve tried everything and still don’t feel like yourself, don’t sit this one out—join me live and see what osteopathy can do for you.
