UTILIZING OSTEOPATHIC CONCEPTS ON A PRACTICAL BASIS Clinical presentation Patients presenting for t r e a t m e n t fall b r o a d l y into three camps: those with symptoms in their physical field (the musculoskeletal system), those with symptoms in their emotional field and those with symptoms in their chemical field (their internal environment; comprising their organs and internal body systems); although m a n y present with s y m p t o m s in several fields at once. ' Deciding this involves investigating the following: • the pathological state of the tissues; • the origin(s) of this condition; • maintaining factors that will limit or hinder recovery f r o m the pathological state of the tissues; • predisposing factors to the c o n d i t i o n , which if left unresolved might lead to a recurrence of the pathological state of the tissues - this presumes that the person can survive the presenting condition, giving time to work on prevention of future episodes; • rationalizing management strategies.

Under these changed circumstances the liver might require another type of actin than previously; a need that will have been c o m m u n i cated to the gene-transcription mechanisms by some means. H e n c e the 'liver' can adapt to external influences and its ongoing function may be slightly changed. T h e clinical ramifications of this are u n k n o w n . T h e point being made is that cellular activity is not the product of a simple one input-one output system.
