This is the final subject in the OMT course and is divided into two main areas. The first requires the student to research an area of interest and present this in a formal lecture setting. The second is the application of the principles learnt in the course in a supervised clinical situation. This will examine the students approach to assessment, diagnosis and treatment and their ability to incorporate clinical reasoning.
