Dr. Huls - God's Mechanic: The Manipulative Practice of William J. Huls

As a student or professional osteopath, this book is a must have just to have something to aspire to and see just how powerful the change can be if you follow the principles laid out by the founder of the profession. Truly amazing tales from an amazing man and osteopath truly gifted and always seeking a mechanical solution. It's a shame ego got in the way and the profession didn't continue to become what people like this man and his predecessors had envisioned.

Loved this book. My parents used to drive us (the family) out from California to Arizona just to see Dr. Huls and receive his wonderful treatments, but I was only a baby at the time. I actually felt inspired by his stories. Not that I'm going to go and do what he did, but I need to always remember that my body is a gift from God and that I need to do better to take care of it. I don't want to insult what he and many other great doctors over the years have done. I especially don't want to insult God. Dr. Huls did amazing work and he gave his credit to the Lord in being an instrument in helping people. Our bodies were designed to be healed. What he did was not radical, but a blessing. My siblings and I always heard many stories over the years of the amazing work he did. My dad and I were talking on the phone one night and were talking about him and I thought if he was so great, then let me see if there is something written about him. Here it is. If you or someone you know were a patient of his, then call the number on the back. They are wanting people to submit their personal stories so they can write another book. It's too bad there aren't more doctors like him today.

This was an easy read that anyone with an interest in tissue and muscle manipulation should read. Chiropractors, massage therapists, people in chronic pain would all get something out of this book. I had an interest because i have been to a myropractor and had excellent results and my wife happened to go to the mayo clinic for her schooling.

Great read, really shows what a real Osteopath is capable of if they fully understand the anatomy and physiology behind the human body

this gives a great history of his life but there should be more information about his techniques, even if it is created in another tekt
