You still do OMM in those residencies, actually. You have to, it's a required component of all osteopathic residencies:
The program must train residents in the clinical application of osteopathic manipulative medicine. At a minimum this must include:
a. A clearly defined mechanism to measure and document competency in OMM.
b. Training in outpatient and inpatient settings.
c. Didactic instruction and hands on training.
d. Exposure to multiple treatment technique approaches.
e. Documentation of OMM in the medical record.
f. Coding and reimbursement.
One more reason to avoid DO residencies (as if there weren't enough already).
