...more October 07, 2021What Is An Osteopath & What To Expect During An Osteopathic Treatment An osteopath is a manual therapist that is concerned with self-healing & self-regulation. They work WITH your body to help it self-regulate. Learn more about what osteopathy is, what to expect on your first treatment, and the biggest reasons people seek out osteopathy.Read the full transcript here.Have you ever had low back pain? Hip pain? What about tension in your neck and shoulders?If you’re having muscle pain, it seems common sense to see a massage therapist or a chiropractor.But, have you ever thought about an osteopath?Though osteopathy is just beginning to become a mainstream term, it’s actually been around since the first school of osteopathic medicine opened in 1892.Some of the benefits of osteopathy include:* Pain treatment* Alignment* Posture correction* Reduced symptoms for colds or infections* Fertility help* Digestive aid* So much moreIt’s important to remember that osteopathy is normally not a solution all on its own. Similar to weight loss, it takes a multi-faced approach to see long-term results.What Is An Osteopath?An osteopath is concerned with the self-healing and self-regulating components of the body.They look for asymmetry within the structure and then use a variety of techniques in order to correct the asymmetry.In lamens terms, an osteo looks at the body as a series of tubes. Any twists or turns in the tubes cause kinks.Those kinks make it so that the body doesn’t function as effectively as it could which in turn causes everyday issues (pain, discomfort, digestive stress, etc).An osteopath strives to correct the kink so that the area can flow.The Difference Between General Osteopathy & An Osteopathic DoctorWhile they sound similar and have similar beliefs. A general osteopath is very different from that of an osteopathic doctor – especially here in Canada.Both studies view the body as a series of systems that are interconnected. All the systems work together to help to body function optimally.Thus, a twinge in your back is normally so much more than just an issue with your back.However, a general osteopath is a manual therapist. They focus on the physical manipulation of the body to achieve results.Osteopathic doctors are trained in the United States and can use a variety of tools to help bring a person's body back to optimal.For the purpose of this podcast, we’re chatting to a general osteopath here in Canada who has a Masters Diploma in Osteopathic Manipulation from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy and is qualified to treat both humans and animals through osteopathic manipulationReasons To See An OsteopathThough there are an endless amount of reasons someone might seek out treatment, below are the most common ones,So long as it is not a medical emergency, osteopaths can help.* Constipation* Digestive issues* Headaches* Fertility* Dysfunction* Pain* Symptoms of disease (not the disease itself!)Osteopathic treatment is not just about the physical body. It really works on an internal basis as well.What You’ll Learn In The Podcast:...more August 31, 2020How To Start Eating Real Food (and make it practical for busy moms!)

...more June 26, 2020Self Care 101 - Bubble Baths Are Not The Answer The wellness trend is a hot one this year but unfortunately, many people have the vibe wrong. Self-care is about so much more than soaking in a hot bath, grabbing a pedicure, or drinks with the girls.
