Big news – I’m going back to school! (I know, stop me if you’ve heard this one already.) I’m going to explore osteopathy and come out in three years with a DOMP (diploma of osteopathic manual practice).

If you’re interested, I’ll be sharing my experiences with you on my website (haven't set up the blog page yet). I’ll be looking at what osteo is, with the inevitable compare and contrast with massage therapy, because that’s what I know. I’m looking for a new bias after 20 years as an RMT and new ways to treat my clients, as well as more techniques to help relieve pain and get the body moving better.

The study is part time, so I don’t have to give up work to get this done. For my massage peeps, this school is modular, so if you want to take a course, you can just pop in and take one with no prerequisites. Check out Southern Ontario College of Osteopathy if you’re interested. There’s a lot there that we only glanced at in massage school.

I look forward to seeing you!

Just a little support for our students. If you know anyone struggling with taking notes in class, I hope this will help.

Taking notes in a lecture should be easy, right? Just write down what the instructor says. But who can write that fast? And should you write by hand, or take

Getting back into our old routines will feel very new this year. Here are some tips to keep you comfortable.

Many adults know what it is like to fold themselves into desks and work for hours at a time in the same position. For kids (anyone under 25, lol), learning to

Questions for summer. :)

If you’re asking this question, you’re not completely sold on the benefits of massage therapy. You might assume that it is relaxing and good for the
