استئو پتی درمانی
این روش از طریق دستکاری بدن ، وبه ویژه ستون فقرات بیمارها را درمان میکند . حتی در مورد ی که به نظر میرسد علائم بیماری هیچ ربطی به ستون فقران نداشته باشد محقق اولیه این روش استدلال میکرد که در ماشینی که اجزاء متحرک دارد خراب شدن یک جزء باعث خرابکاری کل ماشین میشود و همچنین است در بدن انسان ؛ فرسودگی یا نقض و یا خرابی یک عضو بدن انسان باعث تغیر عملکرد مطلوب بدن او میشود. بنابراین او کوشید چرا و چگونگی پیدایش این وضعیت را کشف کند. فرضیه اساسی او این بود که بسیاری ازبیماری ها که گریبانگیر انسان میشود میتوان به سادگی براساس بدکاری مکانیکی یک یا چند عضو بدن او درک کرد. و توضیح داد. او توانست نشان دهد که بسیاری ازبیماری ها مربوط به اختلال در ستون فقرات هستند و روش او میتواند بسیاری ازبیماری های غیراستخوانی رانیزدرمان کند. تأکید او بر نقش آشفتگی های ستون فقرت در پیدایش برخی بیماری ها شباهت به نگرش روش ها ی کایروپرکتیک درمانی و الکساندر درمانی است.دکتراستین محقق این روش فرمول قاعده شریانی را ساخت و توضیح داد که اساس این قاعده این است که هرگاه ترکیب و جریان خون طبیعی است بیماری نمیتواند پدید اید زیرا خون ما در شرایط طبیعی حاضراست همه عناصر حافظ ایمنی در مقابل بیماری ها را تولید کند. فشار دائم ناآگاهانه برمهره ها و سو ء استفاده دائم از آن مهره ها ودیگر مفصل ها ، انواع دردهای پشت و کمر ودردهای پاها را که امروز شیوع بسیار گسترده ای دارند تولید میکنندوپائین افتادن اعضای درونی بدن نیز بیماری های چون هرینا، یبوست مزمن و بواسیرو واریس رگ های پاها راتولد میکند. این روش در سطح دستکاری کردن میکوشد که عاملی را که باعث بیماری شده است اصلاح و طبیعی کند. اگر منطقه گرفتارآن عوارض نزدیک به ریشه عصبی یاشریان خونی در ستون فقرات باشد اصلاح کردن وضعیت مهره ها و مفاصل و آزاد کردن بافت های ارتباطی از زیر فشار ، میتواندبه جریان خون امکان دهد که نه تنها به اندام های آن منطقه از بدن بلکه به رشته های عصبی اندام های دوردست نیزبهتربرسد . به این طریق است که استئوپتی درمانی نتایج خوبی از اعضای بدن که دوراز منطقه ظهور علائم دردو بیماری هستند تولید کند جلسه ملاقات با درمانگر با شرح تاریخچه پزشکی بیمارآغاز میشود . به طریقی که مشکلات و دردهای پدید آمده رارفع کند و ساختارآنهارا اصلاح و طبیعی کند . این روش برای درمان درد پشت ،اندام های مفصلی ، برخی انواع برانشیت ؛ تنگی نفس ،انواع سردرد میگرن ، که با هیچ درمان دیگر بهبود نیافته اند وبرخی مشکلات اصلاح پذیر چشم مفید بوده است Thursday, May 30, 2013
Thank you Canada
Thank you Canada. I love you so much!

Are You Following the 10-20 Rule?
Are You Following the 10-20 Rule?
Achieving success in your practice is easier than you think.
All you need is to attract more new patients, make your current patients use
your services more often, and to offer them more services. I strongly recommend
all health practitioners to enrol in our MBA in Health Care program. This one
of a kind degree teaches you everything you need to become successful.
One way to get more new patients is a marketing technique I
named 10-20 rule. It states that to get more new patients an osteopath must
hand out, on daily basis 10 business cards and 20 flyers. Exposure is
everything. The more people who know you, the more new patients you shall have.
It is as simple as that.
So give your business cards to everyone you meet, from gas
stations attendant to coffee shop cashier to your waitress. Include a flyer in
any mails you send out to your patients or when paying bills. And hand out some
flyers to your patients after each visit to be distributed to co-workers and
friends.

Osteopathy Marketing Tip from Dr Pourgol
Are You Benefiting from OPT?
I was one of the top 10 doctors in Canada seeing over 150 patients a day. One reason behind my success was that I mastered a revolutionary marketing concept called “Other People’s Time”. I had 1000s of people do marketing for me without costing me anything.
The concept is quite simple. You get other people to use their time for the benefit of your clinic because they want to help you grow. There are many ways of motivating people to use their time for your benefit. One of the most effective is also the simplest! Ask and you shall receive.
Simply ask your patients to help you grow. After each treatment give them 5 to 10 clinic flyers and ask them to distribute them with their friends and co-workers. Patients like their osteopaths and would love to have an opportunity to help them. This inside marketing technique is great in building your osteopathic practice.

NAO Online vs In-Campus education
It is frequently asked if there is a difference between the online and campus based education provided by National Academy of Osteopathy.
Here are some similarities and differences between the two
types of education.
- In-campus education is more expensive.
- Both online and campus based cover the same material and
have the same amount of teaching lecture hours (the practice hours differ however). While campus based students stay over 8
hours in the NAO campus to practice and watch the lectures, the online students practice at home. This means the total numbers of hours (practice & teaching) differs between the two programs. The online students practice at home, therefore the total number of hours they spend with an instructor is less than the campus based student. However the teaching hours are the same for both programs.
- Campus based students watch lectures for two hours per day and practice over six hours at the school technique room. Online students study a couple of hours of online lectures per day and spent 6 hours of technique practice at home. NAO video server has available only the teaching lecture videos, not the practice sessions. Online students spent less time with an instructor as there is no recorded practice session available on NAO video server.
- Campus based students watch lectures for two hours per day and practice over six hours at the school technique room. Online students study a couple of hours of online lectures per day and spent 6 hours of technique practice at home. NAO video server has available only the teaching lecture videos, not the practice sessions. Online students spent less time with an instructor as there is no recorded practice session available on NAO video server.
- The campus based students, after the lectures get to
practice on each other while online students must practice on a friend or
family member.
- The campus based students also have access to the online
education.
- The online students have the option of attending two weeks
of full time practical in-campus classes at the end of their program, free of
charge.
- The instructors are the same for both programs.
- The practice hours of online students at home is
considered part of their education and they should spend 8 hours per day (for
full time classes) watching the lectures and practicing.
- Both the online and in-campus types of education are
accepted by associations that accept NAO.
- NAO diploma does not mention if a student is an online or
campus based student.
- Less than 1% of NAO students register for in-campus program.
Majority prefer online education.
Osteopathic Business Advice by Dr Pourgol
WHO IS YOUR IP?
Knowing who is your Ideal Patient is THE most important information all practicing osteopaths must have. A number of osteopaths (mostly my students!) can dictate who their IPs are as they know how to attract the type of IP they want from the start of their professional work. However the IP for most osteopaths depend on the clinic location.
You should know who your IP is. You can find this by using a computer software such as Microsoft Excel. Clinic management software also can handle this analysis as well. All the information you need is in the new patient questionnaire forms. Patient’s sex, age, occupation, etc. Analyse these info to see who are your IPs. If majority of your patients for example are male blue collar workers, between the ages of 40 to 50, then those are your Ideal Patients for your clinic at this particular location. If you work in more than one clinic you should find your IP for each clinic as they most likely differ.
Once you know who your IPs are, then you should direct all your marketing activities to this group. Finding your IP is a key to your success.

Continuing Education for Massage Therapists ($282.50

Most regulatory boards require massage therapists to enrol
in a continuing education course with 2o continuing education units (CEU) every
year or two. For example the registered massage therapists of Ontario must
complete 30 CEU every 3 years, 20 of which must be category A, however all 30
CEU could be Category A as well. Taking two of the course NAO offers would satisfy
the requirement set by your regulatory board. CEUs are calculated at one CEU for every two hours involved in the learning
activity.
National Academy of Osteopathy offers the following courses
for massage therapists in every major city across North America, Australia, New
Zealand and Western Europe to all health practitioners.
We have kept the course tuition low to make them affordable.

all countries. Each course offered satisfies 20 CEU. Courses are offered the
first weekend of every month (12 times per year). Space is limited so to
reserve your spot please apply early.

Manual Osteopathy Regulation in Ontario, Canada
Unite!
To Get Manual Osteopathy Regulated in Ontario.
It is time for the profession of manual osteopathy to become regulated in the Province of Ontario. To do so all manual osteopaths, manual osteopathic associations and manual osteopathic schools should unite for the benefit of the profession. There should be only one lobbyist representative of manual osteopathy profession who approaches the Ontario provincial government. More than one group indicates this profession is not united and cannot be regulated.
There are many steps that should be followed prior to seeking regulation. We have already some of these in place. There must be a national standard testing system for manual osteopaths, which is already here since 3 years ago through the Canadian Manual Osteopathy Examining Board. There should be a system to accredit the manual osteopathy colleges which already exists through the Council on Manual Osteopathy Education. There should be regulatory college by-laws, which the Ontario Association of Osteopathic Manual Practitioners has already completed. There should be a history of teaching which through the Canadian College of Osteopathy has been established for decades, and there should be a large number of manual osteopaths, which there are over 1,000 in Ontario.
We have most of the regulatory requirements. To pursue manual osteopathy regulation, first and foremost we must unite. We should form a committee with the sole goal of getting manual osteopathy regulated in Ontario. We should hire a political lobbyist to pursue this matter on a full time basis. This committee should raise funds through manual osteopaths, associations and colleges. Everyone must contribute to this goal. The committee must also seek grass root support. We must get all patients, students, manual osteopaths and friends of manual osteopathy to sign a petition and to contact local provincial politicians. The grass root support is the main key to getting us regulated along with hiring a political lobbyist.
National Academy of Osteopathy (NAO), International Osteopathy Association (IOA), Canadian Manual Osteopathy Examining Board (CMOEB), Council on Manual Osteopathy Education (CMOE) & Ontario College of Osteopathic Rehabilitation Sciences (OCORS) have joined together and we want all other schools, associations and manual osteopaths to join us to form a committee. Mr Amir Kazemi of National Academy of Osteopathy will contact all associations and colleges to invite them to join us for a meeting. All manual osteopaths who are interested should also contact Mr Kazemi at
amir@nationalacademyofosteopathy.co or (416) 635-6550. Let us get together, spend some time and money and get this wonderful profession regulated in Ontario.
Thank you.

Working in USA, Canada, Australia, UK, New Zealand
After graduating from your osteopathy program, can I
practice in Canada, USA, Australia, UK & New Zealand?
Yes, you can practice and open a clinic in all Canadian
provinces, all US states, and everywhere else in Australia, United Kingdom and
New Zealand.
However the osteopathy profession is regulated in these countries
and our graduates must work as osteopathic manual practitioners. They may not
use the term osteopaths in these countries. For example in the USA & Canada,
the term osteopath is reserved for osteopathic physicians who do surgery and
prescribe medications.
In all other countries, including Italy, Spain, France,
Ireland, Germany, Netherlands, South Korea, Brazil, Iran, China, Taiwan, Japan,
Israel, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, Singapore, Mexico,
Venezuela, Greece, Tanzania, South Africa, Vietnam, Netherlands, Turkey, Austria, Sweden, Denmark,
Norway, Switzerland, & Denmark , our graduates can use the term osteopath
and practice as osteopaths.
Could osteopaths bill insurers for two types of treatments?
Could osteopaths bill insurers for two types of treatments?
Yes but it depends on the type of patient’s coverage, EHP or MVA.
In most cases you cannot bill extended health plan (EHP) insurers for osteopathy and another type of treatment (chiropractic, physiotherapy, massage therapy, naturopathy, athletic therapy, acupuncture, etc) on the same day. Most EHP insurers accept only one type of treatment from one health practitioner. Your clinic can bill for osteopathy and massage therapy for example on the same day if the treatments are performed by two health practitioners. But if the health practitioner is a massage therapist/osteopath then in one day massage therapy must be billed and another day osteopathy.
This does not apply to motor vehicle accident (MVA) patients. For MVA patients health practitioners can charge the insurers for more than one type of therapy. For example on the same visit an insurer can be billed for osteopathic treatment, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation.

Continuing Education (CE) Credits
I am a licensed health practitioner. Can I use my osteopathic
education towards my Continuing Education (CE) requirements of my regulatory
board?
Yes. Most regulatory boards for chiropractors,
physiotherapists, massage therapists, naturopaths, acupuncturists, occupational
therapists, kinesiologists, athletic therapists & trainers, homeopaths,
& medical doctors accept the time you spent studying in our programs
towards your CE requirement. Most regulatory boards require 20 to 40 hours of
CE in a year or two, and our programs cover this requirement as all our
programs are over 40 hours.

Osteopathy in South Korea
Osteopathy in South Korea
Osteopathic treatments are in high demand in South Korea. Patients seem to enjoy osteopathic treatments and it is a well established, well reimbursed type of treatment within the insurance system in South Korea.
Osteopaths in South Korea charge anywhere from $50 US (per hour) to $300 US (for serious cases requiring few hours of osteopathic rehabilitation) for osteopathic treatments which is paid by most private insurers in South Korea (such as Signa, Aetna, SOS Alliance, & Blue Shield).
South Korean public national health insurance pays for osteopathic treatments if done by a physiotherapist, Medical Doctor or an Oriental Medical Doctor. The payment rate by government varies depending on who provides the osteopathic treatment. It is the highest if the treatment is done by a medical doctor. The payment is $5 US per osteopathic treatment if done by a physiotherapist.
Osteopaths who are not a licensed health professionals can open a clinic in South Korea but are not permitted to provide treatments to South Korean citizens. They can however provide osteopathic treatments to foreigners. There are a number osteopaths there who only treat foreigners in Seoul as there is a large US military base near Seoul.
