Top Athlete Becomes Osteopath

Canada’s member of National Soccer Team, osteopath Ann Shivas, MT, DOMP (a graduate of National Academy of Osteopathy in Montreal) writes about NAO:

I had a really good experience with NAO

I did my research looking at a school which fit my style of independent learning. I loved the on campus practicals for learning techniques.

The teachers/professors answered all of my questions and were easily accessed by email……………………….. Currently, I have my own business in Montreal called On The Go Osteo. The business lectures helped me set up a good model and now I am expanding.

I would invite you to come see my office space or make an appointment to experience the benefits of Manual Osteopathy.
