This week we sit down with Catherine Cabral-Marotta as she shares her journey to becoming an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner and the exciting launch of Ontario’s first Honours Bachelor of Science – Osteopathy program.

In this episode, we talk about what to do when sh$! hits the fan, but more importantly how to prevent your stress buffer from getting too low using three steps.

It’s so important to have a consistent routine so that you take charge of your day and aren’t just reacting to the events and external factors that come up throughout the day. As well as having a routine to reset and rebalance your energy between clients so that you enter every session prepared and ready to give your patient all the energy they deserve and to ensure that you show up as the best version of yourself. In this episode, we sit down with Jacob Simonini, Osteopath and Integration 2023 Keynote Speaker. Jacob is incredibly passionate about osteopathy and shares about his 4:30 am wake-ups and what he does in his routine to be a better person for his family and his clients.   ABOUT JACOB Jacob is an Osteopath whose career began as an Advanced Care Paramedic with many other focuses in the medical field. Jacob was a clinical instructor in the Advanced Care Paramedic program, a preceptor for Advanced Care Paramedic students, and studied and researched alongside a team of physicians involved in prehospital trauma and cardiac arrest examination. Looking for a new challenge and a more in-depth understanding of human bodies, Jacob began his osteopathic career at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy (CAO). Later, Jacob received a Master of Osteopathic Manual Science (MOMSc) and pursued a professional position as a member of the Ontario Osteopathic Association (OOA). Jacob betters his patients to the utmost ability using osteopathic skills and reasoning. The central idea Osteopathy teaches and what Jacob tries to preach and apply during treatments is that the practice seeks to free the natural healing capabilities of the body. Moreover, each treatment Jacob gives is tailored to every individual and the condition of their body. Due to the inability to truly identify the human body’s unique capabilities and never-ending true potential, Jacob continuously pursues the study of Osteopathy with the utmost diligence and dedication to challenging himself, knowing the answer to the body’s authentic potential will never be discovered. In doing so, Jacob pushes his limits and aspires to follow Marcus Aurelius’ noble words: “It takes courage to practice something that can never be mastered” Connect with Jacob: http://www.dynamichealthic.ca/ Jacob will be speaking at the Integration 2023 Canadian Osteopathy Symposium on "The Living Bone".   JOIN US AT INTEGRATION 2023 Live In-Person Symposium When: October 22nd, 2023 Where: Mohawk College, Hamilton, Ontario   Virtual Symposium When: November 19, 2023 Learn more and get your tickets here: www.integrationsymposium.com  Take advantage of Promo Code INTEGRATION for $25.00 off registration fee only Integration 2023 will bring together, for the first time, Canadian Osteopathic Manual Practitioners who are experts in their field.

The concept of these 3 E’s is something we have spoken about on our podcast before. When you have a new client enter your treatment room, this is your time to shine! This is where you make them feel like they have come to the right place to resolve their issue and make them wonder how they ever went to another therapist before that didn’t follow the 3 E’s philosophy.

As therapists, we often get caught up in caring for others and forgetting to care for ourselves. In this episode, we talk about  Catching yourself when aren’t in the habit of taking time for self-care. Resetting yourself between patients. Optimizing yourself just like you teach your patients to. The importance of rest and relaxation and time away from the office. And taking the time to acknowledge your hard work.   CONNECT WITH US Watch our Masterclass where we show you a behind-the-scenes look at our top 3 business strategies and 3 mindset musts for osteopaths to grow your practice, fuller, faster.

93% of communication is nonverbal. Both a blessing and a curse of our trade is that we tend to observe how people move, hold themselves, and speak all the time, even outside of our offices. All these cues are keys to getting a good reading of where a person is at, how they’re living, and what they’re currently going through. In today’s episode, we share how you can use these non-verbal cues to create a tailored treatment plan for your patients.
