For those reading manga Dandadan, an Osteopath/OMT is like a chiropractor to put it simply, but they don’t value pseudoscience, and use your body to make SLOW adjustments.

For example, if it’s a neck adjustment, they’ll hold your head and tell you to push one way for a few seconds, pause, readjust, and do it twice more. (At least my experience.) Personally, I think pervert iron bull is more a chiro than osteo but I digress.

This is ridiculous! Dr O'Connor is giving Osteopaths a bad name.

KJP IS NOT BIDEN’S DOCTOR. WHERE IS his physician Dr. O’Connor?!!

@PressSec is going IN CIRCLES spinning the ENDLESS lies — The lies and coverup are NOT working. It is a DOCUMENTED FACT that a neurologist who specializes in Parkinson’s Disease and movement disorders was called to the First Family clinic by the President’s personal physician. Who did he see and for what reason?? The American people deserve to know the TRUTH!!!

HEART-NECK-PAIN-LINK

⠀

THE PERICARDIUM

⠀

[FASCIAL ANATOMY - OSTEOPATHIC APPROACH]

⠀

This post and illustrations are an amazing follow up to my previous post about the pericardium and connection to neck pain.

⠀

The heart (1) has obvious importance for sustaining life but it has a lesser known connection to the more “orthopedic” problems commonly seen amongst patients. Specifically, the fascial outer layering called the pericardium is directly connected to multiple tissues in the thorax and spine.

⠀

On the anterior is the connection to the sternum (2) via the superior and inferior sternopericardiac ligaments (3,4). Superiorly, the link is the cervico-pericardiac ligament (5), which is connected to the deep cervical fascia (green) and houses the trunk of the brachio-cephalic vein (6). Inferiorly, the pericardium directly connects to the diaphragm (7). Lastly, and perhaps most interesting, is the posterior-superior connection to the cervical spine. The Vertebro-pericardiac ligament (8) directly connects the heart to the anterior aspects of C6 and C7.

⠀

Tension on bones is not just muscular, but can be from visceral connections such as this. Tension in this tissue can contribute the anterior translation and sheer forces in the vertebrae and discs. This raises the question why we see so much degeneration, disc herniation and pain at the lower cervical spine. Perhaps a direct connection of cervical problems to poor breathing patterns? Maybe we can positively influence the heart via the neck as therapists? The anatomical LINKS provide us the possibilities!

⠀

How I manipulate the pericardium with a fascial recoil technique via the sternum you can see in my previous post. You can influence the pericardium via the superior and inferior sternopericardiac ligaments (3,4).

How I’m keeping sane

Hard workout this morning, did some rock climbing at the gym (mainly slab and I sent a crack climb but damn my arms and back are sore)

Did 35 minutes on the stair climber (my year goal was 40 min, in January I could only do 15 at a pretty slow rate, so I’m pretty excited to be getting so close faster than expected)

Made a lavender latte with ingredients I got from the farmer’s market yesterday

Made a nice dinner for my SO and I since while we don’t celebrate Easter, our families do and we are pretty distanced from them

Made rice pudding as a desert

Multiple walks in the park with the dogs so they could watch the parties and Easter egg hunts

In January, President Biden's personal physician met with Walter Reed's Parkinson's disease specialist, Dr Cannard and cardiologist, Dr Atwood.

Top Washington D.C. neurologist had a meeting with President Biden’s personal doctor at the White House earlier this year, visitor logs reviewed by The Post show.

Dr. Kevin Cannard, a Parkinson’s disease expert at Walter Reed Medical Center, met with Dr. Kevin O’Connor, and two others at the White House residence clinic on Jan. 17, according to the records, which emerge as questions continue to swirl about the 81-year-old president’s mental health in the wake of his debate debacle last week with former President Trump.

Dr. John E. Atwood, a cardiologist at Walter Reed, was also in the 5 P.M. meeting, the White House visitor logs show.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS), who is a physician, said “many” in the medical community have “suspected for several years that the president might be suffering from Parkinson’s disease.”

“Sadly, over 500,000 Americans are afflicted by this progressive neurological condition. If the president of the United States is among them, the American people deserve to know before voting in November,” he told The Post.

Dr. Rob Howard, a professor of old age psychiatry at University College London, said that President Biden displayed many symptoms indicative of Parkinson’s disease.

The president’s “fluctuation in attentional function, his facial appearance, and his gait,” were all signs that something is amiss, said Howard, who has never examined Biden and added he was not offering a formal diagnosis.

“I am not saying its Parkinson’s disease, I am just pointing out that there are features to him that are consistent with Parkinson’s disease.”

Cannard is an authority on Parkinson’s who has worked at Walter Reed for nearly 20 years.

Since 2012, he has served as the “neurology specialist supporting the White House Medical Unit,” according to his LinkedIn.

His most recent paper was published in August 2023 in the journal Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, and focuses on the “early-stage” of the crippling disease.

Tragic that this Kevin O'Connor would risk his medical license to coverup for the Biden family and jeopardize our national security.

How to Ease Shoulder Blade Pain and Regain Comfort?

Shoulder blade pain can feel like a nagging ache or sharp discomfort between the shoulder blades, often caused by poor posture, muscle strain, or even stress. Sitting for long hours, lifting heavy objects incorrectly, or sleeping in an awkward position can lead to tightness and pain in this area, affecting your ability to move freely.

To target shoulder blade pain effectively, I use deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, mobilisation, and post-isometric relaxation (PIR). These techniques release muscle tension, improve circulation, and restore flexibility to the shoulder and upper back, offering relief that many clients feel after just one session.

For long-term results, weekly preventive sessions are essential. These regular treatments help to keep muscles relaxed and reduce the risk of recurring pain. Additionally, I provide simple exercises that you can do at home to strengthen the upper back and maintain proper posture, promoting ongoing comfort.

If shoulder blade pain is limiting your movement, send me a message to book your session and take the first step towards relief and freedom.

Osteopathy Health Care in Hamilton: A Holistic Approach to Wellness

Osteopathy is a growing field of healthcare that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders. Unlike conventional medicine, osteopathy takes a holistic approach, emphasizing the body’s ability to heal itself when it is in proper alignment. In Hamilton, Ontario, osteopathy has become increasingly popular as residents seek natural, non-invasive methods for managing pain, improving mobility, and enhancing overall well-being.

What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy that treats the body as an interconnected system. Practitioners, known as osteopathic manual practitioners (OMPs), use their hands to assess, diagnose, and treat various health conditions. They focus on the musculoskeletal system—bones, muscles, and joints—while also considering how other body systems (nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic) interact and contribute to health.

Osteopathic treatments involve techniques such as soft tissue manipulation, joint mobilization, and stretching. These techniques aim to relieve tension, restore balance, and support the body’s natural healing processes. Common conditions treated include back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint stiffness, postural problems, and sports injuries.

Osteopathy Clinics in Hamilton

Hamilton is home to a variety of reputable osteopathy clinics that serve a diverse population. These clinics often combine osteopathic care with other complementary therapies, such as massage therapy, physiotherapy, acupuncture, and chiropractic care, to provide well-rounded treatment plans tailored to individual needs.

Most osteopathy clinics in Hamilton are staffed by certified osteopathic manual practitioners who have completed rigorous training and adhere to professional standards set by organizations such as the Ontario Association of Osteopathic Manual Practitioners (OAO). These professionals take a patient-centered approach, conducting thorough assessments and working closely with clients to understand their medical history, lifestyle, and health goals.

Benefits of Osteopathy in Hamilton

One of the key advantages of seeking osteopathic care in Hamilton is access to personalized, one-on-one treatment. Patients often report improvements not just in physical symptoms, but also in energy levels, sleep quality, and mental clarity.

Osteopathy is suitable for people of all ages—from infants to seniors—and is particularly beneficial for individuals recovering from injuries, experiencing chronic pain, or dealing with stress-related physical issues. It is also commonly used as a preventive healthcare method to maintain proper posture, flexibility, and balance.

Additionally, many osteopathy clinics in Hamilton offer flexible scheduling, direct billing to insurance providers, and a welcoming environment that prioritizes comfort and trust.

Choosing the Right Osteopathy Clinic

When choosing an osteopathy clinic in Hamilton, it’s important to research practitioners’ credentials, read client reviews, and consider the clinic’s range of services. Scheduling an initial consultation can also help determine if the clinic aligns with your health needs and expectations. In conclusion, osteopathy health care in Hamilton offers a safe, effective, and natural way to address a wide range of health issues. Whether you’re managing chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or looking to improve your overall health, an osteopathy clinic in Hamilton could be the ideal partner on your wellness journey.
