I remember that feeling when my sister was battling cancer. And then she did…but I didn’t…. Those memories return to me as our tiny town mourns. A young man is lost, a man I never met but I still feel the sadness that lies like a blanket over our community. Shock Disbelief Saddness Grief We […]
Have you said this yourself, or know someone who has? Well, I hear it a lot…but seriously, how do we sleep wrong? Unless it’s in a chair or on a plane..that I can see but in our own bed? We go to bed and we’re fine, we wake up in pain. What the […]

It’s because we all apply the principles of Osteopathy differently, even […]
What is Osteopathic Manual Therapy? Do you have to go to school for that? Seriously, I’m asked questions like this all the time and you’d think that by this time I would have an easy answer.
