“The Canadian Academy of Osteopathy has a unique learning environment where a challenging curriculum is coupled with educators who are intent on seeing you succeed in the field of classical osteopathy. The emphasis on the roots of the profession gives the curriculum substance and depth unlike the majority of other programs which are technique-driven. Anyone can be taught technique, but the art is integrating all the techniques, understanding why you’re applying them and taking into consideration the entire physiologic effect of treatment according to the principles of osteopathy. I chose this program because I feel that higher learning and enlightenment only comes with getting a true grasp of all fundamental components, not just throwing pieces of information together haphazardly. The Canadian Academy of Osteopathy has helped me understand how to do that.”
