Episode 36: The Problem with Supplements and other Non-Osteopathic Interventions: Timing is Everything

About this episode

This episode discusses the importance of timing in introducing non-osteopathic treatments within osteopathic care.

All non-osteopathic complementary therapies must be well timed, so that the awareness of what is effective is evident. In an Osteopathic treatment context, it’s crucial when we introduce a non-Osteopathic element. This episode isn’t about the specifics of supplements. It is about optimizing the timing of all other treatments to support the learning process of both the Osteopath and the patient. ~~~ We’ve created several foundational episodes, which are free and are available anywhere you get your podcasts.
