I'm an OT with a background in massage therapy, yoga and qigong, however, I have often struggled with how to incorporate these body-mind techniques into the traditional medical setting. This instructor gave me confidence in knowing that others are able to weave these skills in, and the course content provided brief but very rich ideas as to how these practices can be used to help patients dealing with chronic pain. Wonderful integration.

I was recently introduced to Eastern medicine's approach and effectiveness to improving overall function. It was great to see OT utilizing some of these less "talked about" approaches for the benefit of patients. Learning more on how to integrate these strategies into practice or just become more educated on other effective methodologies is something I would like to do in the future. Excellent reminder and introduction for how to bring something different into daily practice.

I appreciated the instructor's enthusiasm for this subject, which was apparently reinforced by his experience in improving his own physical limitations using these methods. My knowledged of these ares was reinfocred to the extent possible by this short course. I can see how these tools could easily be added to a therapists existing box of skills and plugged into treatment when it would seem helpful.

I work with children in the school setting as an OT however I have been very interested in creating a better work/personal life balance to enhance the services I offer to my students. I have cerebral palsy and have experienced the worst pain due to tightness from spasticity in my right affected shoulder. I am very into yoga however I have only taken about 4 weeks of tai chi. It maybe something I explore more. I am certain pandemic stress and pandemic sitting for virtual services inflamed the tightness I was naturally experiencing. I am certain the new things I am learning for myself will also benefit my young students. Thank you!
