He graduated from Chiropractic College and Osteopathic studies in England in 1982 and further Osteopath studies in Canada 2011/2012. Richard Stuart is currently teaching the Cranio/Sacral modality in a Canadian Osteopathic College. Richard has studied 35 different modalities and has been in practise since 1983. His unique style integrates the many styles of practises he has learned, so that most applications are very gentle and effective for treating painful conditions. Much of the current Osteopathic work is using neuromuscular techniques to restore muscle function, which is where a lot of body pain originates.
Richard Stuart is an Osteopathic Manipulative Practitioner.
In addition to the above Richard taught basic and advanced modules of the Bodytalksystem for 15 yrs and, often incorporates this into Osteopathic treatments. This is also called energy medicine, just think of your self as a computer where some of the software has lost programming (due to knocks bangs falls car accidents heart ache or loss, this method turns the software back on so you are not running on inferior back up systems and feeling lack lustre. Most of my work is dealing with headaches, neck pain,back pain, hi,p knee, and foot pain.
