Fascia Kinetic Technique for the NUMSS DN Program

 

UK/USA graduated connective tissue specialist, Dr. Anson Ching, BSc, MSc, DPT, HMS, OMT (who practices in Taiwan and Hong Kong) has joined the faculty of National University of Medical Sciences (USA & Spain) as a professor to teach a full course on Fascia Kinetic Technique (FKT) to our doctor of naprapathy (DN) students.

FKT is a technique used in naprapathic medicine that combines hands-on manual therapy, Flossband and joint specific exercises to restore back to normal the fascial restriction resulting from a connective tissue disorder.

Flossband is used to limit the compensation of the fascia to facilitate the true muscle activation. For example, using hands-on naprapathic techniques to assess & treat the restriction of the connective tissue and then using the Flossband to limit its movement and therefore reduce the viscosity of the space between muscle and fascia.

Naprapathy (which differs from naturopathy) is a hands-on manual therapy profession that originated from osteopathy & chiropractic in 1907. Doctors of naprapathic medicine focus on connective tissue disorders and are considered connective tissue specialists.

Our online doctor of naprapathy (DN) graduates can join the American Naprapathic Association (founded in 1907) and the Canadian Naprapathic Association, which awards them the title of CNAP (Certified Naprapath).

In Canada NUMSS DN alumni who joins associations such as ACMA and ACTMD are eligible to bill private health insurers for naprapathic care they provide under naturotherapy.

We welcome Dr Ching to our family.

Average Income of Osteopaths in Spain: $126,000 per year

 

Many osteopaths move to Spain as the quality of life in Spain is one of the highest in the world. Spain is truly a paradise on earth. Year round great weather, amazing food, and happy people are some reasons why so many osteopaths move to Spain.

While Spain is not a wealthy country compared to the United States and the Western Europe, the cost of living is less therefore higher net income. Additionally osteopathy is a lucrative profession in Spain. The average annual income of osteopaths in Spain is 86,000 EURO (about $126,000 in Canadian dollars).

Those who want a peaceful religious country to raise a family, those who do not wish to spend 9 months of the year indoors due to cold, those who love 300 days of sunshine, the salty air and the Mediterranean sea, those who enjoy exotic veggies and fruits, those who enjoy beautiful houses, those who enjoy 1000s of years of history & culture, those who enjoy beautiful nature and happy people, & those who wish to enjoy a lucrative career as an osteopath should think about moving to Spain.

Spain has some of the easiest permanent residency visa programs in the world to the point that anyone who stays here illegally for 3 years can get a permanent resident status if they find an official job!!! (I do not recommend this of course as it is not correct to stay illegally in any country). This year they even introduced an easy to get digital nomad visa.

On a side note, the graduates of our doctoral programs at National University of Medical Sciences (USA & Spain) can use the title of "Dr - doctor" in Spain and offer full scope of practice there including reading x-rays, offering medical diagnosis and performing high velocity, low amplitude (HVLE) techniques.
