Insight for Life

Addressing cultural and relational issues from a practical, Biblical perspective

Health & Well-Being – Mar 18, 2010

Many people suffer from ongoing or undiagnosed musculoskeletal aches and pains.  The source of their discomfort can often be a result of a problem found elsewhere in the body.  When assessing such disorders,  should the painful area be viewed as an entity unto itself or should the body be approached as a whole?  This seminar will address these issues from an assessment and treatment perspective and will integrate a Biblically centred, spiritual component to achieve holistic well-being.

Dr. Gordon van der Pol is a registered physiotherapist and has completed a doctorate in osteopathic manual practice. He has over 18 years of experience in the fields of rehabilitation medicine, orthopaedics, sports medicine and osteopathic manual practice. He currently owns and operates the Ontario Osteopathic and Rehabilitation Centre in Burlington.
