    Ep.110 A Healer, Always Wanting to Know More About Health – Anna Esparham, MD

    Ep.110 A Healer, Always Wanting to Know More About Health – Anna Esparham, MD

    At 14 years old she contracted E.coli, which led to
    sepsis and many subsequent health challenges. Later a polyglandular autoimmune syndrome which led to chronic fatigue during medical school. She was disappointed there was not more education on lifestyle modifications to optimize health. This led her to seek knowledge on Integrative medicine, and acupuncture. At a Helms Medical Acupuncture Institute course she met a few osteopathic physicians who introduced her to osteopathic manipulative treatment. Finding herself living in the town where osteopathy was founded she applied to the plus one year at the ONMM residency in Kirksville, MO. Now she will be the OMM course director of the second year osteopathic medical students at ATSU. We are fortunate to have her in our profession and thank her for the
    work she is doing forming the next generation of osteopathic physicians.

    Ep.109 Serving Others and Awe for Nature – Jared Cruz, DO

    Ep.109 Serving Others and Awe for Nature – Jared Cruz, DO

    After a near death experience, he realized his life had a purpose - that of serving others. He wasn’t sure what this would look like until he worked with an osteopathic physician. Then and there he knew this was his path. During medical school he participated in a 40 hour cranial course which helped him appreciate in a knew way the dignity of the person and the patient. Now working as a traveling physician, he sees how the philosophy of osteopathy treating the whole person Body, Mind and Spirit is important to improve our healthcare system and as a juxtaposition from the influence of purely technocratic data driven approach to a person’s health. He also works as part of the marketing committee for the Osteopathic Cranial Academy Foundation, promoting osteopathy to the public and the future generation of osteopathic physicians. Enjoy the conversation.

    Ep.107 Walking Tour of Kirksville, MO with Jason Haxton MA, DO (h.c.)

    Ep.107 Walking Tour of Kirksville, MO with Jason Haxton MA, DO (h.c.)

    This past weekend a few of us MSU residents decided to take a road trip to the birthplace of osteopathy – Kirksville, MO. Some of the highlights were visiting the Museum of Osteopathy, Dr. Still’s gravesite, touching the
    boots he wore and the staff he used. Jason, our guide, did an incredible job recounting the history and showing that although Still had his gifts he also had his limitations. I hope every osteopath is able to make it to Kirksville,
    and if you can’t well here are a few stories to share what it’s like.   

    Reach out to the podcast at the onmmpodcast@gmail.com with questions
    comments or if you would like to be on the podcast. As always be well, be curious and spread osteopathy.
