I highly recommend the NUMSS Osteopathy and Naprapathy degree programs. The wide range and depth of comprehensive courses taught by highly knowledgeable and passionate professors provide a rich education in these disciplines. I am so thankful for the opportunity to have studied here!

I began my professional journey in osteopathy by studying classical osteopathy in Ontario. However, this initial training did not meet my expectations. Based on a recommendation from another manual osteopath, I enrolled at the National Academy of Osteopathy (NAO), which profoundly transformed my career.

The research-based orthopedic style of osteopathy taught at NAO, combined with the extensive business lectures by Dr. Pourgol, played a crucial role in my success as a manual osteopath. Over the past few years, my clinic has been recognized as the best in the area, and I have been honored as the top manual osteopath in Newmarket and Holland Landing, Ontario. We currently employ 24 professionals, including our amazing administration staff, osteopaths (all NAO graduates), massage therapists, chiropractors, physiotherapists, naturopaths, reflexologists, and an acupuncturist.

I furthered my education at the National University of Medical Sciences (NUMSS), where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Osteopathy (BSc. Ost) as well as doctoral degrees in osteopathy and naprapathy. I am also currently enrolled in an MBA (Health) program at NUMSS and am eager to expand my business knowledge.

Although I graduated some years ago, I still attend the practical technique classes offered by Dr. Pourgol. His business lessons, provided throughout these technique days, continue to be highly beneficial to me.

I am deeply grateful to NAO, NUMSS, and Dr. Pourgol for their significant impact on my career. My success is a direct result of the education I received from these institutions, and I am committed to continuing my education with Dr. Pourgol.

If you are considering a career as a manual osteopath, I highly recommend NAO and NUMSS. You will receive top-notch osteopathic education with a strong emphasis on chronic pain management that is not covered elsewhere. The programs include unique techniques, such as osteopathic manual mechanotherapy and osteopathic psychosomatic techniques. Dr. Pourgol's business lectures are also exceptional, offering invaluable insights into financial management. For example, during a practical class in Panama City, I learned advanced tax strategies that significantly reduced my tax burden.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the campus in Panama City. The location offers stunning views of the sea and the city, and Dr. Pourgol makes learning engaging and enjoyable. I am grateful for the opportunity to study at this beautiful campus and would gladly return, as Panama is a wonderful country that I truly love.

Studying at NUMSS has been an enriching experience since the very beginning. It had a wonderful closure at the Panamá campus where the practical portion of the techniques were clearly presented. In my opinion, hands on practice is invaluable and most needed. Dr. Pourgol did a wonderful job sharing with us his knowledge and expertise.

Hi Dr. Pougol,
Thank you again for the training; it was amazing! I studied osteopathy at the National University of Medical Sciences to gain a deeper understanding of bones and ligaments and how to treat the body. I thoroughly enjoyed the lectures and am now better equipped to help others recover from chronic pain. It’s remarkable what humans can achieve with their hands.

I have been a LMT for over 8 years, always taking classes all over the world, Thailand, Mexico, USA and this is the most open eye training, as a business owner and as a professional in the healthcare industry, the amount of information and knowledge is worth every penny. Dc Shawn Pourgol is the most kindest and passionate teacher that you can ask for.. I highly recommend.
