looking for a new practitioner

Accepted Answer

Possibly!: Hi! For a DO who does manipulation you could look under the AAO website (American Academy of Osteopathy).  That is where DOs who do more OMT, focus on osteopathy may be.  The AOA (American Osteopathic Assn) may also have one but is for ALL DOs regardless of specialty. Also the AOIM (Academy of Integrated Medicine) is a mix of Naturopaths, DOs, chirps, functional medicine docs etc; hope that helps!

Melatonin lamp: You are likely referring to a melatonin lamp, and yes, for some folks they do indeed work.

Question 3

ive been prescribed medicine in oregon but i have washington insurance what do i do?

Question 4

i have to travel to 2 counties in southern oregon. i am in close contact with people's ductwork. most clients are between 55-80, and my crew and my self are between 25-37. should i stop work?

Accepted Answer

No: Monitor your health carefully. Any signs of fever, fatigue, shortness of breath or have been exposed to someone with Covid, then quarantine yourself. Otherwise, use a mask, gloves and foot covers. Stay 6 ft away from customers and ask that they wear masks. Limit contact with surfaces. Wash hands frequently/ sanitize any tools, vacuums and gear that you will be bringing from house to house.

Question 5

who is the best sex therapist in seattle and/or portland?

Accepted Answer

Ask urologist. : These specialists actually refer patients commonly for sex therapy.

Question 6

can you tell me about dental assisting in beaverton/portland area?

Accepted Answer

Dental assisting: I doubt you will get any answers on this website from dentists in that area. I would suggest you speak to several dentists, local dental society and employment agencies for some information. I would start with your own dentist.

Question 7

could a recovering alcoholic/addict stay in an oxford house for free if they have no income in oregon?

Accepted Answer

Have no clue: You can access them at www.oxfordhouse.org and they have a locator where you can find houses in Oregon and link to an application.  However, I very much doubt that "for free" is available.  How many people gave you drugs or alcohol for free?  Recovery requires work and commitment, and perhaps they have some system where you can work in the house for your room/board. Good luck with your recovery.

Question 8

why would someone flag my question. if there are any good gi docs in portland? is someone against portland?

Question 9

i have to travel to 2 counties in southern oregon. i am in close contact with people's ductwork. most clients are between 55-80, and my crew and my self are between 25-37. should i stop work because of covid-19?

Accepted Answer

Covis-19: All those factors are not relevant to catching the virus. If you are able to maintain social distancing (6 ft apart) and wear masks, you can safely work.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

If you no longer : have the allergies and are not returning to Corvallis it may now be a non-issue. Take care.
