Contre la taxation des soins ostéopathiques : signez la pétition! L’Agence de revenu du Canada a annoncé que les soins ostéopathiques seront désormais assujettis à la TPS et à la TVQ. Cette décision est également appliquée par Revenu Québec dans une perspective d’harmonisation. Des centaines de milliers de Québécois et Québécoises qui recourent aux soins ostéopathiques seront pénalisés, financièrement et dans leur accès aux soins. Pourtant l’ostéopathie est un soin de santé selon le gouvernement du Québec et reconnu comme un service essentiel en cette période de pandémie. Les autres professionnels de la santé, encadrés par un ordre professionnel sont exonérés. Pour signer : https://bit.ly/3mgEoxO

When we breathe, our chest rises and falls with each breath. When our heart beats, we feel blood circulate through our pulse. But there is a 3rd rhythm in the body, called the Primary Respiratory Mechanism, that is independent of both respiration and circulation. With a little practice, we can feel this too. For years, osteopaths have been using this rhythm to help identify and treat areas of dysfunction. Below is another interesting study showing that this rythm not only exists, but can be objectively measured. Www.gorendezvous.com/245victoria
