Program Description

We'll close with some resources to explore online and with your library.

Bio of the speaker: 

A 1995 graduate of Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Coffman has experienced an osteopathic medical career that resembles a jungle hike through the mountains emerging on clear sparkling shores. Her early career focused on emergency medicine and further developed her resourceful nature and acute care skills. In 2001, she founded Hands On Health Osteopathic Medicine and began to treat the chronic effects of injury and illness while continuing to transform the practice to include prevention of both acute and chronic health concerns. Careful to incorporate intuition into every step, Dr. Coffman accepted the notion to write and illustrate for others what she has been treating and teaching for several decades.

A mom of 3, she loves keeping up with one very fast teen, two very self-sufficient young adults, and energy-filled grandchildren. She and her husband, David, live in Missouri where they nibble wild-picked edibles and other tasty things.

She relaxes with art, acroyoga, grandchildren, and being in nature, preferably all at the same time.
