​“Honorary Prathēt thai rūam lư̄at nư̄a chāt chư̄a thai.” These words which translates to “Thailand embraces to its bosom all people of Thai blood” were yesterday sung after the Bermuda National anthem during the College of Natural Health Sciences Bermuda’s second annual graduation and award ceremony. Diplomas and certificates in osteopathic manual therapy and osteopathic wellness studies were handed out to four international students who are all from Thailand. Mrs. Myrtle ‘Sally’ Perinchief OBE received an honorary doctorate degree in natural health science in recognition of her transformative work in Bermudian society as a community activist, charitable worker, and outstanding citizen. Ms. Cosette Durrant, an early childhood educator veteran, also received an honorary doctorate degree in natural health science in recognition of her sterling career that spans over four decades of service.
In her keynote address, president of CNHS-BDA Dr. Delcina Bean-Burrows recounted how Thai students had persevered through language barriers, full time work commitments, and late-night study sessions in a gallant effort to achieve their goals. “Even though it was hard for me, I never gave up” said Natthaporn Jutharlee of Siam Spa. “Anatomy and physiology were especially hard because English is not my first language. My family and friends encouraged me along the way and today I am so happy to graduate from the program.”
In July the graduates will take the Bermuda Osteopathic Board Exam [BOBE] in order to become registered level one osteopathic manual therapists.

What is Osteopathy? Osteopathy is a complete care health profession that specializes in the treatment of the musculoskeletal system as a means to restore health and to promote wellness. Osteopaths use a combination of manual techniques (Soft Tissue Therapy, Muscle Energy Techniques, Joint Mobilization, Myofascial Release, and physical modalities (Thermal/Cold Therapy, Ultrasound Therapy) in order to bring the body back to a cohesive whole.

​What are the two branches of Osteopathy? Two branches of Osteopathy (Osteopathic Medicine & Osteopathic Manual Therapy) emerged when Dr. John Martin Littlejohn, a student of Dr. Still, founded the British School of Osteopathy in London in 1917, and subsequently the Journal of Osteopathy, which is seen to be the laying down of the scientific foundations for Osteopathy in Europe. 
Other persons such as Paul Gény a physiotherapist, teamed up with an English osteopath named Thomas G. Dummer, and founded the l’École française d’Ostéopathie. Their aim was to provide non-doctors the opportunity to learn osteopathic techniques. These two distinguished gentlemen are credited for advancing what is now known as European-style Osteopathy throughout Europe, Asia, Canada, and many other countries throughout the world.

What type of training program in Osteopathy does CNHS-BDA offer? CNHS-BDA offers training in European-style Osteopathy by way of an integrated format which combines e-learning with practical training. At the completion of the program students earn a Master of Science degree in Osteopathy.
​What is Naturopathy? Naturopathy is a holistic system of healing in which different natural methods are administered to promote health and restoration within the body. Naturopathy treats the person as a whole by using treatments that place emphasis on using the body's self-healing mechanisms to keep the body in harmony with nature. The naturopath tries to balance the diseased person, regardless of what the person suffers from, as in conditions that might be otherwise labeled in conventional terms as specific diseases. Although the term 'Naturopathy' has been coined in recent years, its basis and many of the methods used in treatment are more than 2,000 years old, causing many to posit that when life began so did Naturopathy.

​
What are the three main Naturopathic Personnel Classifications? Naturopathic personnel consist of three classifications: Naturopathic Physicians, Naturopathic Doctors and Certified Naturopaths/Naturopathic Therapists.

What type of training program in Naturopathy does CNHS-BDA offer? CNHS-BDA offers training in Naturopathic Therapies by way of an integrated format which combines e-learning with practical training.
