Karen Osano, Patient Advocate/ AdvocateHolistic Health Coach, RN
About
With my experience in Western Medicine, (an Emergency Room Nurse for 15 years), I am knowledgeable about many health issues from a medical standpoint, but rather focus on the psychological n alternative ways of dealing with stress. Stress is usually the number one cause of any medical problems or symptoms and I focus on targeting the symptoms on basic lifestyle changes and target on behavior- what is actually causing the symptoms without the use of costly, toxic medication or having to seek out a physician. I feel my approach is easy to understand, non-threatening, and less costly in treating simple medical concerns. I focus on self-care!
I am a people pleaser and understand the need to take control of one’s own health in the least costly way through listening and understanding the patient’s busy lifestyle, stressors, and medical history instead of relying on the busy emergency rooms or urgent care. Together we can focus on the whole person and target the cause of the problem and use alternative or simple ways to eliminate such symptoms with a plan of self-care in learning how to be in charge of one’s health. The challenge is to be flexible and to find a personalized care plan for each individual and their concerns/problems by the use of other modalities such as yoga, deep breathing, aromatherapy, massage, etc. Each individual is unique. Depending on how motivated the individual cares about their own health, the better outcome with lesser symptoms. It not only benefits the individuals self confidence n self-control, but lessens the strain of our overcrowded and costly medical facilities.
