Canadian College of Osteopathy Maintains an Accomplished Faculty
The founder and director of the Waterloo, Ontario, osteopathic clinic Hope Through Fitness, Nathanael Enns holds a bachelor of science in osteopathy from the Madrid branch of the National University of Medical Sciences. Seeking to expand his credentials, Nathanael Enns is currently in pursuit of a DSc of osteopathy from the Canadian College of Osteopathy.
As part of its mission to provide a high-quality osteopathic education to students, the Canadian College of Osteopathy (CCO) maintains an experienced and distinguished faculty. As required by the Association of Traditional Osteopathic Colleges of Canada (ATOCC), each member of the CCO faculty has completed a diploma or doctorate in osteopathy and undertaken appropriate osteopathic training. In addition, all faculty members have submitted and defended in front of their fellow osteopathic manual therapists, a piece of original osteopathic research.
To ensure that faculty members remain at the forefront of their field, CCO offers several educational opportunities, including invitations to three annual international symposia hosted by the ATOCC. At these events, faculty have access to some of the leading osteopaths in the world. Renowned osteopaths and osteopathic manual therapists with whom current members of the CCO faculty have studied include Drs. Viola Frymann, Thomas Schooley, and Anne Wales.
CCO’s faculty benefits from the leadership of the college’s president, Dr. Philippe Druelle. A native of France who now resides in Montreal, Dr. Druelle is the founder of the seven European and Canadian osteopathic institutions that constitute the ATOCC.

Hiking Offers Numerous Health Benefits
With a bachelor of science in osteopathy from the National University of Medical Sciences, Nathanael Enns serves as clinic director of the Canadian-based Hope Through Fitness in Waterloo, Ontario. When not helping people improve their health and performance, Nathanael Enns spends his free time riding motorcycles, paddle boarding, and participating in CrossFit. He also enjoys hiking.
Like other aerobic exercises, hiking offers a great way to improve one’s cardiovascular fitness level. Hitting the trails on a regular basis can reduce blood pressure, improve circulation, and promote weight loss, which comes with additional benefits, including a reduced risk of developing chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. Because hiking involves traversing uneven ground, the activity also helps strengthen the body’s bones and muscles more than walking in one's town or city.
In addition to promoting physical health, hiking can help improve your overall well-being as well. Enjoying physical activities in natural environments can aid in easing people’s stress levels, assist with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, and improve sleep quality. To receive the most benefits, health experts recommend that people spend a minimum of 150 minutes each week hiking or enjoying similar outdoor physical activities.
