25.01.2022 The liver, the second largest organ of the human body, is the master of clearing waste, of metabolism, of producing and storing nutrients and hormones. It’s incredible all that it can do for us. Many conditions can often just be related to poor liver function, migraines, some skin conditions, indigestion, PMS. Did you know that in Traditional Chinese Medicine, the liver is associated with the emotions of anger, anxiety and frustration? Have you noticed personality changes after treating a patient with liver problems?

24.01.2022 Are you seeing kids in your practice? If so, did you know that behavioural problems can sometimes be linked to ear problems? Ill be covering this and more in my upcoming membership program so please make sure to register your interest and be the first to know by clicking here: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/exp-of-int-online-/

23.01.2022 One way to get loyal clients is to create trust and meaningful rapport. Feeling confident in your approach is one sure-fire way to do so. In fact, I have a whole interview with Expert Rebecca Lange on how to do just that! Come and join my monthly membership program so you can learn too! Check here for more info: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-m

23.01.2022 Just before life as we knew it changed, this happened I cant quite believe it but hey sometimes you need a reminder that what you love doing is also appreciated by the incredible industry I am a part of! Thank you to all that voted

23.01.2022 Some say that because many of us are now working remotely we cant do physical examination anymore. Well... sorry to say but thats wrong! Its just a different way of getting your information and I can show you how. Register your interest here: https://bit.ly/325c3lS

23.01.2022 Im up early, have been sipping coffee and working on content for the upcoming membership. It really lights me up to talk about this stuff - I had to take a little break from writing to share! Each month we deep dive into a different body system - refreshing the anatomy and physiology, physical examination techniques (and possible presentations that would indicate it necessary), red flags, when to refer/treat/both. Our focus:... 'Lets Get Started; - what equipment do I need? Vital signs (yes, they are VITAL!), relationship building, information recording/tracking, Respiratory system Abdominal Musculosketal Neurological Head - mouth/throat, lymphatic assessment of the head & neck, facial analysis Head (cont) - ear assessment, thyroid Cardiovascular - peripheral pulses, heart sounds and anthropometrics Pulling it all together Its going to be so fun, leisurely, informative and a way to really connect - especially at this time in history. I am throwing it all in here, I am showing up, and pricing it to be a no brainer for you. I am so excited. If you are not already, please jump on the list to hear about the door opening - which is MONDAY! https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/exp-of-int-online-m

22.01.2022 A pretty accurate image to express how I am feeling about going ALL IN and just focusing on my area of genius. I love teaching physical examination and I cant wait for you to see what Ive been working on. Im even including brand new modules on the Cardiovascular and Musculoskeletal systems which Ive not taught to Praccies before.

22.01.2022 Do you have a mane like Rapunzel? Or not so much? Hair can give us vital signs and clues that can then be further questioned or investigated. We can also have the hair tested for mineral imbalances and heavy metal toxicity e.g. Interclinical, and incompatibilities e.g. the Hair 500 item test Ask if there have been any changes? Is this normal for you? Has it always been like this?... Want to learn more? Join my membership program starting September 21. https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-/

Join here: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-/

19.01.2022 Here’s a beautiful example of an abdominal auscultation. Listen to bowel sounds, we are looking for hyper or hypoactivity. You’ll hear squeaks, groans and tickles, some normal and some less. Have you done this in a physical examination and know what to look out for?

19.01.2022 Did you know that if your patient has a pre-existing heart condition, they SHOULD have a digital heart monitor? Find out more snippets of info in my upcoming membership program: https://bit.ly/325c3lS

18.01.2022 As life slowly gets back to normal, don’t forget to reach out to those friends that you haven’t heard of in a while. And if you are struggling to keep up with motivation after what has been a difficult time for many, tell them and maybe become accountability buddies. There’s nothing better to get that motivation fuel back into you.

18.01.2022 We often hear about the skin being the largest organ so just imagine how many snippets of wisdom you could get from a patients skin conditions!

18.01.2022 This is why I’m so passionate about teaching physical examination, I know how life-changing learning these techniques can be. Don’t underestimate how much value you will bring to your patients by doing these techniques and feeling confident with them. You are all amazing!

17.01.2022 When palpating the abdomen, we are looking for protrusions? lumps? bumps? tenderness? Obvious discomfort/pain? Record your findings. Has there been any change?

17.01.2022 Think you cant check pulse over Zoom? Think again because you totally can! Normal pulse range for an adult is between 60 - 100bpm. Ill be covering this and so much more in my upcoming membership program. Check it out here to register your interest:... https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/exp-of-int-online-/ See more

17.01.2022 IBS develops in as many as 1 in 5 Australians at some point in their lifetime, and is twice as common in women as it is in men. Many of these patients end up walking through our doors for help and more often than not, they may never have been abdominally examined. IBS is such a blanket term for so many symptoms, by doing an abdominal exam, you can get much more information about what might be going on.

16.01.2022 Womens pain is something the medical system chronically underestimates, the statistics are horrifying. Tomorrow is the start of Womens Health Week, a nationwide campaign to promote awareness and equality. Find out more here: https://www.womenshealthweek.com.au/

16.01.2022 Do you know what to look for? If not, Ill be launching a membership program soon that you might be interested in! Click here to register your interest:... https://bit.ly/325c3lS See more

15.01.2022 When assessing weight, you probably know my thoughts on BMI... A Waist/Hip ratio is a much better indicator and better yet theres only one possible measurement spot for hips so its a little easier. And for waists pick one of the measurement options!

14.01.2022 Wise words from a fellow Kiwi... Confidence is the word I often hear from past participants of my trainings and thats so exciting!

13.01.2022 Have you heard of Murphy’s sign and do you feel comfortable regarding what to do? It’s a great technique to be able to detect any pain and discomfort in the Upper Right Quadrant. If you find there is tenderness, this may indicate cholecystitis or some red flag regarding the liver and the gallbladder.

12.01.2022 Behind the scenes of today 'expert insight interview' with @pam_naturopath. Today we are talking about building rapport and trust with people with varying degrees of adrenal fatigue (the struggle is real right?!). We will also discuss the physical exams (on and off line) that Pam loves. Pam's a legend.... This interview, and 10 others are all in the up coming membership - check it out here: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/exp-of-int-online-m

12.01.2022 If there’s anything we can learn from 2020, it’s that we are definitely out of our comfort zones! Learning to become ok with the uncertainty and vulnerable when we aren’t, that’s the juicy stuff. That’s what Brene Brown has studied in her leadership research. So remember that when things get hard, this could be what gets you thinking and behaving in ways that you never thought possible.

11.01.2022 Is assessing Respiratory Rates part of your practice? You can assess Respiratory Rate simply by observing your patient. Are they pursing their lips? Can you hear their breathing? Want to know whats Normal? Respiration should be relaxed, regular, soundless and involuntary.... Want to know more? Ive just launched my EARLY BIRD discount for my Lets Get Physical Membership Training. For just $79/month, Ill be teaching you all about the tips and tricks on how to do a proper physical examination for your patients, what tools to use and the confidence to be able to identify red flags and refer when required. Join me here: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-/ Early Bird offer is only available for a short time and spaces are limited.

11.01.2022 One of the things that we will be covering in the upcoming membership are cases. What physicals to do, whats important, whats not so important and how to fit it in. Check out the following video I filmed after seeing an initial consultation. I cant wait to share this information with you guys, now is the time to take your physical examination knowledge to the next level.

11.01.2022 Are you showing your patients your sanitising practice? Have a look at my video for quick tips and tricks on how to use your equipment in the safest possible way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76Rv_13YZNU

11.01.2022 ...Dry eyes. Did you know dry eyes are often a sign of Vitamin A and EFA deficiency? Hands up if you did and no shame if you didn't. This is what I'm here for!

10.01.2022 When I teach physical examination skills at college it brings me so much joy. I can feel tired prior, and once I get into things, I feel so energised. It has been such a privilege to be able to take the 'how to's', and still teach them, but also refine the whole model and add heart - relationship building and depth to it (humans are my jam). I want everyone to have access to this important part of clinical practice - you AND your client. The world is so weird right now, the...re is lockdown, uncertainty, but the thing I am certain of - is that the world WILL open up again. We WILL show up for our people. There is a fierceness that we have for our clients, and our profession. We are helpers, healers, listeners, information gatherers. This is why I have priced the upcoming membership at $79 monthly (early bird only), and thrown EVERYTHING in it. I was uploading and creating last night, and I felt so inspired by what I have to share. What it will mean for you guys at this time. In other news, I have watched this video so many times, each time I have welled up (sometimes completely ugly cried). If you need inspiration to keep going today - I hope this helps. https://youtu.be/sxnlvwprf_c If you are ready to join the membership, take advantage of the early bird, you can join here: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-t The biggest love xxx

08.01.2022 They say the eyes are the windows to your soul Could your tongue be the window to your health? We can tell so much from a tongue! As we are assessing the tongue, we look to see what corresponding body system might be implicated, we look at coating, colour, shape OR even...... Tongue doesnt stick out straight? Maybe a cranial nerve issue Learn all about the secret language of tongues in my upcoming membership! Doors are now open! Check this link for my Early Bird special valid until Monday only. https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-/

08.01.2022 The order of our physical assessment techniques is a little different when doing our abdominal assessment. You'll need to listen to the different sounds and gargles of the digestive system before you start percussion and palpation to not disturb what's naturally occurring. Feeling confident doing this assessment will help you get a sense of what could be going on for your patient and as you Hippocrates said, it all starts in the gut.

07.01.2022 Did you know that I have lined up a number of experts in different fields to interview about how they use physical exam in their particular demographic, and how they build rapport with their peeps? This is all included in the membership! I'm so excited about this - short, snappy interviews, where you get tons of USEABLE info for your practice.... Honestly, this is going to be so fun and beneficial for you guys. Register your interest here: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/exp-of-int-online-m

07.01.2022 The Most Comprehensive Physical Exam Training You can Get. Why This? Why Now? Why $79 a month?*... For the price of half an initial consultation, or what you would usually pay for a webinar, you get a lecture, group mentoring, expert interview, emergency feedback for tough cases in a dedicated Facebook group, hours of resource material on every single body system you will ever need... ...and compared to the $2000 for the uni/college subject or the $499 for my course, I wanted to make it so accessible that no patient needs to go without a thorough confident physical exam from their natural health practitioner.

07.01.2022 One of the most common questions I get is What equipment do I need? and the answer might surprise you!

Grab your early bird discount for only $79/month!! Hurry its ending TOMORROW! See here for more info: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-/

06.01.2022 I am giving away three free spots to the physical exam training membership for free to three Victorian praccies. Last night in the natupreneur hub there was a conversation about how tough Victorians are finding things. Now this is no new news to me, or any of us.... The lockdown is HARD. I am not pretending to understand how this feels. It made me sad. Then it made me determined. My Next Thought - 'What Can I Do To Help?' See when I released the 'Physical Exam in the online Consult' webinar earlier this year, I donated 100% of the earnings to the Crisis kitchen Bali for a period of time. A lot of you jumped on it - and fed a lot of hungry people. It felt amazing. I was helping. These are unprecedented times, so let's do something unprecedented... I am taking nominations. Please get in touch with me - nominate a Victorian that you think could use the Physical Exam training membership. I will then contact them, and pop them on the list. Done. You can email me, PM me on insta or facebook, heck, you can send a pigeon with a note if you want! Big love to all oh, and if you still have grabbed the early bird pricing for the membership, it ends tomorrow night: https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/lets-get-physical-/

06.01.2022 It is said that 1 in 5 Australians experience some Irritable bowel syndrome symptoms during their lifetime. Probably not a huge surprise looking at how our diets have evolved. It’s also a very common reason for people to seek help with dealing with the symptoms. All treatment plans need to take into account each individual patient as IBS can be due to a myriad of causes. Wouldn't it be great if you could do an abdominal examination on these patients and get an understanding of which part of their digestive systems isn’t functioning optimally?

05.01.2022 Never before has my temperature been taken as often and for good reason! Do you know how to properly take your client's temperature? Register your interest to learn this and much more:... https://katiebarronnaturopath.lpages.co/exp-of-int-online-/ See more

05.01.2022 When learning about Physical Examination, it's the 20/80 principle. Spend 20% of the time learning and 80% of the time practising. This is how all these exams will feel like second nature. If you are feeling any blocks, send me a message, let's see how we can get you feeling confident.

05.01.2022 Reflexes are a great way to see if someone has any nerve or muscle damage. Do you test reflexes in your clinic? Learn about this and more in my upcoming membership program: https://bit.ly/325c3lS

05.01.2022 Today, we start looking into the head and thyroid assessments. We are covering all from ears, lymph nodes to thyroid. We all know how important it can be to detect any abnormalities when taking a case. If you are interested in joining the Let's Get Physical Membership program, send me a message for more info.

05.01.2022 NO THANK YOU KS for joining me and helping me spread the world of physical examination to all you praccies out there!

04.01.2022 Brittle Nails could be a sign of contact dermatitis, trauma to nail bed, idiopathic, thyroid issues, protein deficiency, ageing... How confident are you with noticing red flags in your patients nails?

04.01.2022 If anyone needs me, I'll be drinking tea out of my EPIC mug I gifted myself from @earthloveceramics (and ignoring all the things I need to do tomorrow). Happy Xmas Eve peeps!!!

02.01.2022 This year has been so realistically just being alive through this feels LIKE A LOT. Whilst its great to have a day like today to raise awareness for mental health, this isnt a once a year thing, this needs to be constant. Check on your friend, even the one that looks put together, check on your neighbours, family, colleagues but most importantly check with yourself and know that even if they or you arent ok right now, asking for help is the best thing you can do.

01.01.2022 Lets talk half-moons or lunulae. Do you know what to look for? Lunulae are the half-moons present at the base of the nail, near the cuticle. ... Absence of these on some fingers or all is a general sign of vitality in the patient. How often are you checking your patients' nails in a consult? See more
