Isn't it great that osteopathic services are covered by most health care plans in Ontario!?

Find Osteopathy under the " Alternative Health" section of your healthcare package alongside massage, physiotherapy, chiropractics and acupuncture.

Book an appointment to find out how an Osteopathic practitioner can be a part of your healthcare team.

In 2019, the World Health Organization began to recognize chronic pain as a disease rather than just a symptom of something else.

Now hold onto that thought while also considering that the Oxford Dictionary definition of disease is a disorder of structure or function in a human, animal, or plant, especially one that has a known cause and a distinctive group of symptoms, signs, or anatomical changes.

Does this reflect your lived experience?

What if we could move through our lives with an understanding of the relationship between structural integrity and functional capacity in our selves and then allow that knowledge to continually inform our understanding of the pain we experience?

Would you feel more engaged with your sense of well being? Would you have a greater ability to check inward to know whether you need some rest or perhaps feel a greater sense of knowing and control in your daily life?

Osteopathic Manual Medicine examines these relationships, that of structure and function, as a basis for health and well being.

Your body can heal. You can be well.

For the next 2 weeks I will be treating babies at the clinic on Wednesdays. All babies welcome from newborn up to 18 months.

Osteopathic care is a wonderful and gentle approach to supporting your littles ones!

Some of the most common reasons parents seek osteopathic care for babies are:
- colic
- flat head
- head turning
- latch
- falls and bumps

We keep you moving.

Osteopathic Manual Therapy is essential to me and my family and we are so looking forward to being able to receive treatment again once the province moves into Stage 2 of the reopening framework.

The clinic will once again be open first week of July (fingers crossed).

All the best!

OMPs work to maintain, improve and restore the normal physiological function of body structures and systems, which enhances the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Osteopathic manual care can help manage chronic or acute pain of the pelvis, low back, knee, shoulders, jaw and neck. OMPs can support your recovery post-injury or post-surgery. Osteopathic manual care can reduce tension that may contribute to complaints like respiratory difficulties, headaches, digestive irregularities and sinus pain. Our goal is to help you return to health and normal activities.
