Body Mechanik

Body Mechanik is treatment aimed to help your body heal itself. She discovered osteopathy during her undergrad studies.

Amanda is a University of Waterloo graduate currently attending the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy, in her third year. Currently classified as a Manual Rehabilitative Therapist Amanda is excited by the way the body was able to heal itself and the only apparatus she needed were her hands. Amanda is enthusiastic to be able to use the body’s anatomy and physiology to create individualized treatments based on what her patients need.

As an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner, Amanda completed my 4 year education at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy which is a 4 year, 4400 hour program that includes 1000 hours of supervised student clinic. She is also in good standing with OSTCAN which is fully recognized by the insurance industry. I founded Body Mechanik so that I could create a clinic that was based on my philosophy of practical training combined with my belief in my patients and their ability to heal themselves.

As an avid ringette player (competing at the National level and winning a gold medal at the Canada Winter Games), I coached younger teams and grew my interest in human movement. I enrolled in Kinesiology at the University of Waterloo and during this time I began personal training as well as coaching fitness classes while continuing to coach ringette. After finishing my Honours Bachelor Degree in Kinesiology I enrolled in the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy. I have vast knowledge in anatomy, physiology, biomechanics and manual osteopathy.

Born and raised in Centre Wellington, my husband José and I enjoy living and working in the community. In my spare time, I enjoy everything our country property has to offer, hiking, working out with friends and family time with my nieces and nephews. I believe it’s important to give back to the community and support local business, teams and events.

Steve is a graduate of the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy, a 4 year education which is a 4400 hour program that includes 1000 hours of supervised student clinic and is an OSCTAN member in good standing. It is here where he received a comprehensive education in anatomy, physiology and osteopathic principles.

He worked as an electrician for many years, until his curiosity about holistic wellness and the intricacies of the human body got the better of him, and he found a new path toward osteopathy. Steve applies the problem-solving skills he developed in his trade to help his patients find health, and alleviate dysfunction by identifying the root cause of the problem.

Steve was born and raised in Centre Wellington and is excited to be part of the team at Body Mechanik. When he’s not at the clinic, he enjoys country life with his two energetic daughters and lovely wife Melissa. You’ll find him gardening, dabbling in animal husbandry, and perfecting his beef jerky recipe.

Meredith received her osteopathic training from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy in Hamilton where she completed a 4 year education which is a 4400 hour program that includes 1000 hours of supervised student clinic and is an OSCTAN member in good standing.

Meredith was drawn to osteopathy after experiencing treatment herself as a patient and seeing the difference it made in her and her children’s lives. With a background in health, movement and hands-on work as a certified birth doula, yoga teacher and Thai Yoga Massage practitioner, she felt that osteopathy offered the next step in acquiring a deeper understanding of the human body and its ability to self-heal and self-regulate. Meredith aims to meet patients where they are and foster safe and positive experiences.

Meredith has lived and worked in Centre Wellington for twenty years and is proud to call this beautiful community home. She is mom to three amazing daughters and two rascally boy cats, and enjoys hiking in the Gorge, trying out new recipes, and talking about all things osteopathy!

Amid the chaos of everyday life, quiet moments aren’t just a luxury—they’re a necessity. 🌿✨ Taking time to pause, breathe, and just be helps reset the mind, refuel the soul, and bring clarity to the noise. Prioritize your peace.

As Osteopathic Manual Practitioners, we take a holistic approach to assessing and treating the body. Rather than focusing solely on the area where symptoms are present, we address the body as a whole to ensure all layers of tissue are in balance. By restoring harmony throughout the body, we help facilitate the resolution of symptoms and support overall well-being.

03/07/2025

At Body Mechanik we want every client to understand how they can be an active part of health care. As practitioners we share our findings from treatment and explain how this is contributing to the symptoms the patient may be experiencing.

Osteopathic treatment can make a real difference with:
- Arthritis

We are very excited to welcome Rayne to our team starting January 3rd, 2023.

Rayne is an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner whose treatments are covered if you have extended health care benefits for Osteopathy.

She will be in the office the following times:
❄️Tuesdays 10am-4pm
❄️Thursday 1-6pm
❄️Fridays 10am-4pm

Here is a little more about Rayne:

Rayne’s study of the anatomy of the human body and the benefits of motion began when she traveled to India to study yoga teacher training. It was there that her appreciation for a holistic approach to healing the body and the awareness of the close relationship between movement and health flourished. She always knew that she wanted to help and heal others, which led her to discover and fall in love with Osteopathy, and its natural outlook to healing.

Rayne attended a rigorous 4.5 year masters program at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy (CAO), where she acquired over 4200 educational hours and approximately 1000 clinical hours. She is proud to uphold the standards of practice and be a member of the OSTCAN association. It is at the CAO that she learned the principles and practice of classical osteopathy as designed by Andrew Taylor Still, the founder of Osteopathy. Her studies and learning will never cease as there is so much to know and understand about the human body and its intricacies.

Born and raised in the heart of Muskoka, her love for nature began at a young age. She continues to appreciate nature and its wonders through gardening, hiking, canoeing, swimming in the lakes and dipping her toes in the beautiful Elora Gorge.

After 4 years of year round school, last week marked my last day. It has been a wild and crazy ride that included 20 different Airbnb’s, over 105,000km on my car, partnering in a business, starting my own business, building a clinic, late nights and very early mornings. Huge thanks to my family and friends who have supported me through this! . . #schoolsoutforever #thecrazinessisover
