What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a holistic and non-invasive form of manual therapy that uses gentle palpation to assess, treat and restore health to the body’s system as whole. The goal of an Osteopathic treatment is to work with the individual's health, and to rekindle the body's capacity to self-heal and self-regulate, helping to restore natural motion to all tissues of the body. The body can automatically adapt to different demands, and maintain itself in a state of balance and harmony, ithe body is able to recover from or adapt to many of life’s challenges, even traumatic events and injuries!

However, the body's resources for coping are not endless. When overstressed and overcompensating, the body's own resources for repair become exhausted, and require assistance. That's where Osteopathy comes in! Osteopathy treats the whole person, and not just an area of the body causing symptoms. It seeks to understand and treat the cause of the underlying problem, rather than simply treating the symptoms.

About Our Practitioner

Outdoor Flower Garden Plant

My educational journey in healthcare started at Ontario Tech University where I obtained a Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology, while competing as a varsity Lacrosse athlete. From there, I obtained a Masters of Osteopathic Manipulative Sciences over a four year, intensive program at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy.

Through my studies in Osteopathic Therapy, I became passionate about exploring the relationship between structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) of the human body, and it’s capacity to self-heal and self-regulate! An Osteopathic Manual Practitioner uses the soft tissue structures to alleviate restriction of motion, which ultimately improves nerve communication, arterial venous, and lymphatic circulation. The goal of Osteopathic Treatment is to get to the root cause of your dis-ease.

Through my educational and athletic experience , my treatments are backed with an extensive understanding of the human body, and are delivered with a sense of compassion. My ultimate goal is to help my patients get back to the things they love and aid them in their own individual journey to health & wellness!

Outside of my practice, I enjoy spending time outside, between camping, biking or being on the water, alongside my dog, Waylon!
