Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a manual therapy that focuses on how muscles, joints, fascia, and internal structures work together.
​
Rather than treating symptoms alone, treatment addresses restrictions and compensations that contribute to pain and dysfunction, helping the body move more efficiently and recover naturally.
How Osteopathy Helps
Osteopathic treatment focuses on restoring balance and movement in the body so it can function more efficiently.
Treatment may help to:
​
-
Reduce pain and muscle tension
-
Improve mobility and ease of movement
-
Support better posture and body alignment
-
Improve overall function and comfort
​
Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, osteopathy seeks the underlying cause of pain or dysfunction and examines how different parts of the body work together.
If pain, stiffness, or restricted movement is affecting your daily life, osteopathy can help.

Is Osteopathic treatment covered by insurance?
Most extended health insurance plans cover osteopathic treatment. Coverage varies by provider and policy, so it is recommended to check with your insurance company for details.
​
Receipts are provided and can be submitted for reimbursement according to your plan.
​
I am a registered member of OSTCAN and the Ontario Osteopathic Association (OOA).
Members of these associations are recognized by insurance companies that offer coverage for osteopathic treatment.
​
If you have extended health benefits, using them earlier in the year can help you stay ahead of pain and avoid losing unused coverage.
