I have completed a 5 year training program in Osteopathy plus an extra year to complete a research paper and I continue to learn and attend courses!

Before your next appointment, ask this one question: Are you an OAO member?

OAO members have agreed to uphold a Code of Ethics, meet stringent Standards of Practice, and pursue ongoing continuing education throughout their careers.

In a profession that is not yet regulated in Ontario, membership in a professional association is one of the strongest signals of accountability you can find.

It is not normal to experience pain, clicking or locking in the jaw with opening and closing. You may be living with this without realizing there is help.

TMJ can create stress and tension in the whole system - it can create neck or low back pain and affect your breathing, chewing, speaking, swallowing or your digestion as well. Furthermore, dysfunction in the jaw could be having an effect on your posture and contributing to pain in other areas. It can work both ways -- if the jaw is the main problem, your neck, back and shoulders are adapting around it, but in can be that the jaw is adapting to tension somewhere else in the body.

By conducting an assessment, we can figure out a treatment plan to get it sorted out.

So fortunate to have some amazing produce available in my local area. I have not had success with growing veggies so I appreciate our local farmers! Picked up kale, romaine, red butter lettuce, cabbage, beets, green beans, new potatoes, spring onions, and some patty-pan zucchini right within a 5 mile radius of my 🏠.

To “find the health” is an interesting distinction most health care providers focus entirely on the problem. In osteopathic treatment the approach is to support the mechanisms that maintain health in the body. These mechanisms have the capacity to maintain and restore heath.

The legacy of Dr. Andrew Still, a visionary founder of osteopathy, lives on. His groundbreaking approach laid the foundation for modern osteopathic practice, focusing on the interrelationship between the body's structure and function.

His legacy lives on through the dedicated work of OAO Members who continue to promote health and wellness.

In an osteopathic assessment, the practitioner observes the body and detects areas of tension or dysfunction. Based on this assessment, the treatment gently resolves these areas of tension. This relaxes the nervous system and balances body systems, which can have a significant effect on how you feel.

Just watched this insightful video and I’m definitely getting my hands on this book! Hormone fluctuations impact more than just menopause. From brain fog to joint pain to cardiovascular issues, they can affect our bodies in various ways. Luckily, osteopathic treatment offers holistic relief by optimizing our nervous system, muscles, joints, and hormones. While it won’t stop menopause, it’s a valuable tool for navigating this transition.
