Hi Clients,

I continue to be in & out of the office less frequently until October 19th.

Slowing business down to complete graduation from the Manual Osteopathic College of Canada!

Wish me luck on all my Finals, happening next week!

Take care, everyone! 🤠

Thank you SO much to everyone who reached out regarding my last post/email!

It was my bright idea to send out an exciting offer on a Friday afternoon. Of course I woke up to 22 emails to reply to with a busy weekend planned. 😅 I know I have this dream in my heart for a reason, so I joke, but I will never complain about being too busy.

I’ll be sloooowly working through the emails and scheduling sessions based on the clinical requirements needed for my final practicum!

With the limited number of sessions available, I won’t be able to accommodate everyone, but I’ll have a waitlist for anyone I can’t fit in right away.

Thank you so much for your patience while I work through everything and schedule clients one at a time until all the available spots are filled.

Have I told you lately that I am SO grateful for all your support?! 🥹❤️

Client Communication; Scheduling Update

I currently have 8 hourly appointments available the week of September 21 and 10 hourly appointments left remaining the following week, before I take October 1–17 off for personal time, a study break and the final stretch of my MOT diploma!

Finals are October 15–16!

I normally schedule appointment requests first come, first served, but I’m needing to make a short term exception.

As I get closer to my final practicum, I need to practice bringing all five MOT modules together into a complete 90 minute MOT session (including the initial intake, assessment, treatment flow and reassessment).

So, from September 21–October 1, I’m temporarily prioritizing clients interested in booking a full 90 minute Student MOT-only Session over regular RMT/MFR appointments and RMT appointments with MOT techniques incorporated as needed.

I know this may impact some treatment plans, so I wanted to give a heads up and communicate that this is a temporary change as I get very close to graduation!

Full MOT sessions may include techniques from my MOT training such as osteoarticulation, myofascial remodeling, craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation and manual lymphatic drainage, depending on the assessment and individual treatment plan.

And just to reassure my regular clients, RMT and MFR aren’t going anywhere! I’ll continue offering both after graduation, along side manual osteopathy.

If you’re interested in being part of this final stage of my MOT training, send me an email and let me know! I’ll connect privately with more details about these sessions.

3 more months until finals and I am still locked in with top marks and loving every opportunity to learn more. The finish line is getting closer!!

Exam week is here! I’ve finished my written portion and have my practical exam this evening! Feeling confident heading into this one..

After exam completion, that wraps up my Involuntary Mechanisms module, which focused on Cranial Osteopathy and Manual Lymphatic Therapy.

Cranial Osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on approach that works with the subtle movements of the head and facial bones, fascial membranes that support the brain and protect the spinal cord, and cerebrospinal fluid to help support the body’s natural ability to regulate and heal.

Manual Lymphatic Therapy uses light, rhythmic techniques to encourage healthy lymphatic flow, helping reduce congestion, support immune function, and promote overall wellness.

After exams, I’ll be spending two full days in class learning half of our Visceral Manipulation techniques. This approach focuses on the mobility and function of the body’s internal organs and their surrounding connective tissues. Restrictions within the viscera can affect movement, posture, circulation, and comfort throughout the body, so treatment aims to restore healthy motion and improve overall function.

It’s hard to believe how much we’ve covered in such a short amount of time!
Finishing this module strong before diving into the next one. Thank you to everyone who has allowed me to practice! The feedback that requests more Manual Osteopathy for subsequent therapy is very encouraging! 🤠

Have a beautiful week everyone!

Client Reminder: New treatment rates are now in effect as of June 1, 2026.

30 minutes – $70
45 minutes – $85
60 minutes – $105
75 minutes – $130
90 minutes – $155
120 minutes – $200

June is fully booked, and I am unable to accept new appointment requests for July or August at this time. Both months are nearly fully booked, with limited availability due to my children’s summer break. I will post here if I have any last minute/short notice openings to see more clients!

Regular business hours will resume in September 2026. I will post an update when my calendar reopens and additional appointments become available.😊

Thank you for your understanding, patience, and continued support during this busy season. ❤️

Hi Clients,

I am currently booking into late May and early June. Online booking has been temporarily paused to prioritize availability for follow up treatments, and allow flexibility for schedule adjustments as we move into the busier summer months.

Effective June 1, 2026, updated treatment rates will be as follows:

30 minutes – $70
45 minutes – $85
60 minutes – $105
75 minutes – $130
90 minutes – $155
120 minutes – $200

A further rate adjustment is anticipated in Fall 2026, following the completion of my Manual Osteopathic Therapy diploma program.

At that time, I will be a dual-recognized provider under the Canadian Massage and Manual Osteopathic Therapists Association. Clients with eligible coverage may be able to submit claims for Manual Osteopathic Therapy services, in addition to Registered Massage Therapy, depending on individual insurance plans.

Once my summer schedule has been finalized, I will provide an update regarding availability and whether online booking will reopen for July and August. (These months are typically booked directly through email/waitlist, as appointment times, particularly evenings and weekends, remain in high demand and often best suited for short notice availability.)

Thank you for your continued trust and support.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions,

Kelsey Byers, RMT

I’ve officially finished my Advanced Myofascial Remodelling Module with over 100 hours of hands on practicum, clinical research & 2 case studies, with top marks on assignments and exams!

Myofascial Release is a big passion of mine, so I really loved learning more assessments and integrating new techniques into my treatments.

Next up, I’m moving into Involuntary Mechanisms, where I’m learning more about cerebrospinal fluid, assessing the body’s primary rhythm, working with fascial diaphragms, occipital cranial base and lumbosacral techniques, dural tube releases, and balancing the neurocranium bones.

Cranial Osteopathic Therapy is a really cool shift into more subtle, nervous system based work, and I’m excited to keep practicing starting this week! If you are interested in learning more or experiencing cranial sacral therapy, let me know!

Have a great week ahead,

Kelsey

Organizing new techniques and building exam & clinic recall at the same time.

This is the kind of momentum I’m showing up for!
