Manual Osteopathy is a holistic form of treatment that addresses the underlying cause(s) of pain and discomfort. It is inquisitive, gentle, non-invasive and works in harmony with the body’s subtle rhythms. Osteopathy views the body as a unit whose parts are inseparable. Its goal is to restore equilibrium within each of the various systems (muscular, lymphatic, cranial, visceral) and promote overall vitality.
Manual Osteopathy may be effective in the treatment of the following:
Massage therapy is the assessment and hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints. Massage therapy is a clinically-oriented healthcare option that helps alleviate the discomfort associated with every day occupational stresses, muscular over-use and many chronic pain conditions. It has the ability to relieve pain and improve mood.
CranioSacral Therapy is a form of assessment and treatment that utilizes a gentle, hands-on approach. Using a soft touch the practitioner releases restrictions to improve the functioning of the central nervous system.
Patients are advised to wear loose-fitting, stretchy clothing.
Reiki treats the whole person including the mind and spirit. It has the potential to create many beneficial effects including relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.
The Perrin Technique TM
The Perrin Technique is a gentle osteopathic treatment designed to support those living with chronic fatigue (CFS/ME), fibromyalgia and long COVID. It works by stimulating the lymphatic system, aiding natural detoxification, and reducing inflammation caused by toxin build-up around the brain and spinal cord.
As a licensed practitioner, I offer a 90-minute in-person consultation (no treatment is provided) to review your history, explain the technique, and answer questions. This appointment includes an exam of the spine, abdomen, head, and chest.* I’ll demonstrate self-care techniques and exercises, and check that you’re doing them correctly. Following the initial consultation, treatment continues with a weekly series of 30-minute appointments. Keeping up with your daily self-care routine plays a key role in supporting the effectiveness of the treatment.
Have questions? I’m happy to help. Please get in touch to book your initial consultation.
* Please note: Written consent is required for all assessment and treatment involving breast and chest wall tissue. Consent may be withdrawn at any time, no questions asked. A chaperone is welcome at any appointment.

I am a graduate of The Sutherland-Chan School of Massage Therapy and have practiced as a Registered Massage Therapist since 2014. I graduated from The Southern Ontario College of Osteopathy in 2019.
CranioSacral Therapy and its inherent respect for the body is the cornerstone of all my treatments. My additional training as a Manual Osteopath and Reiki Practitioner allows me to view my patients’ complaints through a holistic lens.
I pride myself on my ability to listen to my patients, keep an open mind and do my utmost to understand their goals and concerns. I incorporate assessment into every treatment and enjoy explaining (in layperson’s terms) how the body works.
In my spare time I daydream about Berlin (my ‘other’ favourite city), listen to vinyl and spend as much time as possible with my wife and stepdaughter.
