Osteopathy
Manual Osteopathy is a hands-on pracitce that uses manual therapy to stimulate the inherent healing mechanisms of the body. A Manual Osteopath understands that the body is a dynamic unit of function, which means that she will treat the patient from a holistic viewpoint. Becuase of this, you may be surprised to note that your pracitioner focuses on a part of your body that is far removed from the problem area. The greater perspective of the holistic approach looks at what other sturctures, tissues, or obstructions are influencing the area where the pain or discomfort is felt. By removing obstructions of the flow of blood, lymph, and nerve conduction, Osteopathy aims to promote self-healing of the body.
Athletic Therapy
Certified Athletic Therapists are best known for their quick-thinking on-field emergency care of professional and elite athletes. The first to respond when someone gets hurt, they are experts at injury assessment and rehabilitation. It’s that same mix of on-site care and active rehabilitation skills that makes Athletic Therapists so effective in treating the musculoskeletal (muscles, bones, and joints) injuries of all Canadians, whether on the field or in the clinic.
Athletic therapists adhere to the Sports Medicine Model of care. They treat a wide range of patients, from kids with concussions to seniors recovering from hip replacement surgery, using various manual therapies, modalities, exercise prescription and even bracing and taping. The treatment varies but the objective doesn’t: an Athletic Therapist's goal is to help clients return to their usual activities, whether that means playing competitive sports or walking to the mailbox and back.
