Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy that focuses on relieving tensions in your body to improve musculoskeletal function as well as nerve, blood and lymph flow. At Nurturing Roots, our Osteopathic Practitioner believes your body has innate ability to self-heal and regulate through holistic healing as a way to promote and improve your health and well-being.

Osteopathic practitioners use a variety of manual techniques, such as soft tissues release, joint mobilization and oscillation, visceral and fluid movement techniques to restore balance to your body and promote healing.

My discovery of Osteopathy started years ago after working in a system which focused on symptoms and recognizing the need for a more holistic, full-body and mind approach to healing. I have spent the majority of my career as a Registered Practical Nurse working in mental health settings. Through this work, I was determined to understand and explore alternative healing modalities which embodied the mind, body and soul. I continued my studies in osteopathic manual therapy and graduated from the National Academy of Osteopathy (NAO).

I provide gentle and effective care and am dedicated to helping my patients achieve optimal health and wellness. With a passion for understanding the intricate relationships between body, mind and soul, I tailor my treatments to address each individual’s unique needs. My goal is to empower you with knowledge and strategies for life-long wellbeing. I view the body as an interconnected whole and my approach honours this unity, addressing physical and emotional aspects of health. My focus is to help you identify and release patterns of tensions, promoting self-healing and balance through the use of manual therapy skills including joint mobilization, muscle energy techniques and soft tissues techniques.

Outside of my professional life, you will find me spending time with my wife and daughter, camping, hiking and sitting by the fire. Fitness has always been a part of my life and something I lean on in creating balance and being able to show up for those around me. When I do get some downtime, I will be watching football or nascar racing.
