Professional and registered osteopath ROE no. 437

Osteopathy is a mechanical passion! I see myself as a mechanic, but not for cars, for bodies and anatomy: the structure, the spine, joints that don’t move, and people aren’t aware of it! They’re unaware of the tension they hold and grip, they’re unaware that their pain and aches are symptoms of chronic tissue.

When joints don’t have their full range of motion, they lose tensegrity, elasticity, and balance. My work is to restore movement and improve the quality of chronic, and acute tissue with osteopathy and bioenergetic restoration.

I treat everyone: adults, athletes, children, and babies because anatomy is anatomy, and it doesn’t matter what field they come from. We’re here to help.
