Our Team

Physiotherapists

We are university trained, medical experts, in musculoskeletal conditions. We use a hands on approach while incorporating exercises and modalities to help relieve your pain and restore your movement. We evaluate the “Why” behind your pain by investigating your movement patterns with multiple specialized tests. We consider your goals and strive to work with you to help achieve them.

Massage Therapists

Massage can help treat headaches, neck stiffness and pain, arthritis, sports injuries and stress. It is the pressing with the hands that ranges from light strokes to deep pressure along your muscles. There are various types, so please talk to our amazing massage therapist of the techniques you prefer or sit back and let them use their professional judgement on the techniques that will work best for you.

Pilates Instructors

Pilates is a low-impact exercise system designed to strengthen muscles, improve posture, flexibility, and balance. Developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century, it focuses on core strength, controlled movements, and mindful breathing. Pilates can be performed on a mat or specialized equipment like the Reformer, and it’s suitable for people of all fitness levels. Often used in physical rehabilitation and athletic training, Pilates promotes body awareness and alignment, making it a popular choice for those looking to enhance both physical fitness and overall well-being.

Certified in Holistic Nutrition, with a 5-year degree in Dietetics from Brazil, we are professionals trained in natural nutrition, focused on identifying the root causes of health concerns through individualized, whole-food-based strategies. Using a personalized and integrative approach, we support the body through optimized nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and education. We assess dietary habits, digestion, stress levels, and overall wellness to help you feel your best. Whether you’re navigating fatigue, digestive concerns, hormonal imbalances, or simply want to enhance your overall health, we are here to support your goals and walk alongside you in your wellness journey.

Acupuncturists

Acupuncture is a treatment within Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that uses very fine needles placed at specific points on the body to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. Research shows acupuncture can affect the nervous system, circulation, and tissue repair, helping to reduce pain, inflammation, and stress while supporting recovery. Treatment is based on restoring balance in the body and may include both local and distal points to address symptoms and overall function. Practitioners may also recommend lifestyle and dietary changes to support long-term health and wellbeing.

Occupational Therapists

We are master’s-trained health professionals dedicated to helping you thrive in everyday life. Whether injury, illness, or disability has affected your ability to function, we take a practical, goal-oriented approach to help you get back to the activities that matter most. Our care addresses not just physical abilities, but also cognitive and emotional challenges, and how these impact your daily tasks. Through functional assessment, education, and personalized strategies, we help you build skills, adapt tasks or environments, and regain independence.

Osteopaths

We offer a comprehensive clinical approach that integrates musculoskeletal, joint, and visceral systems. A full body assessment focuses on how posture, mobility, performance, and internal functions interact, allowing us to accurately identify the root cause of pain or movement restrictions. Through precise and tissue respectful manual techniques, we help restore mobility, enhance recovery, and support both athletic performance and overall well being. We work with each patient using a structured, goal oriented approach tailored to their lifestyle and needs.
