Your body is one interconnected system—when one part is out of balance, it can affect the whole. 🧠💪

Asymmetries like uneven shoulders, a tilted pelvis, or spinal misalignments can interfere with your nervous system and impact how you move, feel, and function. These imbalances often develop over time—from growth, injuries, or postural strain.

Meet Dana (she/her), another one of Healthpoint’s passionate osteopaths! As a mother of two, Dana has a deep personal understanding of pregnancy, birth, and post-partum recovery. Her own experience of natural, physiological childbirth shapes her commitment to empowering women with confidence, clarity, and continuity of care, and she regularly collaborates with midwives, doulas, and other health professionals to ensure well-rounded support.

In addition to working with women, babies, and children, Dana has extensive training in supporting people with chronic pelvic pain and other visceral (organ related) conditions.

Outside of clinic life, Dana feels most at home in nature — she enjoys hiking, cycling and spending quality time outdoors. She loves circus arts and has a trapeze rig in her backyard.

Dana is available on Mondays.

The lymphatic system is a vital part of our body's immune and drainage networks. It plays a crucial role in maintaining fluid balance, filtering out toxins, and supporting immune function.

Winter is an excellent time to consider manual therapy treatments to support your lymphatic health and overall well-being.
