You asked for more osteopathy so the wait is over! We’re so excited to introduce you to Alvin who will be here on Fridays from 2:30-7pm and Saturdays from 10-3pm. Read on for info from the source…😃
***
I’m Alvin, an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, dedicated to helping people feel better, move more freely, and return to the things that bring them joy.

My journey in health and fitness began after earning my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, when I started working as a Personal Trainer and Kinesiologist. I supported people with unique needs such as pain, arthritis, joint replacements, injuries, and postural issues. Over time, I realized something important was missing in my approach; I was only treating the symptom, not the root cause. This led me to Osteopathy.

I completed my five-year osteopathic education at the Sutherland-Chan School of Osteopathy, where I learned theories and hands-on techniques to work with the human body. This included the musculoskeletal system (muscles, bones, joints, and soft tissues), the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, gynecological, and cranial systems. The focus was to see the bigger picture and how all of these systems influenced one another.

With curiosity, care and respect for each person’s story, my treatments are tailored to your needs, combining what I’ve learned from osteopathy and kinesiology with what you share about your life.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing recreational volleyball and dodgeball. I’m also an avid cyclist; twice I rode from Toronto to Montreal to raise funds for the People With AIDS Foundation. Outside of sports, I love exploring different neighbourhoods around the city, though I’ll admit I’m usually in bed by 10 p.m!

A few days late posting but we've started our Winter Drive. As per usual, we don't accept tips in the clinic but we'll gladly accept them and match up to $1000 in support of organizations of our choice. (We'll happily do the same with any donations as well. 😊)

This year we're supporting the work of:
1. UNICEF Canada as they continue to help the children caught in the Gaza crisis.
2. Rainbow Railroad who assist LBGTQI+ folks worldwide to find safety from persecution.
3. Food Banks Canada as food banks are being stretched to their limits just as families need them more than ever.

As always, thank you for your support 🙏🏼💜

Hey folks! Just letting you know that we have a new chiro on board. Richard is here on Mondays and Thursdays from 3-7pm.
We're aware that many people are a little scared of chiropractic but treatment isn't always a quick forceful adjustment. Read on to learn a bit more about Richard and his practice...
✨👀🦴

Whether it was playing or watching, sports have always been a huge part of my life including the understanding that many injuries can be associated- concussions, sprains and strains. Having had a placement at a chiropractor’s office in undergrad, I was curious on how the profession could help with rehabilitation. So off I went… to San Jose, California, where I attended Palmer College of Chiropractic West.

Since graduating, I have had the opportunity to work with athletes of all levels including Team Ontario Soccer athletes at the 2022 Niagara Canada Games. It was truly a rewarding and amazing experience!

Chiropractors have a variety of tools that can be utilized to deliver care. Typically one thinks only of chiropractic adjustment ('cracking') but soft tissue therapy, acupuncture, exercises and many other modalities are also employed. Although sports are my first passion, I look forward to and welcome patients from all diverse backgrounds. Individualized care is always my priority and  treatments are tailored to fit you and your comfort level.

It can be even more difficult navigating life during the holiday season. If you're looking for support, we now have a new psychotherapist seeing folks in person. Please read on. We think she's pretty magical! Introducing Fiona Green...

Fiona Green
RP (Q); P-RDT

When people ask me, how long have I been working as a psychotherapist or drama therapist, I half-jokingly respond, “my whole life”. I am someone who cares deeply about others, honours and validates the human experience, and holds space no matter the circumstance.

I offer deeply compassionate client-centered services for adolescents and adults. I am trained in the evidence-based models of Psychodynamic, ACT, CBT, and Narrative therapy as well as the Creative Arts Therapies (Role theory, Psychodrama, Improv, etc.), and so interweave these modalities to best suit my client’s needs. My therapy approach goes beyond talk therapy, to also be embodied and explorative, interactive, and somatically based. In this way emotions, memories, and presenting issues are explored and processed not only with words but with movement, metaphors, play, and body relaxation techniques. But it is always up to the client as to how creative they want to get!

Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a professional actress and somatic therapeutic practitioner for 12 years. I bring my creative skills and extensive knowledge of the human body and nervous system into my practice.

I specialize in working with those experiencing grief and loss, identity challenges, family conflict, and anxiety and depression. I believe greatly in creating a safe space throughout the therapy journey and bring a trauma-informed and anti-oppressive approach into my sessions.

I am truly passionate about disability visibility and rights and about being an ally in every shape and form. I welcome you to come play, express safely, and heal.
