Ananta Wellness & Osteopathy

Osteopathy is a therapeutic practice that is based upon the premise that manipulation of the muscles, viscera, bones, and the central nervous system, encourages self regulation within the body to restore function reduced pain and improved imbalances. Athletic Therapy involves the assessment, rehabilitation and prevention of orthopaedic and/or musculoskeletal injuries. Athletic Therapists use a variety of rehabilitative techniques to treat injuries and conditions sustained while playing a sport, recreational activities, accidents, or occupations. Sessions may be different than other forms of therapy you’ve undergone. We work with only one patient per session, allowing for a thorough assessment, hands-on treatment of structures involved with the limitations presented for that day, as well as, educate/prescribe of exercises specific for each patient. You can expect a full body, manual and active rehabilitation approach. Our treatment techniques use a light touch and a hands-on approach to treat pain and dysfunction. All rehabilitation exercises are prescribed, monitored and progressed appropriately by a member of our team. Treatment can help eliminate pain, improve movement, reduce fatigue, improve overall strength and function, prevent further injury and re-condition you back to sport, work or day-to-day activities. In addition, our therapeutic approach can help with relieving symptoms and distress associated with digestion, menstruation, and concussion. Our team has been using a manual therapy approach to help people just like you to manage symptoms and speed recovery for over 15 years. This is made possible by assessing and treating the body as a whole, including its foundation and all its contents. Our team members have studied non-conventional approaches to healing including Craniosacral therapy, Endocranial Spasm, Strain Counter Strain, Muscle Energy Technique, Functional Normalization and Myofacial Release. All of which will help restore movement, balance, and improved health. We specialize in working one-on-one with people of all ages who fall into 3 groups:

1. People who have sustained an injury while playing a sport or being physically active. Often these are people who may not have found relief with conventional physiotherapy or other forms of treatment and want to try a different approach.

2. People who suffer from old injuries that have not completely recovered, chronic pain, and nagging aches and pains. Similarly, these individuals have not found complete relief in their symptoms and issues continue to chronically plague them, causing ongoing distress and impact on their lives.

3. People who are actively involved in improving their personal health and quality of life. Often these are people who suffer from a condition that affect their day-to-day activities. In many instances these are people who come to manage chronic issues and to prevent future flare-ups.
