About Our Oakville Osteopath Services

Oakville Osteopath is a holistic, non-invasive manual therapy that emphasizes the connection between the body’s structure and its function. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, osteopathy seeks to identify and treat the root cause of health issues by assessing the body as a whole.

Our Oakville Osteopath utilizes their extensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology to ensure that all structures of the body are able to move freely. By encouraging this unrestricted movement, osteopathy enhances the body’s ability to self-heal, maintain balance, and support optimal function.

Osteopathy is founded on the principles that the body is a dynamic unit of function, that the body has its own self-healing mechanisms, and that structure and function are interrelated. It was first developed by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still in the 1870s, and is a science, a philosophy, and a practice.

What to expect in an Oakville Osteopath Session?

Every treatment follows a principles-based approach allowing it to be tailored to each person, depending on their individual needs. This means that each treatment may look a little bit different as your practitioner works to address the root cause of the problem. 

Treatment is performed while you remain fully clothed, so we recommend wearing comfortable, easy-to-move-in clothing.

Initial Appointment:
Your first Oakville Osteopath visit will last up to 1 hour, including a thorough review of your health history, a discussion of your current concerns, and a detailed assessment. The session will conclude with your first treatment and a personalized plan for your care.

Follow-up Appointments:
Subsequent treatments will be up to 30 minutes and will continue to focus on addressing the root cause of your issue, with changes made based on your progress.
