Hi, my name is Karah
and I can’t wait to meet you! I am an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner with a passion for helping people overcome health challenges which impede their ability to live more joyful, fulfilling lives. My passion for understanding the intricacies of the body was ignited while training and competing all over the world as a rhythmic gymnast representing team Canada. While competing at this level, injuries were common, however through rehabilitation and successful management, these challenges fostered my devotion to understanding the human body.
After obtaining my BSc in Human Kinetics at the University of Guelph, I enrolled in a 5 year program at the Canadian College of Osteopathy in Toronto and graduated with a Diploma in Osteopathic Manual Practice. This program was culminated in the successful completion of a thesis where I looked at the importance of an interdisciplinary treatment approach when working in the field of women’s pelvic health.
Whether you are someone with pelvic pain, back pain, neck pain, headaches, digestive complaints or pelvic health concerns such as endometriosis, incontinence or painful periods (just to name a few!) you’ve landed in the right place! I take a full body approach to healing, focusing specifically on joint mechanics, the fascial system, visceral manipulation & cranial-sacral therapy. This approach can help to remove tensions from areas of the body, allowing the body’s natural self healing mechanisms to function properly. When I’m not helping clients, you can find me getting outside and staying active with my husband, daughter & pup!
