Osteopathy is a drug-free, non-invasive manual therapy. Manual medicine means that both diagnosis and treatment are carried out with the hands.

Osteopaths aim to help improve overall health across all body systems by manipulating and strengthening the musculoskeletal and fascial framework. Treatment aims to positively affect the body’s nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic systems.

Note that in Ontario osteopaths are called “Osteopathic Manual Practitioners” to distinguish us from American osteopaths who are physicians.
