Our pregnancy care team includes Osteopathic Manual Practitioners, Registered Massage Therapists and Naturopathic Doctors. Each practitioner offers a different form of support. Together, they can help you build a circle of care that works for you and your family.
Osteopathic Care During Pregnancy
Osteopathic manual therapy uses gentle, hands-on techniques to address tension, mobility and structural changes. During pregnancy, treatment may support comfort as your body changes. Care can also focus on the back, hips, pelvis and other areas experiencing physical strain.
After birth, osteopathic care may support mobility and address tension related to recovery, feeding positions and caring for your baby.
Prenatal and Postpartum Massage
Registered Massage Therapy offers a supportive space for rest and physical care. Treatment may help ease muscle tension, back or hip discomfort, swelling and fatigue during pregnancy.
After birth, massage therapy can focus on areas affected by feeding, carrying and caring for a baby. Your therapist will adapt the positioning, pressure and techniques to your health history and comfort.
Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic Medicine provides whole-person support before, during and after pregnancy. Care may address nutrition, digestion, sleep, stress, energy and other personal health concerns.
Our Naturopathic Doctors take time to understand your health history and priorities. They can also work alongside your physician, midwife and other healthcare providers as part of your broader care team.

My approach to treatment is conversation based. I listen to a patient’s history to link their symptoms and create a treatment plan. Through a biomechanical assessment, I am able to tailor my approach to best suit the patient’s needs effectively. My hands-on outlook to treatment helps to create a truly personalized experience.
