Overview

Osteopathy is a whole body approach to manual treatment which takes into account personalize history. Osteopathy is a natural medicine which includes the philosophy that the body has a innate ability to self-regulate and self-heal. Osteopathic practitioners use a gentle hands-on approach in order to optimize these self-regulating mechanisms.

Robin Profile Picture

Robin Young

Osteopathic Manual Practitioner focused on pediatrics, pregnancy, and fertility, OMP

I’m Robin Young, the proud founder of Robin’s Nest Family Care. Health and Wellness has been a guiding focus in my life since high school. I suffered from lower back pain during this stage of life that led me to seek physical therapy treatment to allow me to continue my active lifestyle. While receiving treatment, I sought to work at the same clinic to better understand my body and navigate my journey back to health. Working at the physio clinic as a Kinesiologist was when I was first introduced to Osteopathy. Even with my history of working in multidisciplinary practices alongside numerous alternative practitioners, ‘Osteo’ was a whole new world to me. I decided to give treatment a try and my chronic, high school back pain dissipated with one 60-minute session! My amazing results led me to pursue this field of study, further strengthen my healing ability/therapy background, and the rest is history

Sam McCarthy

Osteopathic Manual Practitioner, M.OMSc

I bring a blend of science, movement, and hands-on care to my osteopathic practice. With advanced training in neuroscience and osteopathic manual therapy, I am passionate about helping the body restore balance, self-heal, and function at its best. My journey into healthcare was inspired by my own experience as a collegiate rower, where I saw firsthand how powerful the right support can be for recovery and performance. Today, I work with clients of all ages and abilities, creating personalized, practical treatment plans that fit real life.

Outside of the clinic, I love staying active, exploring the outdoors, and adventuring with my family, friends, and two pups.

From all of us at Robin’s Nest Family Care, wishing you a season of rest, warmth, and moments that make your heart feel full. 💛
The holidays can bring joy but they can also bring stress, overwhelm, family tension, and old emotional patterns.

If this season feels heavy, you’re not alone.
We have virtual therapy sessions available over the holidays for anyone who needs extra support, grounding, or a safe space to process.

You don’t have to navigate it on your own.

If you’re needing a bit of grounding or support during the holidays, even a one-time session can be helpful. You’re welcome to book a single session and see how it feels

Before the year wraps up, it can be helpful to pause and gently check in with yourself:

-How is my body feeling?
-Where am I holding stress or tension?
-How have I been sleeping?
-What support would feel helpful right now?

If your answers point to sore shoulders, a tight jaw, low energy, or feeling “stretched thin,” your extended health benefits may be able to support you. We have extended our hours to help get you the care you deserve. 

Massage, naturopathic care, osteopathy, nutrition support, mental health counselling. These aren’t indulgences. They are ways to care for your body that has carried you through this year.

If it feels like the right time, we’re here.
You can use your remaining benefits to book a visit before they renew.  Use 🔗 in the description.
