Our approach to osteopathy

Osteopathy is a manual approach that views the body as an interconnected whole. Our osteopaths assess the mobility of joints, muscles, and connective tissues to identify and treat restrictions causing pain. Through gentle manipulation and mobilization techniques, they help restore the body's balance and stimulate its natural self-healing abilities.

Why choose osteopathy?

A complementary, safe, and personalized approach for each patient.

No medication or surgery

A gentle, non-invasive method that leverages the body's natural abilities to relieve pain and promote healing, without side effects.

Long-Term Well-being

Beyond immediate relief, osteopathy helps prevent pain recurrence and maintain your daily mobility.

Global Postural Reeducation (GPR)

A postural gymnastics method using global and progressive stretches that corrects muscular imbalances, relieves chronic tension, and improves body alignment, complementing osteopathic treatments.

Conditions Treated

Osteopathy relieves back and neck pain, headaches, muscle tension, digestive issues, and pain related to pregnancy or posture. It is suitable for all ages, from infants to seniors, and integrates well with a treatment plan combining physiotherapy and massage therapy.

Your Treatment Journey

From your initial consultation to your recovery, here's how your care journey unfolds.

01

Assessment and Evaluation

During the first session, your physiotherapist will analyze your condition, assess your range of motion, and identify the sources of your pain. This in-depth assessment forms the basis for a targeted treatment.

02

Custom Treatment Plan

Based on your assessment, a personalized program is established: manual therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and specialized techniques tailored to your goals.

03

Monitoring and progress

At each session, your therapist measures your progress and adjusts the plan accordingly. The goal: lasting recovery, with the tools to maintain your results long-term.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions will be necessary?

It depends on your condition. Most patients see significant results after 4 to 8 sessions. Your physiotherapist will establish a clear plan during the initial assessment.

Do I need a medical prescription?

No. In Quebec, physiotherapy is directly accessible without a medical referral. However, some insurance providers may require a prescription — check with your insurer.

Are my treatments covered by insurance?

Most private insurance plans cover physiotherapy. We issue compliant receipts for submission. CNESST and SAAQ are also accepted.

What should I bring to my first session?

Bring your insurance card, comfortable clothing that allows movement, and any relevant medical documents (X-rays, MRIs, reports).

Is it normal to feel a reaction after an osteopathy session?

Yes. Slight sensitivity or fatigue within 24 to 48 hours after treatment is normal, much like after a workout. This reaction is temporary and usually precedes a noticeable improvement.
