My Story

I am proud to announce my official joining with the Ananta Wellness and Osteopathy collective located at 16th and Granville St in Vancouver, B.C.

Welcome! My journey into the world of osteopathic manual therapy began not in a classroom, but as a patient searching for answers. For years, I battled severe, chronic neck pain that completely disrupted my life. I tried common forms of therapy and consulted numerous doctors but was continually met with temporary relief or no answers at all. Everything changed when I crossed paths with an osteopathic manual therapist. By looking at my body as a whole, they helped me achieve the lasting results and relief I thought were impossible. This transformative experience sparked a deep passion within me to understand the human body and provide that same profound relief to others.

My Philosophy & Training

I graduated from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy with a Master in Practice of Osteopathic Manipulative Sciences (M.OMSc), and am certified with OSTCAN. My comprehensive 4.5-year training encompasses over 4,200 hours of academic study, including 1,200 hours of direct, supervised clinical practice. As a member of Osteopathy Canada—an association aligned with World Health Organization (WHO) standards—my treatments are covered by most major extended health insurance plans.

I approach osteopathy through a classical lens, rooted in functional anatomy and the body’s interconnected nature. Rather than simply chasing symptoms, I work to identify and address the root causes of dysfunction. Guided by the core relationship between structure and function, I view symptomatology not as an isolated issue to silence, but as valuable communication from the body. By listening to that feedback, and restoring structural balance, we support the body's natural capacity to self-regulate and heal.

Looking Ahead

At the heart of my practice is a genuine, deep-seated care for people—and animals! I am committed to meeting my clients exactly where they are on their healing journeys. As I continue my professional career, I look forward to expanding my classical training and practice to support both infants and animals down the road, bringing holistic, root-cause relief to a wider family of beings.

I look forward to collaborating with you, listening to your body's unique story, and helping you find lasting balance and vitality.
