Question 1

Can osteopathy help with what we’re experiencing?

Accepted Answer

Osteopathy supports comfort and mobility by looking at how the body is moving, adapting, and sharing load. If you’re noticing tension, discomfort, or patterns that seem new or persistent, we can explore what’s going on and whether osteopathic care may help.

Question 2

Do I need a referral for osteopathic care?

Accepted Answer

No, you don't need a referral to book an appointment. Some insurance providers require a referral though, so if you plan to claim through extended health benefits check with them first.

You don't need ultrasound, x-ray or MRI tests before seeing me either. If you have access to results from recent imaging bring the reports with you so we can review them. Otherwise book directly whenever you're ready!

Question 3

I’m not sure if osteopathy is right for my baby. Can I ask first?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. If you’re unsure, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to help you understand what I look for, how treatment works, and whether it may be a good fit for your family.

Question 4

What if my baby cries, feeds, or wiggles during the session?

Accepted Answer

Totally normal. Sessions are flexible and shaped around your baby’s cues. You’re welcome to feed, soothe, or snuggle as needed. It’s all part of the process.

Question 5

Can my child move around during their session?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Kids explore, wiggle, and shift so treatment adapts with them. Sessions are active, playful, and responsive to their comfort.

Question 6

Can I stay with my child during the session?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Parents are involved throughout - holding, feeding, supplying snacks, holding a show, and playing is always welcome.

Question 7

What should I bring to my child's appointment?

Accepted Answer

I want them to feel as comfortable as possible! If that means having their favourite stuffed animal to cuddle then feel free to bring that along. We can't always expect them to be still for the whole session either so bring toys, teethers or books that they like to keep them busy. If you're comfortable with your child watching a show while they're here bring a device for them too.

Question 8

How many appointments will we need?

Accepted Answer

Every body responds differently. Some people notice change quickly, while others benefit from a few sessions to support longer‑term patterns. We reassess together and adjust as needed.

Question 9

What should I wear to my session?

Accepted Answer

Think comfortable and stretchy! Wear bottoms you can move easily in and a lightweight top to get the most out of your session. Babies can stay dressed in whatever keeps them warm and settled.

Question 12

Is osteopathy covered by my private insurance provider?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can claim osteopathic treatment with me as part of most extended health insurance plans. I'm a member of the Ontario Association of Osteopathic Manual Practitioners (OAO), which is a major accrediting body in Ontario.

When you pay for your appointment you will receive an invoice with all the details you need to submit your claim. If you're not sure if your plan covers osteopathy, check with your insurance provider before scheduling a visit.

Question 13

Do you offer direct billing?

Accepted Answer

Direct billing is not available at this time. You’ll receive a detailed invoice to submit to your insurance provider.

Question 14

Is parking available?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Street parking is free in front of my house.

You're welcome to park in the driveway if there's space too.
