Tracy is an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner with over a decade of experience. She completed the full 5 year program of osteopathic study with the Canadian College of Osteopathy in addition to her thesis relating to malocclusion in children. To further her osteopathic and research skills she completed a Bachelor of Science (Osteopathy) through the British College of Osteopathic Medicine. Tracy was an instructor with the Canadian College of Osteopathy for 10 years, teaching courses including lumbar spine (low back) and the shoulder. She assisted osteopathic students to increase their hands-on treatment skills as well as to deepen their understanding of osteopathic concepts. She is a member of the Nova Scotia Association of Osteopaths as well as the Association of Osteopaths of New Brunswick.
Tracy’s treatments are based on the idea that the whole body is inter-related. The goal of each treatment is to assist the body to restore balance, thus allowing a state of greater health to occur. She treats with her hands using a variety of non-invasive techniques. She focuses on treating the cause of dysfunction and pain, rather than concentrating on the symptoms.
Her extensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology allows her to give highly effective treatments. It is her belief that she and the client are in a partnership working towards optimal health. Along with the treatments at the clinic she often provides the information necessary for an individual to perform stretching and strengthening at home. These exercises are based on the unique needs of each patient. Tracy’s knowledge home care is based not only on her osteopathic education, but also on her degree in physical education and over 13 years of work in the fitness industry prior to becoming a manual therapist.
