Osteopathy is a patient-centred, holistic approach to health care. Osteopathic treatment is a gentle, non-invasive form of manual therapy that works with the body’s own self-healing and self-regulating mechanisms, rather than imposing forceful intervention. Osteopathy emphasizes the relationship between structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) to support total body health.
Osteopathy recognizes that a myriad of factors such as previous injuries, illnesses, stress, and daily habits contribute to your health concerns. These factors often lead to symptoms that may appear distant from their original cause, making a whole-body perspective essential.
- Musculoskeletal pain or weakness
- Neurological disturbances (e.g., sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome)
- Acute and chronic pain (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis)
- Migraines and headaches
- Digestive disorders
- Respiratory difficulties
- Prenatal and postnatal issues (e.g., general pains, pelvic floor concerns)
- Circulatory problems
An Osteopathic Practitioner focuses on supporting the body’s inherent ability to heal and function as a cohesive unit. Using osteopathic principles and techniques, treatment addresses imbalances and supports the body’s natural processes at every stage of life. This approach helps optimize blood flow, nerve function, and lymphatic drainage, offering a comprehensive path to health that addresses both immediate symptoms and underlying causes without forceful intervention

Josh Terrey is an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner with two decades of experience in the health and wellness field. His work is grounded in a deep understanding of human movement, structure, and the body’s capacity to self-regulate when given appropriate support.
Josh is a graduate of the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy and holds a Master of Osteopathic Manipulative Science (M.OMSc.). He continues to advance his osteopathic training through postgraduate studies with the Sutherland Cranial College of Osteopathy in the United Kingdom, where he is working toward Fellowship, as well as with the Center for Traditional Osteopathy, where he is studying the Biodynamics of Osteopathy Curriculum developed by James Jealous, D.O.
Prior to studying osteopathy, Josh earned a degree in Kinesiology and a diploma in Health Promotion. He also maintains certifications as an Exercise Physiologist, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), and holds multiple certifications through Functional Movement Systems (FMS). This background allows him to integrate osteopathic principles with a practical understanding of movement, load, and adaptation.
In practice, Josh takes a thoughtful, attentive approach to care, focusing on how the whole system is functioning rather than chasing symptoms in isolation. His commitment to ongoing study reflects a belief that good treatment begins with careful listening — to both the patient and the body.
