After earning his Master of Osteopathic Manipulative Sciences diploma from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy, Mitch entered the health industry to explore his passion for helping people. Mitch has always felt like the human body is an incredible marvel of nature. It’s been this sense of awe and wonder that has brought him to the philosophy and science of Osteopathy where he can use the relationship between anatomy and physiology to help restore constitution and vitality to his patients; to help them self-heal, self-regulate and find the health that they have lost.

Following this, he began his Master’s of Physical Therapy at D’Youville College in Buffalo, NY and graduated in May 2006. More recently, Greg has completed his Doctorate in Physical Therapy.

“You don’t have to be an athlete or suffer from chronic pain in order to benefit from physiotherapy - it is for everyone! I strongly believe in patient education to help foster an overall improvement in quality of life.”

Most of Greg’s patients have experienced great relief with active and preventive physiotherapy in their work and daily lives. Greg’s focus is on orthopedic patients in various populations, where one-to-one manual therapy and patient-centred care are emphasized. Greg is very passionate about Differential Diagnosis and strives to provide the highest level of assessment by educating his patients not only on their current injury but also by creating an understanding of how to avoid future injury. Continuing education is very important to Greg, and he has completed post-graduate training in vestibular rehabilitation and acupuncture.

Carolyn completed her undergraduate degree in mathematics at Queen’s University before completing her Masters of Physical Therapy at the University of Western Ontario in 2009. She first spent her career working in orthopedics and sports rehabilitation then turned her focus to pelvic physiotherapy and now exclusively practices in pelvic physiotherapy.

“I am passionate about working in this unique field of physiotherapy. There can be such a dramatic improvement in function, and well-being can be achieved in this very important - and often not talked about - area of people’s lives. It is important to me that pelvic health and its symptoms can be talked about and thought of in a comfortable and confident way.”

She is active in continuing her postgraduate education and has taken numerous courses in women’s and men’s pelvic health treatment, as well as courses in manual therapy and acupuncture.

Carolyn is proud to be a local resident of Wilmot Township and its wonderful community. As a mother of three, Carolyn can relate first hand to the effects pelvic symptoms can have on a person’s life. Empowering people to be able to help themselves regain a feeling of well-being through education and exercises is very important in Carolyn’s practice.
