Her love and amazement of the human body helped further her education at the University of Guelph where she graduated with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology with honors (2015).

Lauren graduated from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy (CAO) in Hamilton, Ontario with a Masters of Practice Diploma in Osteopathic Manipulative Science (M.OMSc). There, she gained a deep understanding of osteopathic principles and a more in-depth knowledge of anatomy, physiology and mechanics of the human body.

A bit about Osteopathy-Classically trained practitioners are trained to look at the body as a dynamic unit of function in which every bone, muscle, nerve, vessel and organ are interrelated. This allows them to see patterns that aren't transparent when just looking at the systems individually. Osteopathic practitioners use a variety of principle based manual techniques in order to reduce or remove restrictions within the body in order to restore the normal its physiological function, which helps the body with the healing process.

A little more about Stretch therapy: Stretch therapy is a pain free, table based therapy that involves passive stretching. The clients goal is to relax and focus on deep breathing, and allow the therapist to do all the work! This allows you to get a much deeper stretch and into postures that you typically cannot do on your own. You will notice not only an ease in tightness and tension, improved range of motion and flexibility, but also an improvement in posture, recovery from workouts,  circulation, digestion, and more!
