Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy that aims to bring your body back into a balanced state in order to promote health. It is a gentle, natural form of treatment that is very effective at relieving pain and addressing a variety of health concerns.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is an extension of osteopathy that uses very gentle techniques to help the craniosacral system of the body back to balance. It facilitates relief of concerns like headaches & migraines, low back pain, TMJ pain, and many concerns relating to the nervous system.
Reiki
Reiki is a form of treatment for your energy body. It works to bring balance to body, mind and spirit. It is done by placing hands lightly on or near a series of locations on the body. It does not involve any osteopathic treatment or physical manipulation of any kind. In fact, for those who prefer not to be touched, reiki can be done with no physical contact
Yoga
Yoga classes are also offered from time to time, both online and in person. Personalized suggestions for yoga stretches and exercises that may complement your osteopathic treatments are often provided as needed.

“I booked my first appointment with The Rivers after sustaining an injury to my neck and shoulders and being referred for osteopathy. Other treatments, including massage therapy, hadn’t worked for me. I wasn’t sure what to expect, so upon my arrival Elle explained the process and answered all my questions. She is thoughtful, professional and very knowledgeable. I left my first appointment pain free and was given resources to help me with further healing. I’ve since been back and I’ve spoken highly of her practice with friends, family and colleagues.”
