André MacNair is an Osteopathic Manual Therapist who provides care across the lifespan, from childhood through adulthood and into older age. His approach is grounded in the core osteopathic principles of body unity, self-regulation, and the relationship between structure and function. Treatment is always tailored to the individual, with attention to how the whole body contributes to health, pain, and recovery. André works with a wide range of concerns, including chronic and acute pain, sports-related injuries, motor vehicle accidents, TMJ dysfunction, and functional issues involving the digestive and urogenital systems. His treatments focus on identifying and addressing neuromuscular and structural imbalances using appropriate hands-on osteopathic techniques. Initial appointments typically include a thorough case history, visual observation, range-of-motion assessment, and orthopedic and osteopathic testing to determine the most appropriate treatment approach. When applicable, André may also recommend simple exercises or self-care strategies to support rehabilitation and long-term improvement. Central to André’s practice is the osteopathic understanding that the body functions as an integrated whole. By assessing how different systems interact, he identifies underlying contributors to pain or dysfunction. He supports the body’s natural capacity for balance and healing, either through treatment or by guiding patients toward additional care when necessary.
Osteopathy is a hands-on approach that integrates a patient's medical history with visual observation, palpation, and orthopedic and osteopathic testing. The osteopathic manual therapist may prescribe additional home-based exercises to support symptom management and promote further improvement of the presenting complaint. Treatment focuses on manual techniques guided by the principles of body unit, self-regulation and the relationship between structure and function, to support overall health and well-being.
