Alexandre has 25 years of experience in manual therapy, including massage therapy and osteopathy. He also has more than 20 years of teaching various massage therapy techniques. Alex studied osteopathy at E.P.O.Q (Professional School of Osteopathy in Quebec) and learned Asian modalities like Nuad Boran, Tuina, Amma in Thailand, China and Japan. His treatments are very much influenced by these approaches and the way they “see” the body using tendino-muscular channels, Qi circulation, abdominal palpation and ear observation. Each session incorporates assessment in motion using rocking movements and a whole body routine massage with acupressure points and specific osteopathic techniques. This thoroughness ensures that nothing is missed in the tissue diagnosis.
The history of osteopathy goes back about 150 years and could be simply seen as a manual approach that treats the body as a whole. Osteopaths believe that all body systems interrelate and depend upon one another for good health. Osteopaths treat the entire body, including muscles, joints, viscera and cranial sphere. In osteopathy, the therapist will utilize a holistic approach that not only focuses on the area of pain but includes an examination of the entire body to discover possible causes for the problem. Alexandre combines his training in osteopathy with his massage therapy techniques for a truly unique treatment.
