Chiropractic is a non-invasive, hands-on health care discipline that focuses on the musculoskeletal system.

Busy, active lives take their toll on our bodies. We put tremendous physical demands on ourselves, creating structural imbalances (called subluxations). An unbalanced body can’t function at its full potential; chiropractic treatment can get things back into balance for optimized wellness.

Chiropractic is based on the premise that the body is only well when the nervous system is functioning at 100%. When your spine is misaligned, it puts pressure on your nerves, causing vertebral subluxations that lead to muscle tension, joint restriction, back pain, arthritic changes and nerve impingement, all of which can exist with or without physical symptoms.

Doctors of chiropractic restore motion and alignment to these areas with gentle and effective adjustments, enabling the body to perform at optimal levels without injury.

Chiropractic doesn’t look at symptoms or injuries in isolation. It’s a holistic practice that focuses on the whole person, considering the relationship of all the parts of your body to each other. It ‘s an approach that isn’t about treating a single part of your body; it stresses the importance of a comprehensive prevention strategy that incorporates nutrition, exercise and stress reduction.

Osteopathy is a natural medicine that uses palpation to restore function by treating the causes of pain and imbalance. Osteopathic manual practitioners identify, assess, and treat the body’s structures and rhythms using a gentle, hands-on approach.

Osteopathic manual practitioners gently yet intentionally touch the tissues or systems under examination. They palpate to get sensory information through touch receptors in the fingertips and palms, and through the proprioceptors (motion and position sensors) deep in the joints of the hands, wrists, arms and shoulders.

The ability to detect minute modifications in the tissues allows osteopathic manual practitioners to prioritize a patient's course of treatment. They look for a variety of issues including congestion, dehydration, scarring, stiffness, density, loss of resilience, and motility, and also assess position, mobility and vitality to determine which areas need immediate attention.

Dina Ibrahim has always been interested in alternative health since her early years studying kinesiology and health sciences during her undergraduate degree at York University. Kinesiology was what first opened Dina’s eyes to a different way of bringing health to the human body. After graduating from kinesiology she worked at a number of multi-dispensary clinics alongside physiotherapists and massage therapists for over 2 years. During those years she worked one-on-one with many different patients providing strengthening exercises and placing them on various modalities. Dina began to notice that each individual was unique and no two individuals could follow the same program. This is when she realized she wanted to do more for patients other than providing exercise programs, which is what lead her to continue her education in Osteopathy.

Dina is currently studying classical osteopathy at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy. Osteopathy is an integrative health therapy taking into consideration all the systems in the body and providing gentle manipulation to restore motion and health in the body. Dina is now transitioning into her 4th year of studies and her goal is to help patients using manual therapy while still drawing on her knowledge and experience in kinesiology.
