Theresa Lor

Theresa Lor, OMT – I will graduate from The Canadian Academy of Osteopathy In April of 2026 completing a 4 year program in Classical Osteopathy with over 1,000 hours of supervised hands-on clinical training and 4200 hours of hands-on in person training.

Over many years my body stopped responding to restorative practices the way it once had, and years at a desk left me with chronic pain that limited what I could do. After spending significant time and money seeking relief, I discovered body rolling, which sparked my interest in self-maintenance and deepened my curiosity about anatomy and movement.

What is Osteopathy?

Osteopathy is a gentle, holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the body as a connected and integrated whole. It is based on the understanding that the body’s structure and function are closely related, and when one area is restricted, it can influence overall health and well-being.

Through hands-on treatment, osteopathy works to release tension, improve mobility, and restore balance within the body. Using techniques such as soft tissue therapy, joint mobilization, and subtle manual adjustments, it helps support circulation, reduce strain, and encourage the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
