Reiki is a system of healing that works by simple placement of the hands and the channeling of energy. It is understood in many cultures that an unseen energy flows through all living things and is directly connected to the quality of life we experience. Recent scientific experiments has verified this life force energy and medical doctors are now considering the role is plays in the immune system and healing process.

Reiki is a technique of healing, stress reducing and relaxation that taps into this “life force” energy. The treatment feels like a warm, glowing radiance flowing through and surrounding you. Reiki treats the whole person, including body, emotion, mind and spirit. This is a simple, natural and safe treatment with healing and self-improvement outcomes. Reiki has shown great results with helping anxiety, depression, headaches, insomnia and chronic pain.

A Reiki treatment is done while the client is fully clothed laying down or seated. The practitioner places their hands on or near the clients body allowing the energy to flow from the practitioners hands to the clients body in a series of hand positions.

While pursuing his Bachelor of Kinesiology at the University of Alberta, and competing as an

injury prone track and field athlete, Stephen learned the importance of therapy in his life. He

noticed it wasn’t just for the benefit of performance, but firstly for benefit of ones health. Fast

forward to coaching in the same sport, Stephen wanted to be able to implement real time therapy

alongside their training sessions. He thus began his education in Manual Osteopathy at the

National Manual Osteopathic College and has been practicing since 2017.

After graduating Stephen has taken further education in visceral manipulation (VM1, VM2,

VM4), craniosacral therapy (CS1, CS2), Functional Movement Screen (FMS1), Selective

Functional Movement Assessment ( SFMA1, SFMA2), Total Body Balancing (TBB1, TBB2,

TBB3), Lymphatic Balancing (TBLB1), Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT1, NKT2), and Kinesio

Taping (KT1, KT2, KT3).

A session with Stephen will typically be a head to toe assessment, breaking down posture and

movement patterns, and getting an overall map of the tension that is currently existing in your

body. Sensorimotor testing is used to ask your body to identify the main structural stressors that

are contributing to your pain or discomfort ( the area identified sometimes quite distant from is

ailing you). This helps us determine if we need specific treatment to an area of your body or if

we will generalize our treatment to a broader region. Treatment can be quite varied depending on

wether we find the issue to be muscle, bone, joint, nerve, vascular or fluid dynamics, and the

type of adaptation these tissues are in. Finally, you will typically have some post treatment care

to do that continues the therapeutic affects of our treatment after you leave the clinic.

In his spare time, Stephen is usually working on the never ending renovations on his house or

learning to skateboard.When you’re not thinking about what holds you back,

you’ll begin to know what pulls you forward.
