Hi, I’m Nao! I’m originally from Japan and have always loved supporting others in meaningful ways. Even small acts of helping make me happy.

Before becoming a Registered Massage Therapist, I worked as a massage practitioner for over 10 years in Japan, Canada, and Egypt, gaining experience in spas, wellness centers, and mobile services. These experiences inspired me to deepen my knowledge of the body and pursue formal education in massage therapy.

I love working with Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, stretching, and Swedish massage, tailoring techniques to meet each client’s needs. I am especially passionate about pregnancy massage and enjoy supporting clients through this important time.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, trying new foods, and exploring new experiences. I strive to make each session not only effective but also a relaxing and positive experience, supporting clients to feel cared for and balanced.

With over 12 years of clinical experience, I have seen and understood how beneficial treatment can be. Body-work can make such a difference in how people can feel and how their body can move. I believe your body is capable of extraordinary things, but sometimes it needs a little help to get there.

After obtaining both an undergraduate degree with honors in Kinesiology and an advanced degree in a chiropractic graduate program, I consider myself a student for life. Over the years I have continued to advance my education while paying attention to research that has shown the clinical effectiveness of various modalities for treating pain and dysfunction. My goal is to facilitate each patients’ return to optimal function as quickly and effectively as possible. My continued education and advanced certifications are something I pride myself in.

I incorporate various manual therapies and techniques such as joint mobilizations, soft tissue release, acupuncture, myofascial-decompression cupping, Fascial Stretch Techniques, exercise prescription and other electro modalities.

I take pride in having many tools in my tool box -my additional training in various modalities outside of adjusting allows me to individualize treatments, whether you need an adjustment or everything but an adjustment. I aim to provide the best possible treatment for each patient.

Hi, I’m Edyn! I’m a chiropractor dedicated to helping people move better, feel stronger, and live more fully. My lifelong passion for movement and performance began as a competitive dancer and later grew through my work as a personal trainer and instructor at F45. These experiences shaped the dynamic, whole-body approach I bring to chiropractic care today.

For me, true health isn’t just about being pain-free—it’s about having the strength, confidence, and energy to move through life with ease. I’m especially passionate about supporting people in navigating injuries without losing momentum, building resilience, and feeling empowered in their bodies. I work with clients of all kinds—from elite athletes and weekend warriors to busy professionals—helping them stay active, recover from injuries, and prevent setbacks while continuing to do the things they love.

My treatment plans are highly personalized and rooted in evidence-based techniques. I combine manual therapy (including chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, myofascial release, and acupuncture) with functional rehabilitation and patient education to help clients reach their long-term health goals.

Outside the clinic, you’ll usually find me outdoors, running, practicing Pilates, or spending quality time with family and friends.

As a BIPOC immigrant psychotherapist, I’m ready to work with you to navigate through any life challenges that may arise. I look forward to supporting you through any issues related to everyday life, major life transitions, relationships, self-identity, addictions, loss, career/life goals, motivation, anxiety, depression, and stress management. Having worked with our community’s most vulnerable and marginalized over the past 14 years, I know what it feels like to ask yourself why me? Why does this always happen to me? Why do I feel like I am behind everyone else in life? Why do I feel stuck? Good news, you are not alone!

Working with an evidence-based, trauma-informed lens and a client-centered approach, I have a keen focus on utilizing an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, sex-positive, and non-judgmental framework when working with clients. I tend to gravitate towards an eclectic, holistic and integrative therapy style. Since everyone is unique and different, it is key to be able to adapt accordingly.

Let me help you re-ignite the light that has diminished. Rediscover meaning in your life. Heal from past wounds that haven’t fully recovered. Reconnect with what used to and could potentially feel right or make sense for you. When you’re ready, I look forward to embarking on this journey of self-growth and empowerment with you!

Hey there! My name is Olivera (she/her) I’m a Resident Physiotherapist excited to be working at For Health’s Sake! I completed my physiotherapy degree in Vancouver, BC at the University of British Columbia and recently moved back to my home in Toronto.

I’ve always been passionate about physical activity and helping others find ways to move that bring them joy. This passion deepened while living out west where I was surrounded by friends and classmates who share a love for nature and movement. Throughout my life I’ve been fortunate to compete at various levels including representing Canada internationally in Dragon Boat, racing outrigger canoes in the US, and participating in local ice hockey, skiing, and rugby competitions. These experiences have exposed me to a variety of injuries, teaching me valuable lessons about resilience, recovery, and the benefits of physiotherapy.

I understand that injuries or changes in your physical health can be frustrating and impact your mental well-being. During our appointment I’ll take the time to listen to your concerns, complete a thorough assessment, and identify your goals to develop a personalized treatment plan. My approach combines manual therapy techinques - such as stretching, soft tissue release, and joint mobilizations - with exercise and specifically tailored advice to help you return to doing what you love. My goal is to help you feel and move better by working together. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you in making lasting changes to your health.

Therapy should be as unique as the person sitting in front of me. With curiosity, compassion, and empathy I get to know your story, tailoring my approach to meet your specific needs and goals using a culturally sensitive and trauma informed lens.

Building trust together is at the heart of our work, and I will be there as a motivator, encourager, and strong advocate as you navigate life’s challenges and pursue meaningful change.

I believe improved mental health comes from understanding our issues and where they stem from, moving from impulsive and sometimes harmful or hurtful reactions to pausing and allowing for conscious choice of how we want to respond, and learning strategies to relate to our emotions and thoughts with more awareness and balance.

I have extensive experience working with an undergraduate and graduate student population, and am especially passionate about supporting clients through relationship challenges – whether with partners, family, friends, or colleagues – as well as helping those navigate anxiety, depression, self worth, perfectionism, and sleep difficulties.

If you’re curious about working together, I invite you to book a free consultation.

I have always had a long-standing passion for health and wellness. My journey in learning started in Philadelphia where I obtained a Bachelors of Science in Athletic Training, while competing as a varsity volleyball athlete. From there, I obtained a Masters of Osteopathic Manipulative Sciences over a four year, intensive program at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy. Throughout my studies of the structural body, I was very drawn to the energetic components to healing; which led me to complete my reiki training to Reiki Master Healer level. Osteopathy has allowed me to understand the body in a completely different way by embracing the self-healing and self-regulating nature of the body. This is done by working with the soft tissue structures to alleviate restriction of motion, which ultimately improves nerve communication, blood and lymphatic circulation. This principle assists in getting to the root cause of one’s dis-ease, and provides the ability to address a wide range of conditions, from acute to chronic. Both osteopathic manual therapy and reiki combined allow me to see the mechanics of the structural and energetic bodies that provide a complete and holistic approach to healing. My experience in study and athletic competition allow my treatments to be rooted in a sense of compassion, caring and understanding. Outside of my practice, you can find me enjoying time outside with my dog, travelling, or up North at the lake with family and friends!

I dreamed of becoming a doctor to help others, but it wasn’t until my mother’s breast cancer diagnosis that I discovered Naturopathic Medicine. This approach values treating the whole person and finding the root cause of conditions to guide patients through the self-healing process. Through Naturopathic Medicine, I learned to prioritize the unique needs of each individual patient, rather than just focusing on the treatment of their symptoms.

My mission as a Naturopath is to help assist and to see my patients make empowered choices that improve both their health and their quality of life. In order to do this, I partner with patients and dive deeper into their health to help identify and remove barriers to wellness. I provide patients with recommendations that we are both confident they can adhere to. I am here to not only guide and educate you, but to inspire you through this exciting journey of reconnecting to yourself.

Hello! My name is Nicole, and I am a Physiotherapist graduating with a MScPT from The University of Toronto. My passion and vibrancy for physical therapy stems from helping individuals like yourself on their road to recovery. Physical therapy is a broad field with a range of wonderful clinicians and approaches. My goal as a therapist is to genuinely understand you as a person, your lifestyle, and your wants/needs to then implement a whole-body approach. Through my experience, I have found this method works to not only treat the immediate problem, but it also empowers you to implement lasting change in your life and avoid recurring issues.

An assessment is the time where I get to know you as an individual and develop a deeper understanding of what brings you into the clinic. Through open communication, thoughtful listening, and patient education, we can develop a personalized treatment plan to get you back to doing the things you love. It is my personal goal to motivate you during this process and ensure you get the most out of every session. I love to implement different therapeutic techniques I’ve learned along the way to tackle any uptake barriers you may face. Whether you need a personalized weekly exercise schedule, accountability reminders, equipment-less exercises, manual therapy, a mindfulness-based program etc., the possibilities are endless. I have an active approach to care, meaning I’ll provide you with the tools and exercises you need to effectively rehabilitate the problem. I enjoy working with all of my patients, but it is ultimately my goal that you become independent with the tools I’ve provided and can continue forward by implementing them into your routine.

I look forward to meeting you and getting you back to the life you love, or better yet, one you’ve always desired but did not think was possible!

Growing up in competitive dance, I had my fair share of injuries, and spent countless hours in clinics - which led me to my first job as a physio assistant 20 years ago. It was an easy choice to complete my Kinesiology degree through McMaster, and immediately continued my studies through Sutherland Chan’s Massage Therapy Program.

I’ve always had a deep interest in movement of the human body, injury prevention, and rehabilitation, and after 12 years of practice as an RMT, I am lucky to still absolutely love my work!

With an emphasis on mind-body wellness and balance, I focus on determining the causes of discomfort to identify how best to treat symptoms. I’m experienced in deep tissue massage, spinal cord injuries and neurological conditions, pre and postnatal massage, sports massage, and full body maintenance.

Always keen to keep learning and have taken additional courses to incorporate Cupping, Graston Technique, Fascial Stretch Therapy and CranioSacral Therapy.

Born in Toronto and raised in the Caribbean, my diverse professional journey began as a sailor and caterer chef. In my early twenties, I transitioned to becoming a yoga instructor, where I developed a passion for healthy food preparation and holistic wellness. My experiences spanned from working in the Caribbean to the Eastern seaboard of the USA, with a significant time based in Newport, RI.

With a Bachelor of Health Science, I have combined my expertise in health science, fitness, and nutrition to achieve remarkable physical and mental health transformations. Returning to Canada in 2016, I deepened my studies in nutrition and health care, ultimately discovering my true passion in Registered Massage Therapy (RMT). My previous knowledge and clinical training provided a strong foundation for my RMT practice, allowing me to integrate information effectively and confidently apply treatment modalities and orthopedic testing.

In my massage therapy practice, I offer a unique blend of wellness and therapeutic modalities, always prioritizing a client-centered and evidence-based approach. My techniques focus on intention and specificity, providing deep, targeted work complemented by relaxation methods. I firmly believe in the connection between stress, mental health, and illness, which has guided my interest in the psychoneuroimmunological applications of massage therapy.

I am dedicated to continuous learning, particularly in manual therapy techniques and yoga studies, with aspirations to pursue a master’s and Ph.D. in Kinesiology/Clinical Psychology by 2029. My commitment to professional growth ensures that I bring the latest and most effective practices to my clients.

I look forward to working together and being a part of your health journey.

If you wake up and dread having to start your day- let’s talk. Whether it is work, school, home or even your relationships, life seems to keep throwing you challenges that you don’t want or know how to manage. It’s starting to feel like you’re stuck in a never-ending pattern.

And as humans, we often do function on autopilot and get caught in cycles of behaviour that we know aren’t healthy or good for us, but we just can’t seem to stop. How is it that we can be so aware and feel so powerless at the same time?

What if I told you that it’s not your fault and that human brains are actually wired that way for an important reason?

As your therapist, my mission is to help you recognize, understand and challenge the behaviours that no longer serve you and work on new evidence-based strategies that do. With nearly a decade of experience in neuroscience and physiology research, I’m here to help you bridge the gap between your mind, brain, and body so that we can put your self-awareness to use.

Whether you want to figure out your relationship, re-balance your life, take control of your emotions, or stand against your inner critic, breaking free from this cycle will allow you to finally live the life that you want to be living. Let’s begin this journey together to change how your thoughts and behaviour shape your experience of the world.

Hi, I’m Katie! RMT and Co-Founder of For Health’s Sake! I grew up in a small beach town in Southern Ontario before moving to Toronto to start school and later my career. I always knew from a young age that I wanted to help people and work in health & wellness. I began my journey in Massage Therapy by gaining experience in various settings, but I discovered my true passion in multi-disciplinary clinics. Here, I’ve seen my clients achieve the best results through the combination of both eastern and western treatment practices.

Having worked many years in various clinics, I gained experience by treating a variety of clients, from the injured athlete to the office worker. I tailor the treatment by assessing client symptoms, posture, and pain patterns. In addition to treating an injured area or area of pain or discomfort, I look at the entire body as a whole and treat other areas that have been affected by compensating.

My treatment style consists mostly of swedish techniques, deep tissue, passive stretching, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and cupping. I modify the pressure to my clients’ preference and I also offer aromatherapy treatments where I integrate essential oils within the massage to amplify the experience. Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Massage is my newest passion and addition to my services. I was trained in the Renata Franca method that came straight from Brazil.

I started For Health’s Sake with my business partner, Chloe, in 2018. I split my time as an RMT between both our clinics, and outside of that, I work from home managing them. I’m obsessed with health & fitness and I’ve always been very active. I love coffee, travelling, cooking, interior decorating, hanging out with my dog, spending time with my family, and trying new food places.
