Teya is a classically trained Osteopathic Manual Practitioner. She obtained her Masters in Osteopathic Manipulative Sciences from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy and is a licensed board certified member with the Ontario Osteopathic Association (OSTCAN).
Teya had always been drawn to nutrition, fitness, and human behaviour, which led her to pursue an undergraduate education in the field of health. In 2011, she graduated with honours in Health Science and Psychology from Western University. During this time she gained experience working in rehabilitative clinical settings, personal training, and was involved with developing and implementing health promotion programs. This experience, along side her own personal struggle with injuries, led her to explore different modalities of treatment.

She graduated from The Canadian Academy of Osteopathy in 2016. There, she gained a deep understanding of osteopathic principles and more extensive knowledge on mechanics, anatomy, and physiology of the human body. Most importantly her education equipped her with problem-solving skills required to successfully treat a diverse range of musculoskeletal and physiological problems.
Teya gets great satisfaction improving the health and well-being of patients suffering from both acute and chronic issues. She has experience and enjoys working with all age groups. Her focus now has become furthering her training in paediatrics and peri/postnatal care. She is continually striving to expand her knowledge in the field by regularly attending industry training.
