Eve-Laure is originally from Bordeaux, France, and graduated from the Parisian osteopathic school HOLISTEA in 2010. After setting up and developing two osteopathic practices in France over a ten-year period, she decided to pursue her practice in Montreal, where she has now been for four years.
With 14 years of experience under her belt and a passion for her work, Eve-Laure has asserted her expertise and osteopathic skills, which she strives to pass on and share. Keen to continue training on a regular basis, she has taken part in numerous post-graduate courses, notably in pediatrics and pre- and post-partum.
Thanks to her in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology, Eve-Laure can perceive her patients' tensions and imbalances through precise and meticulous palpation, both for the treatment of symptoms and for the improvement of overall health. She is also accustomed to working in collaboration with other healthcare professionals, developing team spirit and intra- and inter-professional communication for optimal care.
Eve-Laure's osteopathic practice is gentle, and she makes it a point of honour to listen actively and sympathetically to her patients.
Osteopathy is above all a therapy that considers the whole human being, with his or her physical and mechanical capacities, but also his or her ability to think and feel.
As well as graduating from the École Supérieure d'Ostéopathie de Paris in 2018, Audrey holds a Master 2 in Psychology and Movement Neuroscience from the Université Paris Nanterre.
During this double degree course, she studied the impact of our environment on our movements and our ability to move. Understanding the environment in which we live, with its habits and emotions, plays an important role in the management of each individual's pain. Listening and caring are therefore essential qualities in her osteopathic practice. Establishing a climate of trust is essential for effective treatment, and can generate positive emotions that are part of the healing dynamic.
As a traveller, she found the opportunity to practice with an NGO in Cambodia, where she was able to offer her osteopathic treatments to students at a circus school, helping them recover from intensive training or injury. Back in France, she continued to provide osteopathic care in the sports field to a rugby team, guiding them during training sessions and on the field during competitions. She is therefore familiar with the challenges and impact of the sporting environment on the human body and the consequences of trauma. Having also practiced osteopathy in city clinics, hospitals and maternity wards, Audrey can treat adults, children, infants and pregnant women.
Pierre's journey in sports began with a passion for competitive swimming, which eventually led him to explore martial arts. His regular engagement in sports sparked an interest in the biomechanics of the human body, prompting him to train as a fitness instructor. With years of experience as a fitness instructor and kickboxing coach, and working in health and sports centers in Montreal and Europe, Pierre has built a solid foundation in physical conditioning, posture, physical rehabilitation, and functional fitness. This diverse experience allows him to cater to a wide range of clients' needs.
He then pursued osteopathy studies at the Collège d'Études Ostéopathiques in Montreal, where he completed a research project on the effects of osteopathic treatment on upper limb issues and insomnia.
His research focused specifically on carpal tunnel syndrome, a common neurological condition, and chronic insomnia. The extensive experience he gained enabled him to develop a pragmatic approach to addressing concrete problems with personalized solutions. Pierre emphasizes a biomechanical, effective, and precise therapeutic approach while remaining attentive to his patients.
Years of meditation practice have broadened his understanding of personal growth, allowing him to adopt a holistic view of individuals.
The body is a sophisticated system, made to move, to feel, to reflect, and to wonder. It can act in ways that benefit us, safeguard us, and allow us to outperform ourselves. It serves as our best ally because it enables us to take action and move toward what is most important to us. Movement is undeniably its most powerful support. Its greatest quality is a sense of rhythm and an ability to activate and awaken in order to maintain its vital functions, then return to relaxation at exactly the right moment. All of this is done with pinpoint accuracy in response to the internal rhythms that govern it.
However, there comes a time when its greatest quality can also become its greatest flaw.
It starts to show signs of weakness when its rhythms are no longer respected and when we no longer listen to them.
The key to health lies in our ability to not only be aware of our bodies and their rhythms, but also in our ability to honor and prioritize them.
Originally from Montreal, Vincent traveled for 15 years, working as a circus performer and farmworker. Osteopathy has changed his life by helping him heal from the multiple injuries he sustained during his adventures.
Wishing to share the well-being that osteopathy provides with others, he returned to school at 35 years old. He is equally at ease with acute and chronic pain, has an affinity with athletes, the elderly and is particularly comfortable with the treatment of concussions and TMJ (jaw) pain.
Nika did her university studies in medical biology and then turned to osteopathy, having a strong interest in the biomechanics of the body and alternative therapeutic approaches. She graduated from the Collège d'Études Ostéopathiques de Montréal in 2016 from the full-time program. She has focused her clinical expertise on women's and children's health, more specifically in perinatal osteopathy and in postural rehabilitation for women, in postpartum and in general.
Nika's final research project focused on the effect of the global osteopathic approach on vulvar lichen sclerosus symptoms. Having practiced classical ballet Cecchetti for more than 15 years, she has also participated in several training sessions that allow her to accompany a clientele wishing to refine their athletic posture, prevent injuries and relieve their discomfort during sports. She has also been involved in several social projects, providing osteopathic care to a community in need, such as in Arequipa, Peru. She applies her professionalism and therapeutic rigor in her practice, while being warm and caring in her approach.
Originally from the Mauricie region, Véronique spent a large part of her childhood and adolescence on sports teams, particularly basketball, until she went to university. Having completed 2 years of a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology, she went on to do a Bachelor's degree in Physiotherapy in 2000.
She has specialized her practice in musculoskeletal injuries (fracture, tendonitis, bursitis, capsulitis, herniated disc, sciatica). She has steadily pursued continuing education in musculoskeletal care and went on to get a diploma in physiotherapeutic puncture with dry needling in 2013, as well as specialized training for TMJ (jaw) and headache, and of course, manual therapy courses.
Since 2011, she has been a clinical instructor in medicine at the University of Montreal. She fills the rest of her schedule with additional opportunities, such as monitoring Cirque du Soleil performers for the Trois-Rivières performances.
After graduating with a Doctorate in Chiropractic from the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières in 2013, Gabriel has had the opportunity since the beginning of his career to meet with different health professionals and to refine his techniques of muscle work and chiropractic adjustments. He treats each patient as he would like to be treated, taking into account the pains and issues that everyone experiences, including children, athletes, and people with disabilities.
Empathetic and passionate about making things accessible, he ensures that each patient understands their problem. He seeks out ways to give them tips and exercises that are easy to integrate into a busy life, with the goal of establishing a continuity of wellness even after the treatments.
In 2004, during a sports massage class, Evelyne met an acupuncturist who greatly influenced her interest in this alternative medicine. This was very timely as Evelyne, who already practiced as a massotherapist, was looking for another field of study that would complement her knowledge. In 2007, she obtained her diploma in acupuncture from Rosemont College and went on to do a several-week-long internship in China, more precisely in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. Since then, she has been working with a varied clientele: athletes of all levels, pregnant women, children, elderly people, patients suffering from chronic pain, etc.
Over the years, she has participated in many acupuncture seminars: gynecology and obstetrics, dietetics, sports acupuncture, dry needling and trigger points, pediatrics, cupping, cranial acupuncture for neurological and psychosomatic conditions, Qi Gong and fertility, aesthetic acupuncture, and more. She has also gained experience treating professional athletes, including circus performers, runners and cyclists.
Her areas of interest remain musculoskeletal and chronic pain management, women's health and fertility, digestive disorders, and nutrition. Evelyne is also comfortable treating more common complaints such as headaches, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and allergies.
Generous, empathetic, and motivated, this therapist offers an attentive ear to each person who consults her in order to respond adequately to their needs.

Having practiced various sports from an early age and sought the guidance of many healthcare professionals to treat various injuries, Karim has always appreciated the therapeutic relationship between a professional and their client. This is one of the reasons that prompted him to pursue training in massage therapy and a diploma in athletic therapy simultaneously. The combination of these two qualifications has enabled him to develop excellent palpation skills and a deep understanding of human anatomy and various injuries, both acute and chronic, to best meet your needs. His journey has taught him various techniques such as stretching, mobilization, and myofascial release, which he incorporates into his sessions to achieve better results.
His experience in spas has provided him with the opportunity to refine his approach to Swedish massage and relaxation, while his various clinical placements with collegiate and university athletes have allowed him to develop his therapeutic side. Always attentive, whether it is for a simple relaxation massage, chronic pain, or a recent injury, Karim will adapt his techniques to help you regain comfort and resume your activities pain-free.
