These may include musculoskeletal injuries, chronic pain, stress, headaches, and postural imbalances.

Acupuncture in Ontario is a therapeutic practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that involves inserting fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body to promote healing, reduce pain, and enhance overall well-being. Acupuncturists in Ontario are regulated healthcare professionals who must be registered with the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of Ontario (CTCMPAO).

This treatment modality is used to address a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, migraines, stress, digestive issues, and hormonal imbalances. Acupuncture works by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, improving circulation, and balancing the flow of energy, or "qi," within the body.

Each session begins with a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s health history and current symptoms. Based on this evaluation, the acupuncturist develops a personalized treatment plan that may include acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, and lifestyle recommendations. Many extended health insurance plans in Ontario cover acupuncture services, making it accessible for patients seeking alternative and complementary treatment options.


Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and heal... Read More

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."

Qi gong is a traditional Chinese practice combining movement, meditation, and controlled breathing to balance the body's vital energy (Qi). Qi gong classes involve gentle exercises tailored to health needs, focusing on relaxation and improved Qi flow. In Qi gong treatment, practitioners diagnose and prescribe specific exercises, breathing techniques, and meditation to address imbalances in the patient's Qi. Hands-on healing may be used to manipulate energy flow, and patients are guided in self-practice for long-term well-being. While Qi gong is beneficial for overall health, it should complement, not replace, conventional medical care, and individuals should consult healthcare professionals for comprehensive treatment.

Ivan is a graduate of Sutherland Chan School of Massage Therapy.

Before starting his massage journey, his passion for sports and rehabilitation, along with recovering from his own injuries with the help of a dedicated health team, inspired him to pursue a degree in Kinesiology from York University, culminating in becoming a Registered Kinesiologist. With this knowledge, he was able to provide functional exercise programs to empower patients on a path to recovery, work, and doing the things they love.

As an RMT, he utilizes a variety of techniques, blending Swedish and Thai massage, myofascial release, stretching, and joint manipulation to assess and identify the root cause of symptoms. He supplements treatment with functional exercises that are incorporated into your day. This allows him to create a treatment plan tailored to improving specific needs. Whether someone is seeking a massage for relaxation, pain management, or relief from aches caused by work and hobbies, he thrives on helping people relax, recover, and feel light on their feet.

In his free time, Ivan loves to read, bake (and share his baked goods so he doesn’t eat them all himself), play badminton, and watch the Leafs. He’s looking forward to starting hiking and camping so he can explore Ontario!
