Chronic Pain · Nervous System Recovery · Performance LongevityPersistent pain is not who you are.
It is a habit your nervous system learned.
A 12-week programme (Regulate, Rewire, Empower) built to get you to the point where you no longer need me. If you do the work and your numbers don’t move, you don’t pay. Single osteopathy sessions and workshops for teams are also available.
My ApproachWhy most persistent pain keeps coming back
Pain is not always a signal of damage. For many people, it is a habit the nervous system has learned. And habits can be unlearned.
The starting pointStress is at the centre
Most people who come to see me have already tried the usual routes: physio, massage, chiropractic, maybe surgery. And still live with pain that does not make sense to them. My job is to help you understand why, and to give you the tools to change it.
Osteopathic Manual Therapy (OMT) is one of my tools, but the nervous system is always in the room. OMT helps regulate the nervous system directly, calming the sensitised responses that keep pain alive long after any tissue injury has healed.
Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) works directly on the brain's learned pain pathways. The research is strong: in one randomised controlled trial, 66% of participants with chronic back pain were pain-free or nearly pain-free after four weeks.
Strength training closes the loop. A body that is stronger, more mobile, and more capable trusts itself more. That trust is not a metaphor. It is a measurable reduction in perceived threat.
None of these works well in isolation. Sleep, nutrition, social connection, emotional patterns, and meaning all shape the threat level your nervous system is running at. The programme accounts for all of them.
My servicesWhere would you like to start?
Whether you need hands-on care for a specific problem or a structured path out of long-standing pain, there is a place to begin.
Single SessionOsteopathic Manual Therapy
A 60-minute hands-on session combining osteopathic manual therapy (OMT) and movement assessment. The right door for acute pain, a specific musculoskeletal problem, or people who have finished the programme and want occasional maintenance.
12-Week ProgrammeThe Compass Protocol
REGULATE⠀·⠀REWIRE⠀·⠀EMPOWER
A structured path for persistent or neuroplastic pain. We calm your nervous system, retrain your brain's pain response, and rebuild your physical capacity across three phases and twelve weeks.
Corporate and TeamsCorporate Workshops
Science-backed workshops for teams that want to perform better. Talks and workshops on stress, persistent pain, performance longevity, productivity, focus, emotional regulation, and change management for organisations and real working environments.
Client TestimonialsWhat people say after the work
Real results from people who came in with pain that had not responded to anything else.
Organisations I have worked with
A way out existsChronic pain does not have to be a life sentence.
Most people with persistent pain have been told to manage it, work around it, or learn to live with it. That is not good enough.
The nervous system that learned to amplify pain can be guided to do something different. That is the work we do here, with a built-in guarantee: complete the twelve weeks, do the work, and if your own numbers have not moved, you do not pay for it. A free 45-minute consultation is where we find out if this is the right fit for you.

DO, BSc Kinesiology⠀·⠀PRT Practitioner (in training)
Originally from Montreal, I completed a BSc in Kinesiology at the University of Sherbrooke before training as an osteopath at the Swiss International College of Osteopathy. I spent more than 13 years as a captain in the Canadian Armed Forces before moving to Finland in 2022. I now practice in Turku, working with people whose pain has outlasted every explanation they have been given.
My work sits at the intersection of osteopathic manual therapy, neuroscience, and progressive movement training, because in my experience, you need all three to get people fully out of pain.
When I am not at the office, I am usually working out, outside in nature, or reading something on the human body. The curiosity does not stop at the clinic door.
