- Introduction
- Lyndsay Sayers is a registered massage therapist and osteopathic manual therapist. She graduated from the Okanagan Valley College of Massage Therapy in 2001, and the Collège d'Études Ostéopathiques in 2010. Lyndsay is very passionate about her work and has a strong interest in bringing the health out in people.
Lyndsay enjoys her general practice treating patients from all ages and stages in life. She has seen positive results working with specific problems such as fatigue, stress, neck and shoulder pain, headaches, digestive problems, cranial nerve dysfunction, chronic joint pain, musculoskeletal disorders, and posture misalignment. Promoting a healthy and active lifestyle, Lyndsay enjoys keeping patients mobile by treating the neck back, hip, knee and ankle/foot problems, and administering tune-ups for general life or during pregnancy.
Hailing from a strong sports therapy background, Lyndsay has also achieved success treating triathletes, marathon runners, mountain and road bike racers, sports fishermen, skiers, snowboarders, outrigger racers, and equestrian riders. To complete her diploma of osteopathy, Lyndsay successfully defended her thesis on “The Short-Term Effect of Osteopathic Treatment on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness and Recovery After Exercise”, in which she found evidence for osteopathy in speeding up recovery. Osteopathy addresses all systems in the body; therefore, the results are limitless concerning the conditions it can help. Tensions or stress prevent our bodies from functioning at its best, causing us to feel symptoms such as aches, pains, and imbalances in our bodies. Osteopathic techniques help to remove these stresses and bring the body into a more harmonious state and optimal balance. Lyndsay uses common osteopathic techniques such as cranial sacral therapy, visceral manipulation, muscle energy and fascial release.
Patients are welcome book with Lyndsay for massage therapy or osteopathic appointments.
In her free time Lyndsay enjoys biking, yoga and any excuse to spend time outside.
