Marie Baker is an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner whose goal is to help improve the function of your body to allow it to heal.

Marie graduated from The Canadian Academy of Osteopathy’s 4-year Masters of Practice Diploma in Osteopathic Manual Sciences (M. OMSc) program in 2017. Before making this career change, she worked in the health and wellness industry as an esthetician and reflexologist for over 15 years. This gave her a passion for health and wellness on many levels, which ultimately brought her on a path to help people on a deeper level.

Over the years Marie has worked with a large variety of patients from many different backgrounds. Bodies than have danced, played hockey, worked in trades or in offices. Bodies that are young and bodies that have a long life of use. Pregnant bodies and post-partum bodies. Treatment can be helpful at all the different stages of life.

Marie has always had a strong interest in mental health and through osteopathy the connection between the mind and the body. In 2021 Marie completed the Advanced Principles and Practice of Mindfulness program through the McMaster University Continuing Education and Hoame partnership course Mindfulness in Modern Society.

In 2022 Marie completed her first 200-hour Yoga Teach Training and Level 1 Trauma Informed Movement through Heal Evolve Thrive. Marie has had a personal yoga practice for over 20 years and with the knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and osteopathic thought process combined with the knowledge gained through yoga teacher training she is excited to see how she can help you on your health and wellness journey.

Marie has a passion for learning, is an avid reader, a lover of history (she originally wanted to be an archeologist!) and has a deep love for nature and can often been found hiking, birdwatching and camping with her husband and her dog.
