She continued her education by completing an intensive 4-year program at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) in Toronto and graduated as a Doctor of Chiropractic. She is a member of the College of Chiropractors of Ontario, Ontario Chiropractic Association and with the Canadian Chiropractic Association.
Before University Dr. Bahry occupied the majority of her time on the rink as a National Junior Competitive Figure Skater. It was through her figure skating that she became fascinated with movement and body mechanics. After sustaining a complete rupture of her ACL ligament she began to coach intermediate level figure skaters and found her passion for working with people to optimize their potentials.
Throughout university and while obtaining her doctorate in chiropractic Dr. Bahry dedicated her time to becoming physically fit through a combination of Yoga, Contemporary Dance and Functional Strength-Training. By doing so she created mind-body awareness and by maintaining this belief her focus of treatment is on the restoration of the entire body’s physical function.
Dr. Bahry’s expertise in biomechanics and the neuromusculoskeletal system has allowed her to successfully care for patients with a wide variety of conditions. She utilizes a holistic approach where the entire body is treated and not just the symptoms. Since injury can result in undesirable dysfunctional joints that alter the biomechanics of your movement and can in many cases ultimately lead to negative symptoms Dr. Bahry will evaluate the entire body’s physical function through a comprehensive and structured approach.
By combining the hands-on-techniques of Chiropractic Adjustments & Mobilizations, Active Release Techniques, Therapeutic & Cosmetic Acupuncture and Functional Stretching & Strengthening Exercises Dr. Bahry implements individualized patient centered care in order to provide the patient with the ability to achieve optimal levels of health and wellness. In keeping with her holistic approach to health, Dr. Bahry works in collaboration with other health care professionals to ensure that her patients receive the best multi-disciplinary care possible.”][team_member image_url=”20″ team_memeber_style=”meta_below” link_element=”none” color=”Accent-Color” name=”Angela Garrett” job_position=”Registered Massage Therapist” description=”Angela Garrett is our Registered Massage Therapist & has been practicing since 2005.

In January 2012 Angela added a new modality into her massage therapy practice. Energy within the body has always fascinated her, so she decided to get certified for Reiki level 1. Reiki is an alternative touch therapy believed to be founded in Tibet and later introduced into Japan. It is a form of meditation that is used to treat physical and mental ailments. In English reiki means universal life energy. The practitioner uses light touch to channel energy to the recipient. Reiki works on a physical, mental, and emotional level by restoring the lost balance between mind, body and spirit. I look forward to incorporating techniques learned form reiki into my massage therapy practice.“”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default”][team_member team_memeber_style=”meta_below” link_element=”none” color=”Accent-Color” name=”Claire Voigt” job_position=”Registered Massage Therapist” description=”Claire Voigt is a Registered Massage Therapist who has been practicing since 2012.
