Where did the name "Soul Work" come from?
It’s kind of like the name chose us.
​
As people who have spent our entire adult lives immersed in learning about the body and all of its’ intricate workings, we have slowly but surely become what we do.
​
We take our own learned experiences, be it physical pain, mental health struggles, relationship twists and turns, a muscle spasm, a car crash, a concussion, childbirth - (you name it, we’ve probably tried it), and analyze every angle so that we can truly, deeply understand what happened and how we healed from it, and then we bring those deeper understandings into our work.
Why? To help others with what we have learned. To help you.
We live and breathe this world.
​
This isn’t just a job for us, this is a life purpose.
​
This is our Soul Work.

Lisa Woods
Osteopathic Manual Practitioner
I am a quiet spoken person who has followed my soul's path in search of answers for myself and for those who have come to me for help.
My role as your therapist is to support you where you are, and to help facilitate the change you seek in the direction of healing. I will be present with whatever part of you is asking for attention and care.
​
I have 3 main areas of special interest:
​
1.) treating newborn babies who had a rough entry into the world
​
2.) treating those who struggle with concussion symptoms from head or body trauma
​
3.) using osteopathy to acknowledge and treat areas of the body where emotional trauma is being held, and may be subsequently causing somatic dysfunction

Osteopathic Manual Practitioner
The world is full of fragmented therapies that focus on individual systems or regions, but the body is more complex than that. I'll work hard to help you feel your best by restoring your body to a state of balance, integrating function between all of your complex systems.
I practice with honesty and integrity, and I work hard to empower my clients with the knowledge they need to create positive change in their own lives. Over the course of my career, I have experienced and learned from a wide range unique scenarios as an Osteopathic manual practitioner, a clinic owner, a husband and a father. These experiences have helped to guide me in my search for a deeper understanding of the human experience, how we are affected by our environments, thoughts, and activities, and how we can overcome the obstacles that we are confronted with in life.
Concussion
Osteopathic treatment can be used to help those recovering from concussion injuries, new or old.

Osteopathy
Osteopathic practitioners listen
​
We listen with our hands, our minds and our intuition.
​
We are trained to respectfully palpate & communicate with every bone, joint, tissue, organ, brain, fluid (and more), so that we can understand what may be the underlying cause of what's bothering you, and help gently guide whatever is in dysfunction to a more comfortable way of being.
We are skilled in understanding human anatomy (structures), physiology (functions) and the interconnectedness of it all.

Cranio-Sacral Therapy
Osteopathic cranio-sacral therapy is an integral part of our approach
​
Treatment is about much more than just feeling relaxed.
​
It is meant to remove or reduce maladaptive tension around the brain, spinal cord, spinal nerves and cerebral spinal fluid in order to assist the nerve signals to function​ at their best.
​
We have taken additional courses through the Canadian College of Osteopathy to be able to assist those with old or new concussion injuries.
