Danforth East Wellness is a beautiful clinic focused on your healthcare. We provide chiropractic, registered massage therapy, craniosacral therapy, acupuncture, psychotherapy, lactation and infant feeding support, and prenatal classes, in Toronto’s East end.
Chiropractic care
Our registered chiropractic approach combines traditional techniques with soft tissue work. We believe in tailoring treatments specifically for each individual, according to their comfort. We create treatments that are collaborative between patient and doctor, which encompass seeing the patient as a whole. We also offer additional services to support the care and progress of our patients. At our disposal, we have orthotics, electrotherapy, exercise, and stretching recommendations, pre/post maternal care, and newborn care. Yoga therapy is also available to patients, where individualized sessions help to improve patient progress.
Massage therapy
Our registered massage therapy addresses a variety of conditions including back, neck and shoulder pain, headaches, sprains and strains, lymphedema, and issues arising from pregnancy. After treatment self-care suggestions such as stretching and strengthening are given to support continued wellness. We are also able to offer hot stone massage as an option for care.
Craniosacral therapy
Our craniosacral therapy, provided by an RMT, is a gentle approach to pain and tension and addresses imbalances in the body. The work is effective with a wide range of conditions and is very well suited to newborn needs.
Licensed Acupuncture
Our acupuncture is provided by a licensed chiropractor and is useful in a variety of conditions as either a primary therapy or as an adjunctive therapy.
Scar Tissue Release Therapy
STRT uses low-level electrical impulses to stimulate cellular activity. It reduces and fades scar tissue, adhesions and restrictions.
Rosen Method Bodywork
Rosen Method Bodywork helps people reclaim their connection to their bodies and emotional selves through touch, sensing and feeling.
Counselling (Psychotherapy)
Psychotherapy is primarily a talk-based therapy and is intended to help people improve and maintain their mental health and well-being. The therapist and client enter into a psychotherapeutic relationship where both work together to bring about positive change in the client’s thinking, feeling, behaviour, and social functioning. Individuals usually seek psychotherapy when they have thoughts, feelings, moods and behaviours that are adversely affecting their day-to-day lives, relationships and the ability to enjoy life.
Lactation and Infant Feeding Support
Our lactation and infant feeding support is provided by an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Sessions are individualized to support all families with their unique feeding goals, whether it’s chest or breastfeeding, bottle feeding, pumping, weaning and/or introducing solid foods.
Prenatal Education
Our prenatal education sessions are provided by a certified Childbirth Educator, Doula, and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Sessions can be run in both private or semi private formats. Topics include Birth Preparation, Postpartum and Baby Preparation and Lactation and Infant Feeding Preparation.
