4worldlovers: Founded 150 years ago by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, Osteopathy teaches us that body is a self-healing unit with a close correlation between structure and function and in order to recover functionality, one should fix structure. Osteopathic techniques enable body to recover itself in a natural way. It has been shown through research that osteopathy is the best option for chronic back pain. It will help you to reach your maximal range of motion, while enjoying a pain-free life.

I recently had a back pain treatment which helped me heal an old back discomfort that I was holding on to for years. he, lead me through a therapeutic session, and helped me feel better after a few sessions. After the treatment, I felt as if a heavy presence was removed from back. It was a great feeling!”

“Given the opportunity of trying out an osteopath for my body pain, seeing ‘Seyed’ has given me new hope. His sincere teaching and ability to assess body dynamics gives him a proud and humble inner self worth to be proud of, and makes the client see how he enjoys his profession. Continue on, in believing in yourself and make the world that much better with your methods of teaching, learning, and healing our body’s pain we go through.”

“My sessions with Mehrbod have been a life-changing experience. I went to see him because of my back pain but I also suffered from chronic neck pain. After only a couple of sessions, I noticed significant and meaningful improvements which have been lasting. Aside from his forward thinking on healing practices, what separates him from every other practitioner (and I have seen numerous of them during the last thirty years) is the thoughtful approach he takes in skillfully addressing your health issues. The calibre of his treatments convey his breadth of knowledge, life experience, and sense of compassion. As other reviewers have stated, he truly has a genuine interest in your healing process, and I am wholeheartedly grateful to Mehrbod for helping me live a pain free life! I would highly recommend him to everyone”

I can only recommend this place. My sessions with Mehrbod were great and brought me relief. He is very knowledgeable and also do the viscerals so it was very helpful for my situation. After 2 sessions I can eat quite normally again and my neck has more mobility. He takes the time and explains everything clearly. Thank you so much.

“I would recommend this place to everyone. I was diagnosed with TMJ disorder and locked jaw and could barely open my mouth, let alone eat much. After only 2 sessions with Mehrbod, I was able to open my mouth and eat again. It was the first time I began to feel hopeful in my condition. Not only did I see results, Mehrbod is an osteopath who genuinely cares about his patients and want to help them be pain free. He is very knowledgeable and hands-on in your healing journey and is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met!”

As an international graduate medical doctor, I have seen many people suffering from chronic pain back in my country during my practice and all I could offer was medicine. When I came to Canada and get familiar with manual osteopathy, I have realized that this art could be the solution so I chose to become a osteopathic manual practitioner as I believe that manual osteopathy do wonders.

At the Vancouver Osteopathy Centre, we are passionate about Osteopathy and are dedicated to deliver excellent care to all of our clients.


Osteopathic manipulative treatment is a structural treatment using techniques that mobilise your joints and release restrictions in your fascia, muscles and ligaments. Osteopathic Practitioners use many gentle techniques and are a safe choice for all ages and stages – from newborns to the elderly. These techniques reduce pain, help with alignment and mobility and decompress blood vessels and nerves.

Osteopathic Practitioners have learned to palpate a craniosacral rhythmic motion of approximately eight to twelve cycles per minute. This movement is present throughout life and can be felt anywhere in the body. It is believed to be caused by the production and re-absorption of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and other fluids in the brain and spinal cord. Craniosacral therapy can have a profound calming effect on the nervous system.

There are basically two motions: mobility and motility. Mobility is an organ’s ability to move in response to the body in motion, such as during walking or in response to the movement of the diaphragm during respiration. Motility is an inherent motion of the organ and is a memory of the spiraling movements that occur during embryological development. Visceral Manipulation can improve organ function and digestion.

Osteopathic treatment during pregnancy is safe and gentle. It can help dissipate the pain and discomfort of postural changes that occur in the second and third trimester with the increasing weight of your developing child.

Osteopathy can really help infants and children. Children are not nearly as resilient to injury as we think, and strains and structural tensions early in life become incorporated into the growing body. “As the twig is bent so it grows.”

Has carrying the kids on your hip left you feeling like a corkscrew?

We want you to heal, to experience again the joy of easy fluidic movement in your body and get you back in your game – whatever that game may be. Be it pushing that double stroller up that hill or pushing yourself to reach your personal best...

If you need help surviving the marathon of life, Osteopathy just might be the answer.

Do you feel like some therapies target your sore area without assessing you as a whole? Have you tried other therapies but are still in pain or discomfort?

Some osteopathic techniques target deep relaxation. A deep breath is taken and the autonomic nervous system begins to calm – so rare these days with life's increasing stress and demands.

Not only are people waiting to exhale, they seem to be waiting to inhale.
