Conditions I Treat — What I Help With

​

Osteopathy can help reduce pain, improve mobility, and restore better balance in the body. Here are the most common issues I treat in my practice in downtown Toronto:

​

Neck pain, stiffness & reduced mobility
Often linked to posture, desk work or tension in the upper back.

​

Low back pain & sciatica
Frequently caused by joint restrictions, muscular imbalances or nerve irritation.

​

Shoulder pain & limited mobility
Often related to scapular mechanics, posture, or compensation patterns in the thoracic spine.

​

Headaches & migraines
Commonly associated with tension in the cervical spine, stress, or restricted mobility in the upper back.

BACK PAIN & FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY
My chronic back pain disappeared, and Julien’s calm, empathetic approach made all the difference.
— Lynn D.

​

CHRONIC PAIN & MOBILITY
Each adjustment improves my mobility and helps manage my chronic pain. Highly grateful.
— Andres C.

​

WHOLE-BODY OSTEOPATHIC CARE
A truly exceptional osteopath — skilled, thoughtful, and gifted in whole-body care.
— Emily E.

Julien Rives is a manual osteopath based in Downtown Toronto, offering osteopathic treatment for back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, sciatica, sports injuries and posture-related issues. Treatments focus on restoring mobility, reducing pain and improving overall function through a hands-on, individualized approach.

My approach

A WHOLE-BODY APPROACH ROOTED IN 17+ YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

​

After more than 17 years treating patients in Europe and Toronto, one thing has become clear: the body never works in isolation.
Every tension, every discomfort, every limitation reflects a deeper mechanical pattern — in the way you move, stabilize, breathe, or compensate.
My work is to understand those patterns with precision and guide your body back toward balance.

​

IDENTIFYING THE ROOT CAUSE, NOT CHASING SYMPTOMS

​

Pain is rarely the true source of the problem.
I look at how your thoracic spine influences the neck and shoulders, how a shortened psoas affects the pelvis and lower back, how scapular mechanics impact shoulder mobility, and how old compensations create new restrictions over time.
By addressing the real cause — not just where it hurts — the body can finally move the way it’s meant to.

​

TECHNIQUES CHOSEN WITH INTENTION

​

Each session blends gentle joint mobilizations, soft-tissue work, muscle-energy techniques, and precise hands-on adjustments tailored to your body that day.
The goal is always the same:
restore fluid movement, reduce compensation, and create long-term change.
I take the time to explain what I find and why it matters, so you understand your body as we work together.

​

CALM, FOCUSED, AND PATIENT-CENTRED TREATMENT

​

My style is steady, attentive, and never rushed.
I create a calm environment where your nervous system can settle — because meaningful change happens when the body feels safe.
This is often why patients notice improvement faster than they expect.

​

LONG-LASTING RESULTS THROUGH PRECISION, NOT FORCE

​

Whether I’m releasing the thoracic spine to ease neck strain, rebalancing the pelvis, improving shoulder mechanics, or helping the body move without overcompensation, the intention is always simple:
precision over force, quality over quantity, understanding over guesswork.
The result is care that’s effective, long-lasting, and deeply personalized to you.
