N Khattar
I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Jugurtha! He accommodated me for a last-minute appointment and showed genuine care for my needs. His professionalism and expertise made me feel confident in his advice. He also thoughtfully crafted … More a detailed letter to my other doctor, outlining my concerns. I truly appreciate his support and highly recommend him!★★★★★ -

I visited the clinic for recurring back pain, and after just one session, I felt a significant improvement. Jugurtha took the time to fully understand my needs and explained each step of the treatment clearly. His approach was both gentle … More and effective. I also appreciated the practical advice given to help prevent future issues. I highly recommend this clinic for their professionalism and attentive care!★★★★★ -

Jugurtha is incredible. Just incredible. I had so much pain in my shoulder from some tight muscles and doing the wrong move in the gym. He showed up same day on a Sunday, in my home, was polite, clean, gentle, and so experienced. Explaining … More the root of the problem, and what to do after the treatment, and it was the best combination of physio, massage and a dash of chiro. I feel 1000% better, and right away! I highly highly recommend and have suggested this to my family and friends.★★★★★ -

Jugurtha is one of the best healing practitioners I've ever worked with. Having never tried osteopathy before, I really did not know what to expect, however I had tried chiro, physio and even craniosacral therapy and was still not … More fully recovered from my injury. After 1 session with Jugurtha, I noticed improvement on my conditions EVERY SINGLE DAY. I was shocked and so relieved to finally be reducing the chronic pain I'd been living with for months.★★★★★
Jugurtha is very holistic in his approach, from my toes up to my neck, he made all the adjustments necessary to facilitate healing throughout my body. After the second session as well as following his advice on stretches, supplements and adjustments to my routines, I am almost completely rehabilitated. We are seeing how the next week goes and decide if I need to come back for 1 more session. With physio, I was told I would need 6-8 sessions to recover. The price is higher for osteo than physio but with results in half the time, you're saving money and time for yourself in the long run.
Honestly do not hesitate to book with Jugurtha, he is very kind and caring and enjoys connecting with his clients. He is just starting his business in Vancouver, but has so many years of experience from working in Montreal and France. I hope this review helps him get enough clients and referrals to stay here! -
M Peyri
I had been suffering from severe sciatica pain for weeks and was struggling to find relief. Dr. Jugurtha Boumali was a true lifesaver. His expertise and holistic approach made all the difference. After just 3 sessions, I don't have … More any more pain. He’s knowledgeable, compassionate, and takes the time to understand your body’s needs. If you're dealing with sciatica or any other pain, I can’t recommend him enough!★★★★★
Osteopathy: a profession that listens to the body
Osteopathy is a manual therapy based on manipulating the various structures of the human body. Its aim is to identify the causes of symptoms in order to bring the body back into harmony so that it can function better.
Through precise palpation, the osteopath locates mechanical blockages in the skeleton, skull and internal organs. The body is considered to be an indivisible whole. Muscular and digestive disorders can therefore have repercussions on the whole organism.
The osteopath’s aim is not to treat the symptoms, but to determine the causes of your pain. Osteopaths are interested in your body’s history and any previous trauma that may have gone unnoticed.
Osteopaths play a fundamental role in preventing the risk of sports injuries and functional emergencies (sprains, lower back pain, sciatica). However, their field of action also extends to ENT problems, digestive disorders and psychological problems (depression, sleep, stress, etc.).
