Meet your Osteopath
Claire Fontaine

Claire describes osteopathy as the practice of listening with your hands. After fifteen years of clinical work, she still means it literally. The body holds its history in its structure — in the way the fascia has adapted, the way the viscera have shifted, the compensatory patterns that developed so gradually they no longer feel like compensation. Her job is to read that history and work with it.

She sees patients who have often exhausted other options — not because osteopathy is a last resort, but because it tends to be the last thing people try. She would prefer it to be among the first.

Claire works fluidly within the LYV team. Her assessment frequently surfaces findings that are relevant to the physiotherapy or chiropractic picture, and she communicates those findings directly.
