Biography
A graduate of the Collège d'Études Ostéopathiques de Montréal, Déreck practices with a comprehensive, rigorous, and sensitive approach. His expertise is rooted in a detailed understanding of body mechanics, neuromusculoskeletal functioning, and viscero-somatic interrelationships. He helps each individual better understand their functional imbalances and supports their journey toward lasting well-being.
Before beginning his osteopathic training, he took several courses in cognitive neuroscience at the Université de Montréal. This foundation enriched his understanding of the interactions between the nervous system, stress, and regulatory functions. He further developed these concepts through continuing education on the brain-gut-microbiota axis, which is now fully integrated into his clinical practice.
He welcomes a diverse clientele, ranging from adults to children, including transitional periods such as pregnancy, menopause, and post-traumatic recovery. Each session is tailored to the individual's specific needs, whether it's persistent pain, digestive issues, postural imbalances, or stress-related tension. The practice aims to support the body's regulation by taking into account its history, rhythms, and adaptive capacity.
