Welcome to Prairie Therapy. I am Christine Dixon, dually certified as an Osteopathic Manual Therapist and Certified Athletic Therapist in Calgary, Alberta. I believe in a holistic approach to wellness, combining the principles of osteopathy with personalized care to help you achieve optimal health. My goal is to get you back to doing what you love in as few visits as possible.
The Osteopathic Manual Therapist uses an array of manual approaches to reduce and resolve strains, stress and dysfunction in all areas of the body. The goal is to remove restrictions to vascular, neural and biomechanical mechanisms and ultimately support the natural healing mechanism by promoting auto regulation.
An Athletic Therapist assesses injuries and conditions, utilizes contemporary rehabilitative techniques, therapeutic modalities, soft tissue mobilization, physical reconditioning, and supportive strapping procedures to promote an environment conducive to optimal healing in preparing the individual for safe reintegration into an active lifestyle.
