Acupuncture
Maybe you’ve heard of acupuncture and just haven’t ever known exactly how it works, or why. Or perhaps you’re an acupuncture veteran and already know that those tiny needles don’t actually hurt, aren’t scary, and that they can make you feel great. There’s nothing quite like a relaxing “acu-nap”. We are huge acupuncture fans and we know you will be too!
Acupuncture is a gentle, safe, and effective treatment for any number of conditions, and when done by qualified practitioners like ours, is 100% safe in pregnancy. Some of the conditions more commonly - and effectively - treated by acupuncture include carpal tunnel syndrome, sinus issues, morning sickness/nausea, heartburn, insomnia, back and neck pain, and more. We almost always use acupuncture to help our mamas with breech babies, and acupuncture is also at the core of our fertility treatments.
** NOTE: These treatments will be billed under Naturopathy benefits, unless you are seeing Dr. Erica Nikiforuk, who is a licensed Naturopath as well as Registered Licensed Acupuncturist.
Chiropractic - Prenatal and Postnatal
Prenatal and Postnatal Chiropractic at Oona is performed by Webster-trained chiropractors.
Our treatments are performed on a special table with a "breakaway" section that allows you to comfortably and safely lie on your belly during pregnancy.
Our focus is not not only helping you feel your best, but also making space for your baby so that they can settle into the perfect position for an easier birth.
Chiropractic - Paediatric
Chiropractic for kids is safe, gentle and effective and may be used for a variety of issues, including colic, feeding issues, gas, sleep issues and to monitor developmental milestones.
When booking, please make sure to book the appointment in your CHILD's name, not the parent's name.
Chiropractic (For Patients who are not prenatal/postpartum/pediatric)
These appointments are for patients who are not currently pregnant and have never given birth before. If you are currently pregnant, kindly choose a PRENATAL chiropractic visit. If you have ever given birth to a baby, kindly choose a POSTPARTUM chiropractic visit. If you are booking for your child, kindly choose a PEDIATRIC chiropractic visit.
Compression Socks & Stockings Fitting
Compression wear provides relief for swollen, achy ankles that also reduces your risk of varicose veins during pregnancy. Wearing the right graduated compression wear throughout pregnancy (even before you notice any swelling) can help maintain healthy blood circulation keeping you looking and feeling great!
Book a FREE compression stocking fitting and consultation with one of our Sigvaris Certified Fitters today!
It is recommended that your compression stocking fitting is done early in the day to get the best measurement (this is because our legs swell during the day, especially when you’re carrying around a bowling ball!)

If you are planning to order custom compression stockings, please have your prescription filled out ahead of time. For insurance purposes, if you would like more than one pair of stockings, make sure your prescription specifies the number of pairs that you are eligible for, to ensure that you receive full insurance coverage. For example, if you wish to get 3 pairs of stockings, make sure your prescription says 3 pairs, or else you will only be covered for a single pair.
C-Section Scar Treatment with Dolphin Neurostim
This treatment is for anyone who has had a cesarean section.
The Dolphin Neurostim treatment is a gentle and very effective treatment to help mobilize your scar, improve sensation around the scar and improve your core and pelvic floor function.
When your scar moves better, your whole body moves better, improving your overall well-being.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are designed to align the foot and ankle into the most anatomically efficient position. They look like insoles, but are biomechanical medical appliances that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalance. Orthotics reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment. They fit into your shoes as comfortably as an insole - and they have the advantage of having been made from precise imprints of your feet.
Lactation Consulting
Book your IN-OFFICE lactation consultant appointment here. Please visit www.oonacares.com for information on booking an at-home appointment with one of our Lactation Consultants.
Lactation consultants can assist with every aspect of breastfeeding. From helping establish a latch, to assessing for a tongue tie, to dealing with low milk supply, to pumping, and more. Appointments can be super helpful prenatally as well; think of it as a private breastfeeding class!
All our Lactation Consultants are IBCLCs (International Board Certified Lactation Consultants in good standing. Some insurance policies will cover our Lactation Services by IBCLCs, we recommend calling your insurance provider before booking to see if they cover Lactation Consultation Services.
Please also note: Tristan Kiraly and Beth McKenzie are Registered Nurses in addition to being IBCLCs. Some insurance companies may offer additional coverage for their services based on this designation. We highly recommend calling your insurance company before booking to ask if you have coverage for "Postpartum care by a registered Nurse." This can be for either the mother or the child and may require a physician referral or a note from the RN.

Naturopathic Medicine - IN PERSON Appointments
Our bodies are pretty amazing; we are designed to coordinate all sorts of things at once. We see, we walk, we eat, we digest, we get sick and then magically get better. All of that happens without us having to actually coordinate any of it! (Can we get an AMEN for not having to organize ONE. MORE. THING?!)
However, from time to time, we may notice that this balancing act is a bit out of whack. Maybe your skin isn’t as bright as it used to be. Maybe your digestion is sluggish, or maybe you just haven’t felt truly well in a while. Maybe you’ve been struggling to get pregnant, or you may be postpartum and just don’t feel like your old self. That’s where Naturopathy comes in.
Our Naturopathic Doctors will work with you to figure out what’s going on, from the inside out. By really getting to know you and what’s happening, they can help get to the bottom of things and help you feel your best. Naturopaths use things like diet and lifestyle, and sometimes things like acupuncture and supplements to help balance things out for you. Our Naturopaths are experts in fertility, perinatal, paediatric and whole-family care and have basically seen it all. Nothing is off the table for discussion. If you have a concern about yourself or your baby’s well-being, come on in so that one of our Naturopaths can help you feel your very best.

Osteopathy - Adult
Please note: Insurance coverage for Osteopathy varies wildly - kindly give us a call if you have any questions about whether your insurer will cover treatment with our Osteopaths. Coverage for osteopathy is more complicated than with our other services, and we are unable to offer direct billing for this treatment type.
Osteopathic treatments are available for adults. Osteopathic practitioners may use any or all of the following techniques during their appointments:
Craniosacral work, visceral/organ mobilization, soft-tissue work and functional movement.
If this is your first appointment with an Oona Osteopath (even if you've seen an Osteopath elsewhere before), please book an "Initial Appointment".
Please check that you have coverage from your insurance plan for this service if you plan on claiming your appointment.
Osteopathy - Paediatric

Physiotherapy - Orthopedic and Pelvic Health
At Oona, we are obsessed with making sure that your pregnancy goes as smoothly as possible, and that you not only recover but that you thrive postpartum. We do this by ensuring that your pelvic floor is strong and functioning properly, and by addressing all of your other aches and pains, from your aching back and hips (ever feel like you’re a rotisserie chicken at night?), to your neck and shoulder pain.
We offer a personalized approach for your unique situation. All of our treatments are one-on-one, and may include things like manual therapy, at-home exercises, acupuncture, soft tissue therapy, and more.
We know you want to feel your best; our physios will have you feeling great in no time.
Pessary Assessment/Fitting by Physiotherapist
Pelvic organ prolapse can cause symptoms of heaviness, incontinence, pain and bowel and bladder concerns. Pessaries are one way to help treat these symptoms in conjunction with pelvic floor physiotherapy.
Sometimes called the sports bra of the pelvis, a pessary is a small silicone device that can be inserted into the vagina and support the prolapsed organ.
Pessaries can be very effective in helping manage symptoms of prolapse, however waitlists to see a trained professional can be very long. At Oona we bridge this gap by offering this service to our York Region patients.
IMPORTANT: Anyone can come in for a physio appointment at Oona, however a pessary will not be fitted without a referral and prescription from your primary care provider.
Physiotherapy - Pediatric
Please note: If you are booking a pediatric physiotherapy appointment, please book it in YOUR CHILD'S name, NOT your name. If you already have an account with us and cannot figure out how to assign a login to your child, please go ahead and book it in your name but please call us at 416.960.5656 or email us at hello@oonacares.com to let us know that we need to change it into your child's name (and provide us with the name of your child at that point).
Pediatric physiotherapy can help these little ones by taking them through a course of treatment to help facilitate the movements required to achieve their growth milestones, and ensure strong long-term growth.
Other areas of expertise include torticollis, cerebral palsy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Prader-willi syndrome, traumatic brain injuries, and various orthopaedic conditions including idiopathic toe-walking, post-fracture, genu valgum and varum, and clubfoot.
Sleep Support Services
Healthy sleep is foundational to your child’s physical, mental, and emotional growth and development. And sleep is a family affair – we all need it.
Our sleep support services help you understand sleep from its core: how it morphs and changes throughout development, how to align your child’s biological and behavioural systems to lay strong sleep foundations, and how to establish tailored strategies to approach sleep struggles with gentle composure.
Sleep support services in children ages 0-5 years have been shown to promote physical and mental development, increase happiness and decrease irritability, and to strengthen the parent-child relationship
**All Sleep Consultations conducted virtually or over the phone.**
Ultrasound Therapy for Blocked Ducts
Ultrasound Therapy can be very useful for the treatment of a blocked milk duct. In addition, we usually also recommend a visit with one of our lactation consultants to help assess your baby's latch, if blocked ducts have been a recurrent issue.
Kindly plan to bring your little one to the appointment, as it's best to nurse your baby immediately after treatment if at all possible.
