About me

My name is Devon Stedman and I am a graduate of the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy where I received my Masters in Osteopathic Manual Sciences (M.OMSc). I am also a member of the professional association Osteopathy Canada (OSTCAN).

I grew up in Ottawa, Ontario and was actively involved in playing high-level basketball throughout high school and university. From an early age, I gained an interest in athletics and the movement of the human body through the training and conditioning required for
competitive sport as well as the result of multiple injuries and lengthy rehabilitation periods over the years. At the height of my basketball career while at Dalhousie University, I sustained a devastating knee injury that put an end to my career and competitive sports.

After multiple surgeries and trying different modalities for healing my leg, I was frustrated by the lack of results I was experiencing. None of the modalities were providing meaningful results. After four years of rehabilitation, I turned to Osteopathy based on the recommendation of a friend. The impact that Osteopathic treatment had on me was life changing. I experienced an incredible recovery and in turn a strong desire to learn this healing art and help others. I chose to leave a career in Business and Accounting, and enrolled at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy in Hamilton. Upon completing the program, I moved to Vancouver to begin my professional practice.

In my practice, my goal is to find the root cause of whatever is standing in the way of your overall health. Through gentle, calming treatments I will work to restore the structural integrity of the body, improving motion and freeing the neurovascular structures that allow for the body to heal itself. My hope is to be able to help others on their journey back to a healthy, pain free life.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and working together!
