About Life Therapies | Ottawa
Founded in 2000 by Elliot Vlad, D.O.M.P, BA (Kin), CK, RMT, and former world athlete in gymnastics, Life Therapies is a multidisciplinary healthcare clinic in Ottawa, Canada. After a near fatal car accident left him paralyzed while training in Ireland, he was told by numerous doctors he would never compete again and was facing the rest of his life in a wheelchair. Overcoming immense emotional and physical obstacles, spending years in physical therapy teaching himself to walk again, Elliot knew that he wanted to dedicate his life to helping others relieve pain in their lives.
Building an incredibly strong and talented team of therapists, Life Therapies now specializes in osteopathy, physiotherapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, acupressure and breath therapy, holistic nutrition, and pain management. In addition, we are happy to bring you nutritional counseling and meal planning services, as well as courses developed specifically for professionals and those designed to help you learn about living a healthier life. We provide intuitive therapeutic approaches to treating pain, increasing physical performance, and dealing with stress. Our methods strike the perfect balance between traditional health sciences and the growing demand for alternative holistic health care.
