Guelph osteopathy
Anna Peters
M.OMSc
Anna Peters comes to Osteopathy from a background in herbalism, and a deep love for the natural world. Anna (pronounced Ah-na) returned home to Ontario to attend the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy after 13 years on the coast and in the mountains of BC and California where she pursued work as a birth doula, studies in western and ayurvedic herbalism, organic farming, natural building, and permaculture design. Anna is a member of the Ontario Osteopathic Association (OOA) and Osteopathy Canada (OSTCAN).
Osteopathy aligns with Anna’s lifelong appreciation of holistic systems, as it is a practice rooted in the observation of natural systems, modern scientific knowledge, and the wisdom that a more functional system is a healthier, more resilient system.
Outside of the clinic, Anna enjoys gardening, cooking, creating art, and frolicking outdoors. She has a personal passion and professional commitment to supporting her patients’ optimal health and wellbeing.
