Fantastic experience: Antoine is one of the best practitioners I have ever met. He is so gentle and amazing with babies and so educational and helpful with parents. He is the guy we go to if we ever need an osteopath! Thank you Antoine!!
Fantastic experience: Antoine is a miracle worker in my books. Over the past 7 years I've had multiple issues (shoulder, foot, hip, and traumatic injury) that I was thinking would become chronic that he has helped me to heal with his incredibly gentle but effective treatments. And usually in a relatively short amount of time too! Maybe 2 or 3 sessions over a month or two. (I appreciate that his treatment/business model does not involve getting me to come back for months or years.) Truly remarkable. He's amazing in matching his knowledge of the body with my description of my pain and/or experience, and then discerning what needs some attention, and exactly what kind of adjustment or release to apply. And he talks me through it all so that I understand what he's doing and why. My whole family (my husband, my adult daughters, my 92 year old father, and many of my friends) have also experienced his healing touch and compassionate care. We are all so thankful that he chose Calgary to practice his osteopathy, and continues to be available for us when we need him. I am so deeply grateful. I highly recommend Antoine to all of my friends, and if you're reading this, to you as well! If you're thinking about booking a first time appointment - don't hesitate! You will be grateful you did!
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Antoine highly enough. After a work-related injury that resulted in two spinal surgeries, I’ve spent years seeing different osteopaths and other healthcare practitioners trying to manage chronic pain. I know how difficult it can be to find someone who is both knowledgeable and genuinely invested in helping their patients. Antoine is exactly that. We were actually first referred to him by two completely different people. One, a close family friend and second Dr. Hartman, my lactation consultant at Westglen Medical Centre when our newborn was having feeding difficulties that were suspected to be related to a musculoskeletal issue. Watching Antoine work with our baby was amazing. He was incredibly gentle, calm, and patient, and after just a couple of treatments we noticed a huge improvement in our baby’s feeding. As exhausted new parents, that was such a relief. He has continued to treat her as she’s grown, and we’ve seen firsthand how wonderful he is with children. After seeing what he did for our little one, I booked an appointment for myself. Since starting treatment with Antoine, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my pain and mobility. He has an incredible understanding of how the body works, and every treatment is thoughtful and tailored to what’s actually going on rather than being a “one size fits all” approach. As any parent knows, life doesn’t always go according to plan. I’ve had to bring my baby, now 20 months old to a couple of my appointments, and instead of making me feel stressed or rushed, Antoine took it all in stride. He somehow managed to work around a clingy, squirmy toddler who absolutely refused to be put down! Even while treating me, he made her feel comfortable and included. She also still sees Antoine as a patient, and she absolutely adores him. She’s very clearly a member of Antoine’s fan club. Antoine is kind, compassionate, and takes the time to explain everything. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping people feel their best. He trained and practised as an osteopathic physician in France, and his depth of knowledge really shows. He also speaks French, English, and Spanish fluently which is a win if English is your second langue. My father who is originally from Spain sees Antoine and is actually able to understand what is happening in the session because Antoine takes the time to explain it in Spanish. I’ve been so impressed with the care I’ve received that now the vast majority of my immediate and extended family see him as well. He will always do his best to accommodate and prioritize infants if he is booked up and the situation is urgent for your baby, just email him and he will do his absolute best to help. Finding a practitioner you trust is priceless, and our family is incredibly grateful we found Antoine. If you’re considering osteopathic treatment, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is an expert in pediatric and children's osteopathy - I've taken all my kids to see him. He's gentle and great with babies. I appreciate that he doesn't rush the appointments. If baby is crying or fussing, he's patient and adjusts his approach until baby has settled again, which made the appointments low stress for me. He doesn't try to find problems just to get you in for more appointments. He gave an honest assessment our needs and had our best interest at heart when recommending a treatment plan.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is magic! I had been struggling with a tight lower back for probably over a year, trying the usual, chiropractic & active release massage with minimal and slow change only. At the start of the session Antoine asked what I wanted to be able to do after our 1 hour session and I said, "touch my toes without friction". 1 hour later... done. He mentioned that it would still take some time to fully correct but I was able to put off my follow up session for 3.5 months (while I played a short season of basketball) until I saw him again. I would say, upon returning, I was only experiencing 25% of the previous tightness. It's been a week since I had my follow-up session and I am down to 10% and feeling better every day! Antoine isn't addressing my symptoms, he is thoughtfully targeting my body's core ability to function in the way and at the level it should be functioning. He is great at communicating what is going on with my body throughout the session and you can tell he cares about his patients. I cannot recommend Antoine enough, stop waiting to heal and go see him!
Fantastic experience: Antoine is absolutely wonderful, I would highly recommend him. I was referred by the breastfeeding clinic for support as well as for my daughter’s torticollis. Antoine showed expertise in his field and is very knowledgeable in anatomy. Upon meeting him I felt at ease and comfortable with him working with my newborn. He showed care and passion for his work. After our session, I could see immediate difference in my daughter. She was visibly less tense, in turn I was less tense and we had immediate improvement in breastfeeding. Antoine only required one session to work his magic :)
Hi Vivian! Thank you very much! I am really privileged to be able to provide support and sometimes a good kick-start to my little patients! Have a wonderful continuation!
Fantastic experience: I’ve had an incredible experience with Antoine. After struggling with persistent pain, I was feeling hopeless, but his expertise and care completely turned things around. From the moment I walked into his office, I felt listened to and understood. He took the time to thoroughly assess my condition, explaining everything in a way that was clear and reassuring. The treatment was gentle yet remarkably effective. Antoine’s skillful hands, combined with his compassionate approach, made all the difference. I’m beyond grateful for his help and highly recommend him to anyone seeking relief from pain.
Fantastic experience: We were referred to Antoine by our LC. He really knows his anatomy when it comes to newborns. He explained the process in great detail and made it very easy for us to follow along. Highly recommended, we left with a much deeper understanding of our daughters growing process. He is very easy to get along with and made us feel comfortable immediately.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is definitely the most educated, knowledgeable and compassionate osteopath you'll ever meet. His level of knowledge is amazing, and he's always able to explain everything that's going on, and he explains everything while he's treating you. He performs miracles with all ages, babies to seniors.
Fantastic experience: We saw Antoine on the recommendation of our lactation consultant for latching issues, and we couldn’t be happier. He made us feel completely comfortable from the start and explained everything in such a clear, thoughtful way. What amazed us most was how quickly we saw results—after just one session, our baby was already latching so much better. Truly incredible work! Thank you Antoine ! The breastfeeding journey has been so so so difficult (I was ready to give up), this meant so much to us.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is a dedicated practitioner and was excellent with my baby! He talked through the treatment to ensure I understood what he was doing and provided good insight and information as he went along in his treatment. If your little one needs assistance I would highly recommend Antoine. He is excellent. Update: 3 years later I saw Antoine again for my 2nd child and he was fabulous. I would still highly recommend him!
Fantastic experience: He helped with tension and feeding issues for both my babies. Very knowledgeable and helpful!
Fantastic experience: As a long-term athlete, I had several ailments which I had seen physiotherapists and chiropractors for before. I decided to book an appointment with Dr Antoine after seeing how amazing he was with my son. Within the first session he had picked up a few things that no other Healthcare professional had before. I already feel significantly better than when I walked into his clinic. He definitely doesn’t try to upsell you and will allow you to heal at your own pace without trying to over book appointments.
Hello Anwar!
Thank you very much for this review, it is really appreciated, not only because I know that the approach used was adapted to your needs but also because my message is clear about frequencies of visits and I can't stress enough to repeat to patients that sometimes, it's not that I don't want to see them, it's just that they don't need to see me THAT often!
Have a lovely day, you and your family!
Antoine.
Fantastic experience: We were referred to Dr. Antoine by our lactation consultant when our 12-week-old son was dealing with severe colic and a very tense body. Dr. Antoine is a highly knowledgeable and compassionate practitioner who immediately made us feel at ease with his gentle approach and clear explanations. Incredibly, after just two visits, we noticed a huge difference—our baby was significantly more relaxed, cried far less, and began feeding and sleeping much better. It was such a relief to see him comfortable and content. We’re so thankful for Dr. Antoine’s expert care. His work made a real difference for our son, and we would absolutely recommend him to any parent in need of support for their baby.
Hi Vanessa!
Thank you very much for the attention, this is heartwarming and I am very happy that the care provided led to success so you can enjoy those precious moments with your little one! I wish you an excellent continuation!
Yours,
Antoine.
Fantastic experience: We were referred to Dr Antoine for a curved back and a stiff neck of our 5 week old baby. He was absolutely amazing with our boy. He had the magic touch in helping him calm down, ensured he was comfortable to continue by offering if he needed a feed (which he did) and did not rush us at all. Within the hour, our boy’s back was no longer curving, and he is already sleeping facing his non-favourite side. No hesitation AT ALL if anyone asked for a recommendation for an osteopath. Infact, we booked my husband to see him at his followup too! NOTE: follow the address on the email (Third floor room 312), not the one on google maps!
Hi Manar!
Your review is greatly appreciated and it was the utmost pleasure to host all of you that day! The way you described my work through your review is truly reflecting the consideration I allocate to my patients and I am happy you phrased it that way. This is much more eloquent than 2 words and I thank you again for this.
I wish you an excellent day, and I cannot wait to host your husband for his osteopathic assessment.
Yours on health,
Antoine.
Negative experience: Brutal service
Hey there, please reach out to us so we can sort things out, I am really curious about what went wrong, especially because I have never met/treated you as a patient.
Fantastic experience: We were referred to Antoine by our lactation consultant for our 3 week old with stiff neck on one side. We were nervous prior to the appointment. Antoine made us feel comfortable by explaining the reasons behind the issues and his treatment plan. A few days after the appointment, our baby started moving his neck in both directions and just like that the stiffness was no more. I highly recommend Antoine to all new parents.
Hi Paul, and thank you for your feedback! It is always appreciated and the amount of energy/time I am spending towards research and evidence based medicine solutions are sadly never compensated, but this type of review gives justice and this is invaluable. It feels good! Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Antoine was a wealth of knowledge and the way he approached my baby’s treatment was wonderful.
Hello Ocean! I am really thankful for your review, it's a late reply, but I am sure you understand how time can be tricky for us! I am flattered to have a review from you as well as I am honoured to consider you as a strong referral osteopathy wise.
Fantastic experience: Antoine was referred by my wife lactation consultant when our month old had severe left torticollis and our baby always tends to slant his head to the right. This cause stiffness to his neck and body which often made it uncomfortable to have full range of motion movement. My wife struggled breastfeeding due to tightness to his neck and jaw. We booked our appointment with Antoine and he was very knowledgeable with our baby situation. Due to severity of the torticollis we had many sessions with him to loosen the neck, back, arms and hip movement. He was great every single session and notice improvement each time we visited. Now, our baby boy can move freely without any limitation. My wife and I truly appreciate what he has done for our son. We highly recommend Antoine! He is great with babies.
Hi Kevin!
Thank you for your feedback, it means a lot to me!
I am glad your little one is way over the concerns we first had along with your medical team and the only thing you must do now is to enjoy! How hard is this?! A blink and your little one will ask you to attend his graduation. :)
Fantastic experience: Book the appointment! Antoine is wonderful to work with and incredibly knowledgeable. He worked with our 2.5 week old daughter and helped us understand what she needs to learn to improve breastfeeding versus cutting a tongue tie. It was so nice hearing about less invasive options. You won’t regret seeing Antoine!
Hi Rebecca, never too late to reply a review I guess, especially yours! Thank you so so much, not only it put a smile on my face but also may help other parents taking the right decision:
Full disclaimer, I never objected a medical decision and I am always working along the advice of the medical team that was in charge! The complementarity of care is always a winning team! Have a wonderful everything!
Fantastic experience: Antoine is a truly gifted therapist who has expanded my understanding of health care. My 6 week old was referred to Antoine for limited range of motion which inhibited successful nursing. Additionally she was developing mild plagiocephaly and I was hoping to avoid a trip to helmet land. Within the first few hours of her appointment she stopped crying in the car seat and fussed much less during witching hour. Within the next 24 hours she could turn to both sides and fully open her jaw and nurse which was not previously possible. Over the next week the cranial flat spot moved from one side to center and then completely resolved. Before and after photos show a dramatic improvement that I am confident did not spontaneously resolve. I am so grateful that the actual root cause was explained and addressed in such a short time and with zero tears during the session. If you are hesitant due to osteopathy’s poor reputation as a pseudoscience in North America, know that there is a small but robust body of evidence supporting its benefit in resolving infant asymmetry. I am truly thrilled with the results and feel privileged to have accessed his services at such a critical time in my daughter’s development. I highly recommend any tongue tie infant see Antoine as early as possible. I only wish we had four of him across the city. Vraiment. Il est incroyable.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is knowledgeable and professional, my whole family has seen him including my infant son who made great progress with his feeding thanks to Antoine. Antoine was a great help to me as well for a longstanding hip and back problem that I have struggled with for many years. I had received chiropractic and physio treatments in the past which had helped me improve but I had plateaued in my recovery and Antoine helped me reach another stage in my recovery. He helped me return to a healthier and more active lifestyle.
Fantastic experience: We were referred to Antoine by our lactation consultant when our 3-month-old son showed signs of mild torticollis and head flattening. He seemed to have a lot of stiffness in his neck and body, and often just seemed uncomfortable. Breastfeeding had been a struggle since birth, despite releasing a posterior tongue tie a few weeks after delivery. I was initially skeptical about osteopathy, but my husband and I were immediately impressed when Antoine noticed specific issues with our son that we knew to be true. Specifically, that our son favored one leg over the other and had a more extensive range of motion on one side of the body. We had noticed these quirks but dismissed them, as we assumed it was normal to have a side preference and some asymmetry. Antoine also identified that our son couldn't open his mouth widely. I had noticed this too, as it made breastfeeding very challenging. I had previously inquired about his restricted mouth opening with our family doctor and multiple lactation consultants, but no one could provide a satisfactory explanation or solution. Antoine was professional and thorough. He explained each assessment and released our son's tightness with gentle pressure and stretches. Our son even seemed to enjoy himself too! Antoine provided us with stretches to continue at home and educated us about infant growth. We continued these stretches and other stretches diligently. In the next visit three weeks later, Antoine said that there was no need for additional follow-up. By then our son's torticollis had almost entirely resolved and he no longer appeared to be restricted when opening his mouth. We appreciated Antoine’s honesty, and that he didn’t recommend additional unnecessary follow-up, as we were so happy with the results that we would have happily booked many more unnecessary visits. Our son appeared so much more mobile and free from the tightness that was holding him back. I know the home stretches were a major part of this, but I have no doubt that the release from Antoine significantly helped our son as well. If we have another child, we plan to return for a check-up in the first few months of life. We trust Antoine completely and recommend him to anyone seeking help beyond traditional medical approaches for their loved ones.
Fantastic experience: Antoine was very helpful working with my daughter (2 months) when we were having issues with her latch/breastfeeding and some minor torticollis. He explained everything as he went and made sure I was comfortable and understood what he was doing while working with her. I felt he was genuinely interested in improving my daughters health and clearly is passionate about what he does; which is everything you want in someone caring for the well-being of your little one.
Hi Jenessa! Thank you very much for your feedback. I wish you all the best for your little one and yourself, and once again, you are always welcome to reach out if you have any questions and/or concerns.
Fantastic experience: Antoine was so helpful for my 2 month old son and I. We were referred to a different osteopath by our lactation consultant, but a friend had recently seen Antoine and recommended we go see him instead. He was very knowledgeable and explained what he was doing and how it would benefit my son. My son had been struggling to breastfeed and is so much more effective now, which has in turn increased my milk supply. My son is also is able to turn his head fully in both directions, which he wasn’t able to do before seeing Antoine. We highly recommend him!
Thank you Carly! Another great summary of my commitment to help new parents in their journey! I am glad it helped you and Looking forward to meeting you again!
Fantastic experience: My newborn baby was suffering from reflux! I was so tired and excausted, because baby was constantly crying! Everyone was telling me to give her medicine but I was against it! My last hope was osteopath, but I wont lie, I was skeptical! BUT- Antoine did a miracle! After first visit my baby stopped arching her back, crying and she started to sleep! Thank you Antoine, you saved me!
Hello Madara! I am very happy that I provided what you were expecting and I am for sure dedicating my practice trying to enlighten, guide and help parents throughout this new journey! Enjoy your little one! Time flies fast!
Fantastic experience: Antoine is passionate about helping people! He is detail oriented and always explains what he is doing and why. It is refreshing to have an osteopath that has a goal of fixing the problem as opposed to having you coming back forever. I would definitely recommend Antoine. If you suffer from chronic pain do yourself a favour and go see Antoine!
Thank you very much for your feedback and helping others to find their way to me! It's always a pleasure to host you!
Fantastic experience: Antoine really helped our baby with Breastfeeding. I was referred to an osteopath by my lactation consultant and was very skeptical of how helpful it would be. Antoine was really gentle and patient with my 2 month baby and we saw results almost immediately. We are now effectively breastfeeding and its so exciting that this has helped so much with our lactation journey. It also helped our baby because he wouldn't turn his head to one side and now that isn't an issue at all. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for care for their baby. He was very knowledgeable and kind and I enjoyed that he explained everything he was doing so I could understand as well.
Hi Christina! It's great to cure skepticism by providing facts and proof of my work! I thank you for your kind review.
Fantastic experience: For years, I had terrible migraines, jaw problems, and muscle pains on the left side of my body. After seeing Antoine only a few times, I got better and my migraines diminished considerably. I like how Antoine explains the purpose and the reasons for each treatment. I will always continue to see Antoine for keeping me healthy and active . He is very knowledgeable and he is by far, the best osteopath that I have received treatments from. I truly trust him.!
Thank you very much Caroline! It's always a pleasure to have you in!
Fantastic experience: I have nothing but positive things to say about Antoine Michel at Ellipse Therapy. I first came to see Antoine afew years ago for a persistent lower back issue I had been suffering from for a year. It only took Antoine three visits to completely fix my issue, it was remarkable. Antoine's aim is to fix your issue within afew sessions then send you on your way. While you are on his table he explains exactaully what he is doing and why. I always leave the session feeling not only physically better but also better equipped to manage my issue. Thank you so much Antoine!! cheers,
Hi John! I thank you very much for your feedback:
"better equipped to manage my issue" It's exactly what my goal is, thank you for making it eloquent.
Fantastic experience: My baby was referred to Antoine by my lactation doctor to assess baby's muscles. I was having issues with breastfeeding and decided to make an appointment to see Antoine. Years ago, I had been to an osteopath for back pain and while I saw a little bit of improvement, I didn't go to enough appointments to have my issue resolved. I was initially a bit skeptical on what an osteopath could do for a tiny baby, but I decided to give it a try anyway. He is warm, professional and super knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything. He was gentle with my baby, did a very thorough assessment and only did very gentle release on muscles with baby's own body weight. My baby was previously chomping down and causing me pain when breastfeeding. Baby had tight jaw and neck muscles, which interfered with how wide he could open his jaw - that was one of the primary concerns I brought forward to Antoine. I was happy to hear my suspicions confirmed and that Antoine was able to correct it. Once Antoine released the tight jaw and neck muscles, breastfeeding improved significantly! I could see baby's jaw open much wider, and the motion of sucking and swallowing also look different/better than before. I felt a significant reduction in pain the first feeding session after the first appointment. Baby still has some learning to do, but he's continued to improve over time. Also, my baby was super relaxed and had many peaceful naps after the appointment, a very good sign. I've since brought my baby back to Antoine for a follow up, but because the issue is resolved and there's nothing left to work on at this time, there's no need for further follow ups. I appreciate Antoine's honesty about this since some practitioners would gladly string you along and ask you to keep coming back for appointments when there's no need! I would not hesitate to make an appointment with him again though if new issues come up, or if something regresses for some reason. I highly recommend Antoine's services, whether you're dealing with pain/muscle tightness or your child is. Definitely recommend breastfeeding parents have Antoine take a look at the baby if struggling with breastfeeding pain! Just a tip on the facility - Ellipse Therapy is in the same space as Spectrum Therapy. The parking lot doesn't seem to have any reserved spaces for Ellipse or Spectrum, so you should park in one of the few "general" parking spaces on the left when you enter the lot.
Good morning Karman,
I couldn't describe better what I am doing or at least what message I want to spread. Thank you for your kind words and it has been my pleasure to help your little one, yourself, for the present and for the future.
Fantastic experience: I suffered with chronic headaches for 3 decades. Received numerous different treatments, tests and medications from the medical profession. Nothing ever helped. A friend told me to try osteopathy. Thankfully I found Antoine. Antoine is not some 6 month osteopath wanna be. He is the real deal. He is passionate about helping people and it shows. Not only is Antoine helping tremendously with my headaches, he is giving me my life back. If you've ever suffered with chronic pain you'll understand what that means. Whatever your problem may be, I highly recommend you see Antoine. What have you got to lose. Perhaps you too will get your life back.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is a REAL osteopath, trained for many years in Europe which is highly medically regulated, unlike Canada where training is a joke. He explains everything he is doing and is a true professional. He’s very personable and helpful. He loves what he does! Also trained to work on little ones, which is how I met him. He helped me recently and I’m so grateful. Go see him :)
Fantastic experience: Antoine is simply amazing at what he does! He's incredibly professional, very knowledgable, and great at communicating and explaining the physical and manual therapies. Not only is he able to put a baby, toddler and preschooler at ease during treatments, he's succeeded in alleviating acid reflux and symptoms of recurring ear infections for our youngest, where other treatments have failed. Highly recommend, wish I could give more than 5 stars!
Fantastic experience: Antoine is great at explaining what he is doing and I see improvement after every treatment! Friendly, prompt and focused on improving the health of his patients.
Fantastic experience: The osteopathic treatment Antoine provides is exceptional. I decided to book an appointment with Ellipse Therapy after I had spent weeks of not getting the pain relief I had hoped to through physiotherapy. Antoine approached my therapy through a more holistic lens to help diagnose and heal the root causes of my pain. After just two appointments I was able to return to the activities I loved, free of pain. Antoine is professional, detail oriented, and passionate about helping improve his patients’ quality of life.
Fantastic experience: Antoine, a fellow Frenchman who is naturally gifted and talented. I really recommend him! Truly like his approach. He tends to explain everything and is very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. You can’t definitely go wrong. I feel so much better in only two sessions, and all the familly already pay him a visit. Merci beaucoup ;)
Fantastic experience: J’ai visité Antoine pour mon garçon ma fille et moi. En France nous avions l’habitude de consulter des ostheopathes, mais au Canada difficile à trouver ! Antoine est vraiment super, il nous a beaucoup aidé et à un super contact avec les enfants. Je le recommende a 100% !
Fantastic experience: Antoine is a truly gifted osteopath. He’s helped both myself and my new born after our caesarean birth. And was instrumental in helping my toddler’s constipation. I confidently recommend him to all my friends and am grateful to have him a part of our health care team.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is the most knowledgeable health professional that I have ever encountered - from a holistic perspective - which is what osteopathy is all about. My children (in their 20's) have also been treated by him. We jokingly refer to his treatments as "magic"! But there is no trickery - as he always explains the treatment in his best "Frenglish"! Over a few treatments with him (as he prides himself in that his practice is meant to treat people, not create repeat customers), he has explained to me that his training to become an Osteopath in France, takes much longer, and is much more rigorous, compared to the training required to become an Osteopath in North America - and he's explained this without even a hint of any stereotypical "French arrogance"! Bonne Journee!
Fantastic experience: As someone who has dealt with chronic pain and injuries, Antoine has been a true saving grace to my quality of life. Antoine has been treating me for a long time and when we first met I was pain free for the first time in nearly 10 years. When we first met I saw him regularly as I was a problematic case. Since then, I see Antoine very rarely for an occasional "tune up". The sessions are a delight and Antoine does an exceptional job in explaining every part of the treatment so I can understand what he is doing and how it affects my body. I highly recommend making sure you are free for an hour or two after the session for a restorative nap after the treatment. It truly does wonders to help the body heal!
Hi Andrea, I am happy that we have narrowed down what your body needed, and even happier that you feel our visits are just a tune up! Definitely the goal I am trying to reach with everyone.
Fantastic experience: Antoine Michel is amazing! He not only helped with our infant (tight neck muscles), but then myself as well (shoulder pain). Clearly explains what he is doing and educates you on your body! Highly recommend him to anyone who is looking!
Fantastic experience: Antoine treated our newborn for tightness on her right side which resulted in difficulty feeding. He was so gentle and talked us through the entire treatment. Afterwards, we saw huge improvements in latching and feeding. We only had two appointments and were impressed with how much of an effect it had. Antoine is great! Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Antoine MICHEL Osteopath D.O. (France) Hi, I just wanted to share my experience at Ellipse Therapy and with Antoine. I have to say that the setting of Ellipse Therapy is very beautiful, calm and spa-like. I've been a proponent of chiropractics for most of my life and I am fairly new to osteopathic treatments. The work that Antoine has done for me has been incredible, and somewhat shocking. Antoine goes above and beyond to explain his findings and the treatment he is providing. Treatment is unlike chiropractics and unlike physio. It's gentle and holistic. Antoine shows genuine interest and concern for his patients and his body of knowledge and experience is vast. I appreciate how he explains the treatments and lets you know how many sessions that he believes your treatment will take. In my case...just two. Thank you, Antoine. David
Fantastic experience: In the past 3 decades I've spent far too much time and money on physio and chiro. During the last 3 years, I've realized that osteopathy is greatly superior to the other therapies. I especially like how holistic it is, but most importantly, it is effective - it is actually HEALING. My neck and back have never been this good in my adult life and my functional fitness has never been better. Antoine is an intelligent and talented practitioner with an excellent bedside manner.
Hi Ron, and thank you very much for your feedback, it is really appreciated. the pursuit of excellence is what drives me.
Fantastic experience: Antoine was referred to me by a coworker and it was the best thing for my physical health that had happened to me in a very long while. I am a very complicated case of tensions over tensions in the meck and upper back area, and Antoine always finds a way to relieve the pain and release the tension. I recommend Antoine wholeheartedly!
Thank you very much for your review. Complicated cases spice things up sometimes and it keeps myself on my toes.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is an amazing manual Ostheopath with gentle methods and efficient results. He is really knowledgeable, I really appreciate the fact he is explaining to me what he will do, why and how! You will know each step of his treatment. I learned a lot. I am seeing him periodically as soon as I feel a pain in my body, all the time he found the reason and fixed it. I don’t need to see him weekly for months, in few sessions it is over. I highly recommend Antoine to anyone with chronic or acute pain!
Hi Emilie, thank you very much for your feedback, really appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Antoine if you are looking for an Osteopath. He has extensive training and experience, and is very passionate about solving issues for his clients. I had been suffering with sciatic nerve pain for years, and after just two sessions the pain subsided. He has greatly improved my quality of life!
Hi Chantal! Thank you very much. You did write a Key-word about my practice and Osteopathy, improving your quality is a big deal! This is what we're truly working for! Have a wonderful day.
Fantastic experience: Antoine is really knowledgeable and always seem to find the way to heal me while other professionals couldn't.
Good morning Ana, thank you very much for your feedback, sometimes a new pair of eyes is what is needed. I'm glad I fulfilled your needs.
Fantastic experience: Anton is knowledgeable and passionate about his field. He's always willing to explain the how and why of the treatment he provides. He listens to the updates and information about the progress or challenges between treatments, making it a truly collaborative process.
Hi Crystal, Thank you for your review, I am glad that my way of practicing matches your expectations, I value the time you take to come to see me, I am making sure that you will also feel that way throughout my practice.
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Antoine for a few years and I can't say enough good things about him. I stopped going to the chiropractor on a regular basis and have been very happy with Antoine's approach.
Hi Jamie. Thank you very much for your review! I am happy that the care I provide fills your expectations, I can definitely assure you that chiropractors and osteopath are working closely together and I can think about one or two that are excellent in my opinion, feel free to ask me and I can send you over some good contacts! Cheers!
Fantastic experience: After having my second child, I had difficulty walking and was in a lot of pain. I was referred to Antoine by a friend and in one treatment, I saw a huge improvement. In two treatments, I was back to myself. It was truly a miracle and I feel very grateful to Antoine for his help!
Hello Adrienne, I can remember that day exactly and can't thank you enough for the review, looking forward to assisting you again with future challenges you may encounter.
Fantastic experience: After many years of unsuccessful chiropractic, massage therapy and physiotherapy appointments, Antoine was able to resolve my chronic pain issue in a relatively short period of time. Antoine is very knowledgeable, caring, and a pleasure to work with. He takes the time to explain everything he does. Unlike other therapists I have seen he treats me only when necessary, and doesn't insist on ongoing appointments. He is my "go to" person for any issues that arise. I would highly recommend Antoine and would give him more than 5 stars if I could!
Hi Cheryl, thank you very much for your feedback. Once more, I truly believe that education and taking the time is highly beneficial for the patient. It has always been a pleasure to host you and your family.
Fantastic experience: My friend recommended Antoine to me for osteopathy & I have been very pleased. Antoine cares about the individual, listens to their concerns & takes his time address the issues. I recommend everyone to go to him, he is informative, caring & always pleasant to talk.
Hi S. Taking time with the patient is determinant to guarantee a deep understanding about what brought you to me. This is why I always take my time and make sure that all your questions have been answered precisely and completely, therefore, avoiding "lost in translation" scenarios.
Thank you very much S. about your review! It means a lot to me!
Fantastic experience: Exceptional patient care! This was my first experience with osteopathy and it was more than I expected. My infant son was referred to Antoine for assistance with breastfeeding as he was struggling due to tight neck and jaw muscles. Antoine was warm and welcoming and began the session with a brief overview of his background as well as the DO profession. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed as he assessed and adjusted my son, explaining in detailed what he was doing and why. During the whole process my son was so relaxed and never even made a peep during the first session. Since than Breastfeeding has improved and we are now moving in the right direction on our feeding journey. My son has never been so calm and relaxed in evenings as he has been after our appointments with Antoine I look forward to seeing him for myself and my daughter in the future. And I would highly recommend him to anyone considering seeing a DO
Hi Angela, thank you for the kind words, I am for sure trying to promote Osteopathy by bringing the highest standards to my practice. Thank you for your review, hoping this will help future parents in their decision making when it comes to find a specialized osteopath.
