Elizabeth Wray
Elizabeth is an Osteopathic Manual Practitioner and Registered Nurse with over a decade of clinical experience. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from McMaster University and spent the majority of her career in paediatrics, later gaining additional experience in oral surgery.
Driven by a desire to take a more holistic, hands-on approach to healthcare, Elizabeth pursued her studies at the Canadian College of Osteopathy, where she earned her Diploma in Osteopathic Manual Practice. Her training emphasized the body’s inherent ability to self-regulate and heal, and she uses a variety of osteopathic techniques – including cranial, visceral, and structural approaches – to help restore balance and function.
With a strong foundation in nursing, Elizabeth offers a thoughtful, patient-centred approach that blends clinical knowledge with osteopathic principles. She has a special interest in nervous system dysregulation, acute and chronic pain, and TMJ dysfunction.
Her goal is to identify and treat the root cause of discomfort or dysfunction while empowering patients with the education and tools they need to support their long-term health and well-being.
