John Balogh, RMT

John felt as though he was still missing something from his knowledge base and what he could offer the people he was working with, so he decided to attend Sutherland-Chan School of Massage Therapy to become a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT). John graduated from Sutherland-Chan in August 2019 and
Registered with the College of Massage Therapy of Ontario (CMTAO) to become a RMT in January 2020. During this time he also became registered with the College of Kinesiologist of Ontario (CKO) to become a Registered Kinesiologist (R.Kin).

Martyn was born and raised in a seaside town in the UK, and moved to Canada in 2001.

Martyn first became interested in alternatives to traditional pain remedies in 2002, and used what he was learning to help friends and family; until others started to hear about it and it grew.

As a lifelong student, he has learned a wide range of alternate healing modalities including many traditional Chinese medicine methods, until he felt the strong pull of the ancient Egyptian Reflexology and made it his specialty.

Some of the key benefits of reflexology are:

Kelly Hogan, OMP
Osteopathic Manual Practitioner,
I am very excited to provide osteopathic manual therapy in Dundalk. I recently moved to a farm in West Grey and I love country life! I bring with me 18 years experience working in diverse medical settings including primary care nursing, patient assistance programs, medical education and pharmaceutical sales. When osteopathy personally provided me with relief of acute back pain and chronic knee pain, I knew that I wanted to join this profession and share the benefits with others.
With a Master in Practice in Osteopathic Manipulative Sciences (M.OMSc) from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy, I have come to learn that a drug free osteopathic manual treatment provides a safe therapy that is effective in preventative healthcare, acute issues or chronic conditions.
I am a very curious person and a lifelong learner. When I treat you, I become a detective searching for the root cause of your symptoms, making the connection between your symptoms and what I discover on your assessment.
Patient care is my calling and I am extremely passionate about the benefits of osteopathy as a non invasive, drug free therapy that is complementary to the care provided by your Medical Doctor or Nurse Practitioner. As a certified member of the Ontario Osteopathic Association, my treatments are recognized by the insurance industry.
I look forward to working together with you on your path to health and wellness.
