I entrusted in François all the high performance athletes with whom I have worked since 2013. Many had persistent physical constraints, even insoluble despite other therapeutic approaches. François’s treatments restored their state of health and balance, giving them not only the opportunity to consolidate their level of acrobatic performance, but above all to improve it.
François is an attentive, thorough and efficient therapist.
Osteopaths you will certainly find, but like him, never.

On my first appointment with François, I knew right away that I had finally found someone to help me keep my body at its peak.
As a professional circus artist, my job relies on my body since it is my working tool. Since the beginning of my career, I have seen countless physiotherapists, doctors, chiropractors, massage therapists and other osteopaths without ever being able to fully heal from my injuries. I have trusted François since 2014.
If you are looking for an honest person who is passionate about his work with great skills, look no further!

In 2003, osteopathy entered my life as well as François, to my great happiness. François is a generous, empathetic, rigorous and very attentive therapist. He always takes into consideration the personal and professional situation of his patients and considers biomechanics, the mind and nutrition as an interrelated whole.
He knows how to work effectively in an emergency situation, but is especially interested in injury prevention and overall health. He knows how to relieve and eliminate pain while targeting extremely relevant exercises to allow us better self-healing on a daily basis.
Although his fields of expertise in the body and its functioning are vast, he remains open to collaborations between professionals and never hesitates to direct us towards the intervention best suited to our needs.
As a professional dancer, his sensitive and careful approach helps me refine my physical training and allows me greater autonomy in my injury management.

Following a bad fall from the circus wire, I continued to perform my circus practice despite an injured hip and shoulder. But five years later, the pain forced me to stop work and take care of my injuries. I turned to François Thibault, who has a lot of experience with injuries of performing artists.
He has this ability to find the source of the problem, which is rarely located where I feel the pain. François manages to involve me in the healing process and the treatments have considerably improved my health.
Today, I have less and less pain in everyday life and I continue to treatments from time to time to calmly move towards a full resumption of my circus activities.
Thank you very much François!

The first words that come to mind when I think of François are: "Extremely competent and efficient! ».
He was recommended to me more than a year ago for a back and hip problem. I have a physical job that is very difficult without full mobility.
I consider myself fortunate to have found an osteopath who is so skilled and takes the time to listen to his patients. François' knowledge of the human body in movement is at the cutting edge of his discipline. His treatments reflect his abilities and his passion for his field of expertise. His curiosity to find the source of pain makes him an outstanding practitioner.
He is simply a first-rate professional.

Francois has been absolutely essential to my training times in Montreal these past few years. As a professional circus artist, it is invaluable to have had such an insightful and effective osteopath. I couldn’t be more grateful for his help keeping my shoulders (and so much more) healthy and pain-free.
