3 Best Manual Osteopaths in Vancouver, BC

What I’ve learned about Hoba from when I first came to see him five months ago is not only that is he a kind, caring, generous human being, but a true deep healer. I am in my senior years, retired and on pension. I came to see Hoba because of a chronic condition I have after spinal cord surgery six years ago. Having spent a big portion of my savings Attending alternative treatment to deal with Post surgery Problems that Never were resolved and were only getting worse. I have seen such a dramatic change, both physically and emotionally since I began to see him. I easily now walk 4 to 6 miles a day on the seawall and climb up and down 70 stairs two at a time. I have no joint pain anywhere and I’m able to practice Nine zoom qigong classes a week With Lee Holden this summer. I can best describe my experience in a edited email I sent to HOBA: “Hoba because spoken words disappear into airy thinness, I write to say thank you, thank you! No words to express how grateful that you were able to see me (on such short notice) on Friday. The dramatic change from when I walked into your office on Friday and when I left was really profound. … Your treatment did a 360 turnaround for me. When I left, I felt deeply peaceful and very balanced. … What I’m so grateful for is when I come to you feeling physically ill, and in many ways discouraged because of not knowing what’s causing my discomfort, I always leave balanced, grounded, and feeling so much better. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you.

I stumbled upon hoba through my wife and it’s no exaggeration to say that I could barely walk because of multiple discs bulging in my lower back. Chiro and acupuncture did little to nothing. Hoba was very knowledgeable thorough and his approach was the only one that spared me potential surgery. After only a couple treatments he got me back on my feet. He was an absolute life saver. He is the only one that treats/maintains my back health now and I highly recommend him to anyone who’s looking or already tried other treatments without success.

More than a year ago, I had a serious accident and broke vertebrae, sternum, and ribs. I have been working with Hoba Chenari for over 8 months. First he freed up my diaphragm so I could take a deep breath. And then he worked at loosening the tight muscles protecting the broken bones. Soon I felt some relief and stopped taking pain killers. My posture has improved - I’ve gone from bent over, walking with a hiking pole to an upright, free striding person. I can walk 4 kilometers and am once again riding a bike in the streets of Vancouver. I am grateful to Hoba for his consistent, compassionate, and whole-body approach to treating my injury. I highly recommend Hoba Chenari and Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment to anyone who suffers from chronic pain or injury.
