Realign & Detoxify Your Body
What Sets Us Apart
At Mind Body Movement, we combine osteopathy and yoga with helping your body to realign, detoxify, and release tension in the joints to allow for more fluid movement. The way we use these techniques and transition between them is unique and sets us apart from other practitioners.
About Me
Osteopath DO(MP) and Yoga Teacher E-RYT Nicole Hajdok-Penny have been practicing for over seven years.
After graduating with a bachelor’s degree from Wilfred Laurier University, Nicole also attended the London School of Osteopathy and the Ontario School of Osteopathy. Graduating in 2013, she opened a successful Osteopathic Clinic and Yoga studio in the Kitchener Waterloo area.
Nicole belongs to the National Manual Osteopathic Society (NMOS) and the Ontario Osteopathic and Alternative Medicine Association (OOAMA).
Nicole has expertise in a wide range of techniques: gentle hands-on work, Cranio-sacral therapy (Cranial Osteopathy), visceral manipulation, lymphatic, muscle work, and joint mobilizations. Her depth of skill in many Osteopathic techniques helps her resolve some of her patient’s most complex health conditions and adapt each treatment to the patient’s specific needs.
“Helping patients is like trying to figure a massive body puzzle that comes in as their symptom, but what I am looking for is the root cause of the dysfunction. Our body holds everything we have been through its trying to sift through all that information to find the source of it all.”
Whether you suffer from migraines, back pain, foot pain, digestive issues, neck pain, TMJ, muscle spasms, or just anything you can’t understand, I can help!
Nicole is passionate about Osteopathy and believes that learning is a lifelong journey. That is why she keeps adding to her toolbox to improve her skills in order to help as many patients as possible, which leads her to IMM techniques Advanced Integrated Myofascial Release & Muscle Energy Techniques.
She is also looking at attending Michigan State for another 4-year part-time program to get her full DO (Doctorate of Osteopathy).
On a more personal level, I have always been in sports and athletics all my life. Fitness and a healthy lifestyle are part of my daily life.
My two kids are very involved in competitive sports that keep me busy can’t imagine life any other way! Don’t ever put your health on the back burner. Your health should be a priority!
Hope to see you soon!
