DARRYL GOMES
I was first introduced to osteopathy by several of my teachers while studying Athletic Therapy at Sheridan College. I was fascinated with the concept of using the hands, without the aid of therapeutic machines, to treat the various tissues within the body in order to promote health.
​
After graduating as a Certified Athletic Therapist in 2005, I worked at various clinics before enrolling at the Canadian College of Osteopathy in Toronto in 2012. Around the same time, I was working as the Assistant Athletic Therapist at Seneca College. During this time, I was able to help the varsity athletes get better by supplementing my treatments with osteopathic techniques. In the private sector treating the general public, I also noted that the general public also got better when they received some type of osteopathic techniques.
​
I graduated from the 5 year osteopathic program (in-class proficiency plus a thesis defense) and am actively treating individuals with the goal of getting them healthier.
​
I enjoys playing many types of sports, but I have a great love for hockey, darts, and especially golf. I hope one day to golf at the Masters (a guy can dream), but for now, I will settle for a round just about anywhere. I enjoy keeping things fun, but also recognize when to be sensitive and listen to a person's problems.
