Meet the Village Wellness Clinic Team
Dr. Christine Wozniak, Chiropractor
Every day, I get to help people express their true health, naturally. I’m here for them to uncover what’s really going on in their body and come up with a solution to move forward.
Dr. Dilani Weerasekera
Each person’s body is unique, so treatments should be tailored to fit the needs, goals, and pace of every patient. I’m enthusiastic about helping patients reach their health potential
Dr. Camille Nghiem-Phu, Naturopath
I love the challenge of looking for the root cause of a patient’s health concern or chronic illness. It’s an investigation-sifting through a lot of history so we aren’t just treating the symptoms.

Ada Lu, Registered Massage Therapist
To prepare for her massage career, Ada graduated from Pharma-Medical Science College of Canada in January 2021. Since then, she has been studying acupuncture and tuina massage. Ada is pleased to offer every client professional care in a beautiful, relaxing environment.
Offering an Array of Methods
Ada believes that the combination of Gua sha, hot stone and soft tissue release, through massage therapy, are integral aspects for maintaining optimal health and balance to the body and mind. She adapts every massage therapy treatment to each individual, helping create this balance for her clients.
Ada’s focus is on Attachment Release, Trigger Point Therapy, and Deep Tissue Release, utilizing her elbows and knuckles when needed. While working with deep tissue, Ada slowly applies pressure, minimizing discomfort and allowing the body to relax completely. Treatments range from specific work on chronic areas and injuries, to full body muscle, tension, and stress reduction.

Zori Galstanian, Osteopathic Manual Practitioner
Since my early childhood, I was attracted to the medical field. It was therefore normal for me to move towards medical school after completing high school. But very soon, I realized that the allopathic medicine didn’t interest me. So I tried to find a different specialty, which could suggest an original therapy.
And I discovered Osteopathy: to me it was obvious, because first of all, it is a holistic medicine, which allows us to have a complete vision of the patient and his troubles, and so to better understand him and to be in a total empathy.
Then, it is a manual medicine, non-invasive, respectful of the human body, allowing me to practice daily the art of touch. It is an extraordinary power for a practitioner to treat a patient with his hands. I see Osteopathy as an art, a philosophy, a passion, but in no case as a simple job.

After a 6-year full time study at the Ecole Supérieure d’Ost éopathie (Paris, France), I obtained my diploma (Ostéopathe Français, DO) in 2007.
Since the beginning of my studies, I have worked with musicians, singers and dancers during festivals and concerts and that is why I choose to complete a research study on Osteopathy and musicians.
Practice
I worked from 2008 to 2015 in my private clinic (Paris area), where I had the opportunity to treat more than 2000 patients, from newborns to seniors, also pregnant women, sportsmen, disabled persons… with various diseases.
I use a wide variety of techniques (cranial, visceral, structural, myofascial, soft tissue approaches), which are always adapted to each patient and never traumatic.
Over 10 years of clinical practice allowed me to refine my palpation and to find and treat quickly the primary cause of the disease. This holistic vision of the human body which characterizes Osteopathy led me work collaboratively with many other practitioners. Furthermore, I try every year to receive new extensive trainings (in nutrition, birth and newborns, emergencies, optometry, fascia, sports injuries, pregnancy,…)
I also had the great opportunity to participate in the creation of the association “Les ostéos du Coeur” for Paris area and to be one of the managers since 2013. This association regroups voluntary Osteopaths, who provide free osteopathic sessions for low income population.
