Hi, I’m Liam Hargis. I grew up in Sault Ste. Marie before moving to Ottawa, where I completed my Bachelor of Health Sciences with a concentration in Biomedical Science at Carleton University. I later graduated from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy’s four-year program with a Masters in Osteopathic Manual Sciences (M.OMSc).
Before becoming an osteopathic practitioner, I worked as a physician’s assistant and in IT healthcare support, experiences that gave me strong problem-solving skills and a deep appreciation for patient care.
Sports and the outdoors have also shaped who I am. I competed nationally in wrestling, played football for 14 years, trained in track and field, and spend much of my free time hiking, canoeing, and camping. These experiences give me unique insight into the physical demands of athletics and active living.
For me, osteopathy is about more than easing pain—it’s about working with the body’s natural ability to heal and adapt. My goal is to meet each patient where they are and help them feel their best, whether in sport, in nature, or in everyday life.

Taryn was born and raised in Ottawa and has lived an active lifestyle since childhood—riding horses at 3 and earning a junior black belt in karate by 12. After completing a BSc in Biopharmaceutical Science, she worked in a lab but quickly realized her passion was in hands-on healing.
Her own experience with injury and recovery led her to study osteopathy for 1.5 years and become a certified Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) practitioner. FST is a gentle, assisted stretching method that targets fascia to improve mobility, flexibility, and nervous system balance. Taryn combines this with a whole-body approach rooted in osteopathic principles.
When she’s not helping clients move and feel better, you’ll find her lifting weights, out with her dog Kiah, cuddling her cat Lyla, or at the barn feeding her soul.
