Mika Ojala
I graduated as an osteopath from the Metropolia University of Applied Sciences. I decided to become an osteopath through personal experience, when 15 years ago my muscle tension was relieved and my health improved significantly during treatments with my osteopath.
I also got help with harmful consequences of intense physical workouts. I decided to become an osteopath when I began to feel that osteopathy is a versatile treatment that could help holistically with a wide variety of symptoms.
I treat clients of all ages: from babies to elderly. Exercise and rehabilitation are also my areas of expertise because of my sports background. Promoting health for people of all ages and backgrounds is my passion, that’s why I am constantly developing my skills through further training.
