Founded in 2014 by Brek Harris, Keystone Health emerged from a profound understanding of the healthcare landscape, honed through years of experience working in clinics. By identifying significant service gaps in the healthcare field, Brek was driven to establish a practice that addresses these needs with a more holistic approach.
At Keystone Health, our mission is to treat the problem, not just the symptoms. We believe that self-care is an integral part of healthcare. Our unique approach empowers and educates clients, ensuring they are informed and active participants in their wellness journey. By focusing on the root causes of health issues, rather than merely alleviating symptoms, we provide truly transformative care.
Our dedicated team works collaboratively to deliver exceptional service and support. Together, we strive to create an environment where clients feel understood and valued, reinforcing our commitment to holistic health and wellness.
Keystone Health serves as a vital link in optimizing your personal health constitution. We facilitate the development of a comprehensive treatment plan encompassing a diverse range of healthcare disciplines. Additionally, we provide a Community Support Network to effectively navigate the challenges posed by your personal and professional environments.
With over 20 years of experience in the health care field, Brek Harris has developed a respect for the body's ability to heal itself when it has the opportunity. Brek earned a Bachelor's in Physical and Health Education from the University of Toronto, a postgraduate from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy, and is proud to be a part of the U of T Student Mentor Program. Brek has held various board positions, including President of the Ontario Osteopathic Association.
We treat the problem... not just the symptoms
Results matter. By managing our total environment, we optimize the body’s natural mechanisms that protect us from what life throws at us. The Keystone Health goal is to create a healthy and mutually supportive environment that optimizes your physical and emotional state of being.
We do that by combining:
- Root cause therapies based on the fundamental principles of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics allows us to assess the cause of ailments, clinically customize treatments and apply them to your current condition. We treat the body as a whole, looking past isolated events or symptoms. Understanding and addressing how the body is functioning vs. strictly removing discomfort... leads to sustainable results.
- Personal ownership that encourages all of us to proactively manage our own health. Our future is in our own hands and we can help you take control by providing information and access to your local support community.
- Education that encourages patients and therapists to work as a team. Our objective is to optimize your health, not create treatment dependencies.
- Communications that encourages multi-discipline participation in the healing treatment plan. Egos are left at the door and treatment plans are designed to get results. If we can’t immediately play a part in that, we refer you to those that can.
Life Happens … a healthy framework equips us to face it on our terms.

Building blocks to health
It's all connected
We can positively influence all aspects of our lives by investing in our own health. Proper structure of the body helps optimize its functions, from circulatory, respiratory, neuromuscular, lymphatics, gastrointestinal, etc.
Feeling better with ourselves creates a healthier family, social and workplace environment. Nutrition, exercise and positive social interactions provides the structure within our life to allow us to function and adapt in an ever changing environment.
Putting the building blocks in place
Our bodies require a strong framework to keep us healthy… and when that framework weakens, our bodies can’t effectively fight on our behalf. Treatments and exercises can certainly help, but results can be fleeting if the underlying cause or daily habits are not addressed.
Keystone Health is focused on addressing the Building Blocks to Health by evaluating what your specific body requires, by making adjustments to strengthen and return it to optimal health and by providing access to services that help educate how to maintain this optimal state.
Keystone Health is a holistic healthcare provider that offers osteopathy and wellness services across Hamilton, Kitchener, Cambridge, Waterloo, Milton, and the surrounding areas.
