Throughout 26 years of a rewarding physiotherapy career, I have had the opportunity to work with so many clients who helped teach me about an array of injuries, illnesses, disabilities and rehabilitation methods. I look forward to continuing that in the final decades of my career however with a tweak to the delivery method. I am now focusing on coaching and leaning in to my first loves of injury prevention and health promotion. There are so many ways to set and achieve goals whether using group programs, social media, emerging artificial intelligence and good ol' intrinsic motivation. As social creatures however, some of us find it helpful to have that one-one-one check-in while working towards a goal. That is what I am here for.

​

I started with a degree in Kinesiology then went on to Physiotherapy and have been a lifelong athlete. I tell you that only to say that I have loved training, strength training and running in varying capacities for a long time. I have loved coming back from various injuries less but have always found that we are often capable of more than we believe particularly when we are in the thick of an injury or stressful life event. I believe so much about assessment, goal setting and training relies on communication and helping clients find ways to work toward their goals while managing their barriers; knowing when to push harder and when to back off.​

How I Do Things...​

​

​All training programs are initiated with a thorough physiotherapy assessment. Included in that assessment, will be discussion around your goals and expectations. By the end of that assessment, both you and I should have a good idea if we are a good fit and we will be able to start building an appropriate training plan.

I truly believe that most people will see significant improvements with consistent strengthening / training based on an individualized program. If further hands-on treatment is felt to be beneficial (including manual therapy, acupuncture), I will still offer that to coaching clients.
