Most people I see are coming in because they’ve injured themselves. The first thing I want to do is control your pain. Now we have to figure out the ‘why’. It’s crucial to determine the cause of the injury so we can work together to fix things at the source.

Let’s take an ankle injury, for example. Someone comes in after being slide tackled in soccer leading to an ankle injury. That is vastly different than rolling an ankle when walking down the street. In the first scenario an outside force (player colliding with you) caused the injury. In the second scenario poor mechanics (how you are moving) and lack of tissue tolerance led to injury.

My treatment approach is therefore different for each scenario. That being said, in both cases, treatment results in exposing your body to demand (exercise) which restores normal function or helps to ‘unlearns’ maladaptive behaviours that led to injury or predispose you to future reinjury.

Conversely, I have (awesome, ahead of the curve) people see me for proactive care. Sport preparation (soccer season, Hyrox, marathons, volleyball) upcoming life stages (pregnancy, menopause, critical years etc.) or general proactive support. With these individuals we team up to determine their goals and curate care accordingly.

My care includes:

• Soft tissue therapy

• Mobilizations

• Adjustments

• Active care *let’s be real this is a non-negotiable

• Modalities: Graston, cupping, dry needling, BFRT, sport taping, TENs
