Athletic therapists adhere to the Sports Medicine Model of care. They treat a wide range of patients, from kids with concussions to seniors recovering from hip replacement surgery, using various manual therapies, modalities, exercise prescription, and even bracing and taping. The treatment varies but the objective doesn’t: an Athletic Therapist's goal is to help clients return to their usual activities, whether that means playing competitive sports or walking to the mailbox and back.

Certified Athletic Therapists are also known for their quick-thinking on-field emergency care of professional and elite athletes. The first to respond when someone gets hurt, they are experts at injury assessment and rehabilitation. It’s that same mix of on-site care and active rehabilitation skills that makes Athletic Therapists so effective in treating the musculoskeletal (muscles, bones, and joints) injuries of all Canadians, whether on the field or in the clinic.

I graduated from Sheridan College with a degree in Athletic Therapy and certified as an Athletic Therapist after graduating from St. Frances Xavier University with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and a Bachelor of Science, Human Nutrition.

While Athletic Therapy is my passion, I find that including nutrition in your recovery and performance will make your fitness goals more attainable. Part of my treatments can includes coaching on nutrition, fitness coaching, and health education programs for athletes, educators, coaches, and sports teams.

Athletic Therapy has given me the opportunity to be involved in high-level sporting environments including Jr. A Hockey teams, Brampton Excelsior’s Jr A Lacrosse, University of Guelph Varsity Rugby and Basketball teams, Canada Rugby Development program, National Toronto Rock Lacrosse team, as well as the Elliot Sports Medical Clinic.

Alongside my position at Victorious Therapy, I also work at Okanagan Hockey Academy here in Edmonton. I have found that working with both elite athletes and the general public has allowed me to develop skills with treatment programs to restore, maintain and improve physical functioning, alleviate pain, and prevent injuries.

Treatments techniques may include (but not limited to):

▪Manual Therapy and Active Rehabilitation

▪Soft Tissue Release

▪Cupping Therapy

▪Functional Movement Screen

▪Return to Play Concussion Protocols
