Whether it’s sport, work, or play - Lisa’s passion is to help you return to what brings you joy. Common areas Lisa treats: thoracic and lumbar spine, ribs, pelvis, hips, knees, feet, and shoulders. She is also a trained Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist and is happy to offer care to all genders (please see “Our Services” page for a complete list of conditions treated). Lisa’s treatment methodology considers the whole body using ConnectTherapy and the Thoracic Ring Approach. She will ask for a thorough injury history and assess how you move to find the root cause of your symptoms, then utilize a personalized combination of manual therapy, IMS, and specific exercise prescription, including Clinical Pilates, to ensure long term benefits of treatment. Lisa is also excited to offer running assessments for those who are looking for help with gait analysis, shoe recommendation, and injury prevention. Outside of the clinic, Lisa is an avid runner, skier, surfer, backcountry camper, and yogi. She loves the west coast and enjoys exploring BC’s beautiful outdoors. Lisa looks forward to meeting you and becoming a part of your healthcare team.
