Josh grew up in Abbotsford with a love of activity, the outdoors, and anything that could be made competitive. Despite gaining some knowledge and wisdom with age, a little childlike enthusiasm can be seen in Josh when engaging in sport. Josh graduated with a Kinesiology degree from the University of the Fraser Valley, and completed his Master of Science in Physical Therapy in 2019 at Queen’s University. Since moving back to BC, he has been working at an interdisciplinary WSBC post-concussion program for injured workers. He has experience working with concussion, headache management, musculoskeletal injury, neck pain, sleep hygiene, and vestibular disorders. To facilitate this work, Josh has pursued further education pertaining to concussion, chronic pain, vestibular rehabilitation, and active rehabilitation. He has also completed courses in trigger point dry needling. Josh is an advocate for active rehabilitation, and is motivated to empower individuals to take control of their recovery from injury with the proper education and guidance. Outside the clinic, Josh can be found on the diamond, field, court, trail, or couch, spending time with his family. It is part of Josh’s enduring goal to cultivate a love of movement in his family and friends.
