Justin grew up in the Tri-cities of British Columbia and enjoyed an upbringing that revolved around community and sport. He realized from a young age he wanted to turn the things he loves most into a career and that is exactly what he set out to do. He went on to study Kinesiology – Exercise Science at the University of the Fraser Valley and from there travelled to Australia to complete a Master’s in Physiotherapy at the University of Queensland. Before returning home, he stayed and worked across Australia and continued his education from experts in the field. Justin believes in long-term athlete development, and health promotion and that exercise is medicine. Providing education to the public, reducing the risk of injury and bridging the gap between acute injury management and Return to Sport is what he does best. He says “The recipe for success in rehabilitation is a strong therapist-patient relationship that thrives on communication + education, managing pain and most importantly providing individualized exercise prescription through a comprehensive assessment”. Justin enjoys working with people from all walks of life who are motivated to reach their goals. Particularly his heart lies with soccer and he still identifies with the sport. In his free time, he likes to get outdoors with friends to hike and play tennis and pickleball to keep fit and keep life interesting. So if you are an overhead athlete (swimmer, Olympic weightlifter, volleyball player, baseball player etc) or in a running and kicking sport come to see him to understand how you can perform at your best and reduce your risk of the most common injuries in your sport.
