Brendon graduated from the University of Alberta with a Master of Science in Physical Therapy following a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the University of British Columbia. Brendon’s athletic endeavors began from a young age when he started cross country running and it was here that he first developed an interest in the biomechanics of the human body and sports. As an avid runner and rockclimber with a passion for ice hockey, brazilian jiu-jitsu and strength and conditioning. With an analytic mindset, Brendon uses an approach that breaks down the imbalances, movement patterns and opposing forces in the body to determine the root cause of dysfunction. Fighting through his own shoulder injury, Brendon learned that his best outcome resulted from taking charge of his own rehabilitation and becoming an active leader through all stages of his rehabilitation. It is important to take ownership of your injury and rehabilitation because only then do you dictate where and how the healing and recovery process happens. By being an active participant, you decide what you want to do, where you want to go and your therapist simply teaches you how. As such, Brendon hopes to equip his patients with the same mindset and approach, returning his patients to function through manual therapy, IMS, Graston (IASTW), acupuncture, movement and education through corrective and therapeutic exercise.
