Seeing our clients on a regular basis throughout their individual journey allows us to form connections with them and their support team. Together we celebrate their successes and work together to find solutions to any setbacks Hi, I’m Laura! I’ve been a physiotherapist for 10 years, focusing mainly on neurological rehabilitation. I’m passionate about helping people regain their confidence and independence through functional rehabilitation. I earned my Undergraduate and Master’s degrees in Rehabilitation Science from Queen’s University and completed my Physiotherapy degree at the University of Toronto. I started my career at the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute, working primarily with Spinal Cord Injuries, Brain Injuries, and in Complex Continuing Care. I’ve taken post-graduate courses in the Bobath Concept, which have provided me with a solid theoretical framework and improved my skills to provide the best treatment for my patients. I’m also GLA:D certified, which enables me to prescribe exercise for people with hip and knee osteoarthritis. Additionally, I’ve worked in the Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Clinic at Toronto General Hospital, gaining experience with connective tissue disorders, hypermobility, and chronic pain. Currently, I work part-time at Concept, in a Geriatric Falls Program in Oakville, and have casual roles in home care and stroke rehabilitation. I love having various roles in my community, as it helps me become a more well-rounded therapist. Outside of work, I’m busy with my three young children and our 13-year-old dog, Willie. I enjoy cooking and crafting, often with my little helpers when they cooperate! Our physiotherapy assistants Under the direction and supervision of our PTs, the PTAs work as part of your team to maximise your recovery. PTAs can be involved in aspects of care such as exercises, gait training or practising tasks with you.
You will receive an initial assessment by one of our physiotherapists. They will ask about your health history and evaluate your physical condition. This includes an analysis of your posture, movement patterns, strength, range of motion, balance, sensation, and functional activities. The physiotherapist will examine any documents, images, and reports that you have provided. From this information and assessment, your physiotherapist will design an individualized treatment program specifically for you to help achieve your goals. The assessment typically takes over 1 hour and at the end your physiotherapist will provide you with a brief overview of findings and recommendations. Following the assessment, you will receive a summary report by email with a more detailed analysis and a recommended treatment plan. This is included in the assessment cost.
