A native to Calgary she grew up swimming competitively for a local club team and skiing and hiking in the Rockies on weekends. She continues to feel passionately about being active and being outside and can be found mountain biking, skiing or trail running in her spare time. She now enjoys exploring what the west coast has to offer with her husband Dustin and their two children. Lissa’s post graduate training includes manual therapy, functional dry needling (FDN/IMS), hip and knee osteoarthritis specialization, and running gait analysis. She has experience working with the Banff Sports Medicine orthopedic team assisting in post ACL reconstruction rehab as well as triaging complex shoulder injuries with a sports medicine team in Calgary.

A Running Gait Analysis is a one-on-one in person assessment that includes an in-depth assessment of running history, mechanics, mobility, strength, and footwear as well as a video analysis of the athlete’s running form on the treadmill. The therapist will analyze and discuss the footage with you, and, if required, will work with you in-session to initiate and suggest possible changes. Your physio may also incorporate strength and/or flexibility work to help you achieve the specific goals set in the appointment.
