Moving to our Currie Barracks location starting Dec 1, 2025. Natasha is a big believer in the power of movement and loves to help people achieve their goals, no matter how big or small! Natasha grew up in Southern Alberta, completing her Bachelors of Science degree at the University of Lethbridge and her Masters of Physical Therapy degree from the University of Toronto. Natasha has experience working with a wide range of populations and injuries but she is especially passionate about treating female athletes and pre/postnatal clients. She has advanced pelvic floor training for both males and females (Levels 1-3 Pelvic Health Solutions) and is pursuing her Pre- & Postnatal Coaching certificate. Natasha is also certified for dry needling therapy in her treatments. During her post-secondary education, Natasha was a trainer for multiple varsity teams and has taken courses in sports taping, concussion and advanced first aid. She takes an evidence-based, and holistic approach in her practice, integrating a combination of exercise, education, and manual therapy. Natasha views herself as a rehab “coach” giving patients the individualized tools they need to recover and prevent reinjury, and is a strong believer in having clients actively participate in their own treatment. Growing up Natasha played multiple sports including soccer, volleyball, and basketball, but in the last few years she has branched out into dragon boat racing, bouldering, kickboxing, and yoga. When she isn’t trying out a new activity you have usually find Natasha hiking in the mountains with her dog (Rollo), in the gym, or planning her next adventure! As noted at the top, Natasha is spearheading the opening of our second clinic location opening in Currie Barracks Dec 1, 2025 and she will be working at that location full-time upon opening.
Our Run Assessment session is one of the cutting-edge sports science testing options exclusive to /Ascent, aimed to help runners establish their movement baselines and receive ongoing monitoring support. Utilizing Plantiga’s wearable insole sensors, this assessment provides a stride-by-stride biomechanical breakdown of your running performance, functional movement screening, and step-by-step insights of your movement asymmetries and lower limb loading. This initial 60-minute session will involve moderate intensity run testing to capture valuable insights into your run strategy, compensation strategies due to muscle weakness and/or fatigue, as well as your resiliency to running-related lower body injuries. Once completed you will be booked in for your follow up session and there will be a review of the report findings with the treatment and or training recommendations. If applicable, your report can also be forwarded to coaches and/or practitioners to be kept informed upon request.
