Since graduating and becoming a Registered Physical Therapist I have attained six additional certifications to improve my patient care: University of Alberta Medical Acupuncture (MAP). This treatment will have many benefits including decreasing stress, anxiety, pain and inflammation as well as promoting healing, improving sleep, balancing hormones and increasing energy levels.

Education is a vital component to this assessment and you will learn a lot about your body and your specific issues. Most importantly you will learn that you do not have to live with pelvic floor dysfunction and urinary incontinence and that treatment is effective and empowering.
