Hi, I’m Cheri. I earned my degree in Physical Therapy from the University of British Columbia in 1990 and am registered with the College of Physical Therapists of British Columbia. I also hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Cell Biology (1986) from UBC, as well as a Bachelor of Education degree (2009) from Simon Fraser University. Through the course of my 30+ year career, I’ve had the honour of assisting thousands of clients, in both Canada and the United States. I’ve worked in a variety of care settings, including private practice, sports medicine clinics, hospital care, home care, as well as pediatric early intervention clinics, and schools. I am experienced in all physical, orthopedic and neurological aspects of health, development, disease and function. I thoroughly enjoy meeting and connecting with clients at all stages of life. My passion is to positively influence the overall health and wellness of each client. I offer hands-on, individualized, manual therapy, including deep soft tissue body work and joint mobilizations. I incorporate strength, flexibility, yoga, Pilates, balance and coordination training into my uninterrupted, private therapy sessions. I also visit and treat clients in the pool, private homes and in the community, so if you prefer a different venue, let me know. I thrive on employing my skills to address the unique challenges and requirements presented by each client. My focus is to find and address the root cause of each particular issue, in order to most effectively develop a client-centered plan. If your body isn’t moving optimally, I want to meet you! In my time away from the office, I can be found enjoying our local paradise. I love hiking, biking, skiing and spending time in and on the lakes with my family. I’m proud to call the Vernon area home.
