As long as Dapne can remember, she has always been fascinated by the human body’s mechanics. Growing up, she was not just intrigued by science but also deeply moved by the possibility of alleviating pain and helping people feel their best. This curiosity laid the foundation for her future journey as a physiotherapist. Dapne’s experience spans over 15 enriching years, in which she has sharpened her understanding of the human body and nurtured her empathetic approach to patient care. Her commitment to helping a person feel whole or overcome a health challenge is stronger than ever. Driven by the need to always give the best to her patients, she pursued an Masters of Science in Human Kinetics specializing in Biomechanics at the University of Ottawa. She has also done studies in Global Postural Re-education, Neuro-musculoskeletal Manual Therapy, Myofascial Induction, and Functional Dry Needling, among others. Dapne looks forward to getting you back to being you!
