B SC Physiotherapy Manual therapy (FCAMPT) , Acupuncture (CAFCI), Gunn IMS (CGIMS), Level 1 and 2 Bikefitting Jennifer graduated in 1991 and has over 30 years of experience I trained at the University of Toronto, graduating in 1991 with a Bachelor of Science degree in physiotherapy. Upon graduation, I spent three rewarding years in neurological rehabilitation at the G.F. Strong Centre, assisting clients with stroke and spinal cord impairments. I transferred my focus to orthopaedics in 1995 and spent the next three years in post graduate studies to become a certified manual and manipulative therapist. I worked in Delta for 15 years in the areas of orthopaedics and occupational rehabilitation. It was a wonderful opportunity to work with leaders in the manual therapy field. 15 years ago, I decided to work closer to home in Vancouver and specialize only in orthopaedics. It is hard to believe so many years have gone by working with Matt and the rest of the West Fourth team. I now feel a part of the community. It is exciting to work with the cycling, running and triathlon community and their clubs. This has dove tailed nicely into my bike fitting training and running assessments. My own fitness journey; including three Ironmans, has given me a real perspective on training and injuries. (It is true, you do not have to be uncomfortable on a bike!) It is a pleasure giving education sessions on injury prevention in these areas as well. I have begun to work with the osteoporotic population. It is exciting to bring Onero to my clients. Onero is an evidence-based, high-intensity resistance and impact exercise program designed to strengthen bones and muscles, particularly for individuals at risk of osteoporosis or with low bone mass. I feel lucky to work with such a diverse and interesting clientele. I enjoy helping each person feel better and get back to what moves them.
