Prior to this, Christopher earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Kinesiology from the University of the Fraser Valley. He has continued his post graduate education taking courses in manual therapy, IMS, concussion & vestibular rehab. Additionally, Christopher works in the hospital setting where he has gained valuable experience working with clients who need rehabilitation for balance, cardiovascular conditions, functional mobility/transfer training, and total joint replacements such as knee/hip/shoulder. Christopher has a passion for sports rehabilitation and continuing education opportunities in manual therapy and concussion management. His treatment approach includes an emphasis on evidence-based manual therapy techniques and client education, which he then combines with his extensive sports and active lifestyle background to allow for highly specific exercise prescription. He will take the time to find activities that you enjoy that are readily incorporated into your daily life to promote your recovery. Christopher’s philosophy he is excited to introduce to you is: “The body is designed for movement. To heal, we must move correctly and with purpose.” You can find Christopher hiking, snowboarding, and camping his way across the beautiful mountains and valleys that BC has to offer. He also loves to pursue his own passion for fitness with weightlifting, running, playing sports, and has recently taken up cycling and golf.
