Hello! I’m Eliza. I’m a registered physiotherapist with a special interest in women’s health and pelvic health physiotherapy. My foray into Pelvic health physiotherapy began not as a therapist but as a patient. My firsthand experience of the benefits of Pelvic health physiotherapy and the positive influence it had on my quality of life motivated me to pursue further training in Pelvic health physiotherapy. I graduated with a Masters in Physiotherapy degree in 2009 and started practicing in Canada in 2011 with a diverse orthopaedic caseload. Since 2015, I gradually transitioned to Pelvic health physiotherapy, focusing on treating women. I have completed numerous courses over the past decade (see below). I have experience working with women of all ages, assisting them to overcome sexual health-related challenges, prepare for childbirth, return to exercise and activity after pregnancy and to age gracefully from peri to post menopause. I strongly believe that optimal health is a combination of a healthy body, and a resilient spirit and mind. I use a whole person treatment approach that involves sensitive communication, education, manual therapy and individualized exercise prescription. When I’m not practicing, I like traveling with my partner to off the beaten path destinations. I also enjoy all things artsy and craftsy.
