Jonah is another Banff local on our Altitude team. Rebecca met Jonah when he was 14 years old while recovering from surgery in the Banff Hospital. Jonah initially decided to pursue a career in Kinesiology and Exercise Physiology. This led him to attend UBCs Okanagan campus while playing varsity rugby. After his bachelor’s degree, while working as a kinesiologist and strength coach, his frustration with being unable to answer client questions about their aches and pains drove him to complete a Masters Degree in physiotherapy at the University of Sydney. Upon graduation, Jonah moved to New Zealand where he worked in private practice with an emphasis on acute knee injures, non-surgical management of low back pain, post surgical peripheral limb rehabilitation, chronic pain conditions, and sports specific conditions. Jonah loves working with clients from all walks of life and hearing their stories. Jonah takes an active and specific approach to treatments when it comes to exercise selection and working around injury. Jonah will never tell you to stop moving, but find ways to keep you doing what you love in a safe and progressive manner. Jonah’s main goal is to lessen the confusion and stress that comes with injuries while simplifying and streamlining the process. Outside of work Jonah can be found skiing, surfing, mountain biking, running, or planning other ways to enjoy life outside. While consistently expanding his knowledge through continuing education, he believes the keys to successful treatment should be collaborative, individualized, and realistic. His background in the strength and conditioning world, combined with his physiotherapy knowledge, has given Jonah a step ahead in his ability to treat clients throughout the entire rehab spectrum from acute stages to high-level performance.
