Aaron is a Registered Physiotherapist who received his Master’s Degree in Physiotherapy at the University of Ottawa after completing his Bachelor’s Degree in Physical Health and Education at Laurentian University in Sudbury. Aaron’s background in both human movement and personal training allowed him to pursue a student trainer role with the Sudbury Wolves of the Ontario Hockey League during his time at Laurentian University. As part of this experience, Aaron assisted with the implementation of strength and conditioning routines, and performed fitness testing for elite level athletes. Being with the team every day allowed Aaron to treat, manage and prevent various injuries, as well as prepare the players for game time. As a Physiotherapist, Aaron uses a combination of patient education, manual therapy and exercise prescription as the foundations to his evidence-based practice. Although hockey & golf are some of Aaron’s strong interests, he is very passionate about the career he has chosen and as a result, takes pride in helping athletes of all sports, levels and ages. Aaron has continued his education by taking post-graduate courses including: Functional Dry Needling, Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA), Titleist Performance Institute Certification (TPI Medical Level 1 & 2) , New Trends in the Prevention of Running Injuries and Personal Trainer Certification with the Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology (CSEP). Aaron is a bilingual therapist who is happy to provide services in both English and French.
The initial assessment and treatment with a Senior Physiotherapist is the beginning of the search for what has gone wrong with your body's mechanics. We start with a thorough history of your injury or condition, and then take you through a series of tests that allow us to narrow down the cause of your problem. We discuss our findings with you, and propose a treatment plan. We can't tell you how long it will take for you to be completely painfree, but we can tell you that you should feel a significant difference by the time we have seen you 4 or 5 times.
