**Olivia Whelan-Henderson** **Registered Physiotherapist, Ridgeline Physio She/Her** Hi Fernie! I'm thrilled to be part of the team at Ridgeline Physio. Originally from New Zealand, I completed my Physiotherapy studies at the University of Otago in 2021. After graduating, I have spent time in New Zealand working in a musculoskeletal private practice, treating a wide range of patients, and developing a strong foundation in evidence-based care. I enjoy working with a wide range of orthopedic conditions and have a particular interest in lower limb injuries and return-to-sport programs. My approach is hands-on, patient-centred, and focused on helping people understand their bodies so they can take an active role in their recovery. Alongside physiotherapy work, I'm also part of the Ski Patrol team at Fernie Alpine Resort. Outside of work, you'll usually find me exploring the mountains - skiing, mountain biking and trail running.
- Initial assessment for new injuries and returning patients.
- Follow-up treatment planning over the next weeks.
- Movement rehabilitation for pain and functional recovery.
- Exercise prescription to rebuild strength and mobility.
