About me
  • BSc(PT), MHSc, BSc(Nutrition)
  • Certified in Acupuncture, Acupuncture Foundation of Canada Institute
  • Orthopaedic Manual Therapy, Craniosacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, Ayurveda, Acupuncture
  • I have worked in private practice since 2003.  The focus of my practice is to view conditions from both a western way (e.g.. anatomy/systems, orthopaedic, and diagnostic tests) and eastern way (e.g. correcting imbalances to the body and mind and improving the natural intelligence of the body to heal itself through lifestyle modifications, prevention strategies, diet suggestions).  I enjoy working with patients of all ages.
  • I am a member of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association (CPA), the Physiotherapy Association of British Columbia (PABC), and the Orthopaedic Divison of PABC.
  • I am the 2003 recipient of the Amanda Reid and Rick Hansen Award as well as the Margaret Croucher Memorial Award.
