➔ WHAT IS

ATHLETIC THERAPY?

Certified Athletic therapists are specialized healthcare professionals that practice using a Sport Model of Care that focuses on the prevention, assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal (muscle, bones, and joints) injuries and conditions.

Although we are best known for our quick thinking on-field emergency car of professional and elite athletes, we don’t just treat sport injuries, we treat a wide range of patients, from kids with concussions to seniors recovering from hip replacement surgery, using various manual therapies, modalities, exercise prescription and even bracing and taping. It’s that same mix of on-site care and active rehabilitation skills that makes Athletic Therapists so effective in treating the injuries of all Canadians, whether on the field or in the clinic.

As an Athletic Therapist I have spent the last 3 years working with Field Hockey Canada, where I have the opportunity to work with olympic athletes and assist them in their rehabilitation and performance journeys. I have attended a Pan Am Cup, multiple international tours (South Africa, France, England, USA etc) as well as attended the Birmingham Commonwealth Games in 2022 as their Team Therapist. 

Although I have spent a lot of my time with high performance athletes I have worked with a diverse range of patients from weekend warriors with sprained ankles to those who want to go back to moving through daily activities with ease after a car accident.
