Hello! My name is Melissa, I am a registered physiotherapist with over 15 years of experience. I enjoy getting to know my patients, understanding what’s important to them, and helping them reach their rehab goals. I use a combination of manual therapy, modalities and education to give patients a well-rounded physiotherapy experience. My ultimate goal is to empower you with the knowledge and skills to better manage your condition. Think of me as a guide in your rehab journey!
Education:
I received my Honours Bachelor of Science in Human Biology from the University of Toronto in 2003, and my Master of Science in Physiotherapy, McMaster University in 2007. After completing extensive courses and mentorship I received my Advanced Diploma in Manual and Manipulative Therapy through the Canadian Physiotherapy Association in 2016 and became a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy (CAMPT). I am
trained in acupuncture and dry needling, I’m a certified Nordic Pole Walking Instructor through Nordixx Pole Walking Canada.
Outside of work, I enjoy playing the piano, baking (I recently mastered Sicilian cannoli!), working with my personal trainer, and spending time with my husband and three kids.
I look forward to working with you!
