Sarah is looking forward to taking further courses in Craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation and others. She has a special interest in helping people heal from many different injuries and longterm compensation patterns.
Sarah enjoys working in this field as she finds it fascinating how physios
can help people regain function and meet their goals. As a former athlete
who has competed at the World Games and several World Championships
for team Canada in the sport of Kayak Polo, she has been all too familiar
with injuries and receiving physiotherapy herself. She's also had plenty of personal experience with knee injuries and ACL reconstructions,
Outside of the physio world Sarah enjoys spending time outside hiking, skiing, walking her dogs, and travelling.
