Our role as physiotherapists is ultimately to work in collaboration with you (and other professionals) to restore your physical wellness. Injuries and pain can challenge our physical and emotional capacities. This is as true for a soccer player experiencing a knee injury, as for a parent who is dealing with chronic neck or back pain. Susan’s expertise has helped many, including Olympic and recreational athletes, musicians, parents and professionals restore their health.

Susan is a skilled clinician and educator. She instructs at the Advanced Coaching Diploma at the Canadian Sport Institute Calgary and at UBC Gunn Intramuscular Stimulation post graduate training. Susan was privileged to learn acupuncture from the gifted Dr Aung, which she integrates into her treatments. Susan is a “student of movement,” and shares her expertise as a Classical Pilates teacher, her participation in numerous activities and sports (Susan competed in the 1988 Nagano Winter Olympics in long track speed skating), and all that she has learned from coaches and students.

• Clinical Specialist in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy
