About Us

Meet Justin

I graduated from Western University with a Master in Physiotherapy. A serious interest in rehabilitation sciences first began for me when as a teenager, I witnessed my grandfather recuperate from a slip and fall injury. He went from wheelchair bound to regaining his walking independence while at a neurological physiotherapy centre. I have also suffered numerous sport-related physical setbacks, including a severe low back injury during weightlifting that led me towards my own physiotherapy-led recovery.

Combining experience, knowledge and compassion, I can help guide you through your personal physical rehab and wellness goals. I approach musculoskeletal and neurological conditions uniquely — applying fundamental and advanced techniques of physiotherapy while prioritizing functional mobility and strength at the forefront of the rehabilitation process. I have a special interest in spinal, shoulder and postural related injuries.

I enjoy staying active through weight training, snowboarding, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Having recently picked up tennis, you might find me at a local court working on improving my rally.
