About

Danielle completed her Master of Physical Therapy degree from the University of British Columbia in 2011 and her Bachelor’s degree from Simon Fraser University in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry in 2009. She became interested in physiotherapy after going through the rehabilitation process herself for a number of sports related injuries. She has been living in Squamish since 2012 and enjoys outdoor activities such as skiing, mountain biking, mountaineering, climbing and kiteboarding.

She has a specific interest in hand and upper limb therapy and is a Certified Hand Therapist. She is proficient at making custom splints for a variety of hand, wrist and elbow injuries. She has also taken several courses in reformer Pilates and does 1:1 sessions to facilitate rehabilitation and prevention of injuries on the reformer.
