Ila believes that pain and injury can disrupt all aspects of life; therefore the primary goal of treatment is to return the patient to their activities as quickly and effectively as possible. Her primary focus is providing quality hands-on manual therapy in conjunction with an individualized exercise program and functional movement to help her clients return to the life they want to lead. At the end of the day, exercise is medicine.

Ila commits herself to continuous education to enhance her knowledge and professional skills. Ila is certified to perform dry needling and acupuncture treatment through the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada.
