About
Kathy has been a Physiotherapist for over 30 years and has spent the last 20 years here in Ottawa. She is a member in good standing with the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario. Her area of clinical expertise covers virtually all orthopedic conditions (musculoskeletal), chronic and acute injuries and sport related injuries. In her practice, she frequently provides pre- and post-operative rehabilitation for total hip replacements, total knee replacements and other surgical procedures. She follows the most up-to-date, evidence-based rehabilitation protocols to improve treatment outcomes.
Kathy regularly educates patients on their condition, so that they understand why it happened, how to treat it and she provides clear instructions on how to avoid a recurrence in the future. She uses effective manual therapy techniques and precise exercise prescription to achieve measurable results from clinic appointments. The result is a steady path to improved function.
Over the years she has taken many continuing education courses including McKenzie Mechanical Diagnosis and Treatment Parts A and B, Acupuncture and Dry Needling, Mulligan Concepts, Cervical Dysfunctions, Orthopedic Manipulative Therapy, Mobilization of the Nervous System, Diagnosis and Treatment of Movement System Impairment (Shirley A. Sahrmann), Prevention of Running Injuries and IASTM (Graston) techniques.
Kathy is a firm believer in life-long learning, strives for superior patient outcomes and understands the value of a multidisciplinary approach. She is fluent in both English and Persian (Farsi).
