The role of a physiotherapist is to support people to restore movement and function when affected by injury or illness.  They are co-detectives with individuals to discover the sources of their limitations and find strategies to restore function. 

 

Here is a piece of my story.  Graduating from the University of Ottawa in 2009, I began my practice in northern Quebec working extensively with children with developmental delays.  In 2012, I had a significant foot injury which caused me to take a pause. Discovering the connection of body, mind and spirit, in our perception of pain, I recognized the need for a more holistic approach in my physio practice. I began my practice in pelvic health in 2016 working with individuals pre and postpartum. In 2019, I began working with refugees who had experienced trauma and pelvic pain as a result. 

​

During my time in private practice, I met several adults who struggled with bed wetting.  I also kept hearing many stories of parents’ frustration with helping their kids gain bladder and bowel control, which was a source of stress and disruption in their daily life.   Good bladder and bowel health are important for everyone’s quality of life and needs to be addressed early.

​

My story has led me to open my own practice, focusing on improving the lives of children aged 5 and up.  As one of deeply rooted faith, I am amazed at how the body is created to heal.  

​

Creating a safe space for people of all backgrounds, beliefs and values to find healing is of utmost importance to me.  Shiloh means resting place and it is in a state of rest that our bodies work best.  

 

When I am not working as a physio, you will often find me dog walking my fuzzy puppy out on the trails or busting out the moves on the dance floor at a local ceilidh or swing dance.
