Diane is a physiotherapist who offers Orthopedic Physiotherapy, Clinical Pilates Physiotherapy, Pelvic Physiotherapy. She can incorporate IMS (dry needling), shockwave therapy and blood flow restriction into treatments when needed.
She holds a Bachelors of Kinesiology and Masters of Physical Therapy both from UBC. She is STOTT Pilates trained and has a special interest in treating athletes with hip and pelvic pain.
She believes that Physiotherapy should encompass both prehabilitation and rehabilitation to provide everyone the best opportunity to participate in their daily life as well as all of their active endeavors. The general population and athletes of all ages and abilities should be provided with the tools to keep them active and injury free. She combines Clinical Pilates, Orthopedic, Pelvic Floor and Neurological principles and treatment techniques in order to assist clients to get back to full activity participation following an injury and strives to empower clients with the tools to stop injuries from reoccurring.
Having had injuries herself, after a career as a varsity soccer player, she appreciates first-hand how physiotherapy can have a significant role in a client’s rehabilitation pathway. Going through fertility treatments, pregnancy and her own postpartum return to sport she understands how beneficial exercise/ activity guidance and treatment for all of the associated aches and pains is from someone you can trust in some of life’s most vulnerable and challenging times.
Out of the Clinic: A former varsity soccer player she continues to work with local soccer clubs and always keen to try a new sport. Diane has become an avid runner and is happiest exploring new trails both around the world and in her own backyard. Completing the 2018 Boston Marathon and placing 6th divisionally at the 2019 LA Marathon before moving into Trail Ultramarathons have been some of her running highlights.
