Ms. Denise Vandermeulen PT, FCAMPT

Details

I am a Physiotherapist with a love of science and movement and a desire to help people move their best.  I have years of experience in outpatient physiotherapy settings in orthopaedics, sport and manual therapy and increasingly with those who have experienced concussion and vestibular conditions. My clients and excellent colleagues have inspired me to pursue advanced knowledge to help those experiencing the effects of these conditions. I am a lifelong learner and strive to provide the best care possible to the people I work with. I aim to listen to each person’s story, collaborate with them on individualized treatment plans and provide hope for their journey and recovery.

I hold an Advanced Diploma in Manual and Manipulative Physiotherapy, a Certificate in Sport Physiotherapy and am a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manual and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapists (FCAMPT).  I have studied acupuncture through Acupuncture Canada and am Certified in GunnIMS dry needling.  In addition to introductory and advanced courses in vestibular rehabilitation and courses in neurological rehabilitation and concussion management, I attended the Competency-based Course in Vestibular Rehabilitation through Duke University and the APTA in Emory, GA in 2022, earning a Certificate in Vestibular Rehabilitation. I am passionate about educating my clients and others about vestibular disorders so they can better understand what they are experiencing and guiding them on their unique journey to better balance.

I love to be active outside and enjoy spending time with family and friends, cheering on my two children in their pursuits, cross country skiing when I can, and competing in the sport of triathlon. I am also a triathlon coach in training, an interest that supports my desire to help others enjoy movement and live healthy, active lives.

I look forward to meeting you!
