Details

Maisy has a Bachelor of Science degree majoring in Kinesiology from Simon Fraser University and a Master of Physiotherapy from the University of Sydney, Australia. She holds both Mulligan Concept certifications and is certified by the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada Institute and the K-Taping International Academy. She also attended Emory University, a leading research university in Atlanta, where she received training in Vestibular Rehabilitation.

Maisy obtained experience in the public sector at various hospitals in Sydney, Australia. Upon returning to Canada, she worked in private clinics treating orthopaedic and post-surgical orthopaedic injuries, and work and motor vehicle-related injuries. In the past few years, Maisy has taken a keen interest in vestibular dysfunctions in the adult and geriatric populations.

Her experience as a community kinesiologist, as a short-term disability case manager – and now as a Physiotherapist – have contributed to her strong belief in the active and multidisciplinary approach in patient care for successful goal-oriented outcomes. Maisy’s treatment approach involves a combination of education, manual therapy, tailored exercise prescription, and acupuncture / IMS.

Outside of work, Maisy enjoys spending time outdoors with her active family, trying out new recipes, and international travel.
