Currently on Maternity Leave until 2027
Julia holds a Bachelor of Health and Physical Education (Physical Literacy) from Mount Royal University and a Master of Science in Physical Therapy from the University of Alberta.
Julia takes a client-centred, trauma-informed approach to treatment, combining individualized exercise prescription, manual therapy, dry needling, education, and evidence-informed techniques to support each client in reaching their goals.
Julia has experience working with clients across the lifespan, with a special interest in paediatric physiotherapy and infant development. She enjoys supporting infants, children, and their families with a variety of concerns, including torticollis, plagiocephaly, positioning, motor milestones, and infant feeding support and related challenges, such as infant suck mechanics. She is particularly interested in the unique role physiotherapy can play in supporting infants with these challenges. Since welcoming her first child, Julia has especially enjoyed combining her personal and professional interests in helping infants and families thrive.
In addition to her paediatric practice, Julia has worked with athletes, older adults, individuals with neurological conditions, and clients recovering from sports and other orthopaedic injuries, post-operative rehabilitation, complex polytrauma, and chronic pain. She values treating each client as an individual and creating personalized treatment plans that support meaningful goals.
Outside of the clinic, Julia keeps very busy with her husband, son, and golden retriever. She enjoys gardening, baking, and staying active.
