Holistic Multidisciplinary Team
Our professional team consists of three experienced Physiotherapists, a Kinesiologist and a Pedorthist (orthotic specialist). It is our philosophy to provide expert, friendly, and patient centered care to all of our clients. We will work with you in a holistic way to help you achieve your goals. We use only the most effective techniques and exercises to get you back to health. In this process we will be very much “hands on” in our treatments and guidance, and you may learn a thing or two about your own body. All three physiotherapists at our clinic are certified to perform trigger point dry needling (IMS).
We are passionate about helping people with whatever obstacles are in their way. We are able to do this through careful listening, evaluation, and treatment.
We enjoy working with a variety of people of all ages and all abilities. We treat accomplished athletes, weekend warriors, dog walkers, mothers, grandfathers and kids to name a few.
Excellent physiotherapy takes time. We spend the time so that you will see and feel excellent results.

The love and interest in assessing movement began with a love for ballet. Noelle danced throughout her childhood including a couple years at the National Ballet School in Toronto. When considering University, she still needed to have dance in her life, so she went to the University of Waterloo and studied in the Applied Health Sciences faculty which also had a dance department.
After graduating from the University with an honours degree, it was my older sister, a chiropractor, who introduced her to the field of pedorthics. She found the study of human movement and foot biomechanics fascinating. After completing several exams and 3000 clinical hours, she became a fully certified Pedorthist.
From working for companies such as Paris Orthotics and Ossur (formerly Generation II) for several years, she decided to open her own practices and now works in three locations, South Surrey, Ladner and Sechelt.
She enjoys assessing all individuals from recreational runners to young athletes, dancers and everyone in between.
Noelle is a Canadian Certified Pedorthist in good standing with the Pedorthic Association of Canada and the College of Pedorthics.
NOELLE DOES NOT HAVE ONLINE BOOKING and she books her own clients. Please CONTACT Noelle at (604) 319-2885.
