With a background in Kinesiology from the UBC, Cheryl completed her Masters in Science of Physiotherapy at Queen’s University. Since graduation, she pursued further education to become certified in Acupuncture and is currently in the process of completing her Diploma of Advance Orthopaedic and Manipulative Physiotherapy Level 3.
Cheryl’s passion for physical activity and sport began at a young age as a competitive volleyball player, leading her to become interested in sport sciences and injury rehabilitation. However, it was a unique experience as a physiotherapy student at the Center of Rehabilitation of the Paralysed in Bangladesh where she fully realized the positive effect of injury rehabilitation on patient quality of life. In a country where limited access to physiotherapy, the lack of awareness and poor perceptions of disability led to many cases of injury to remain untreated, many preventable cases of chronic pain often result in life changing and lifelong disability. As such, Cheryl’s strongest motivation for continuing practice in physiotherapy is to empower patients from all walks of life to participate in their own rehabilitation journey through education about their own injury, manual therapy, acupuncture and therapeutic exercise, ultimately allowing them to return to leading life in ways that are most meaningful and functional to them. Her areas of interest are: Shoulder injuries Neck and lower back pain Volleyball and racquet sport players

I had been dealing with metatarsalgia (pain in the ball of my foot) for six months. At first, I assumed it was just a bone bruise that would heal on its own, but even after months of consistent stretching and rolling my foot, the pain didn’t go away. I was a bit skeptical going into my first treatment, thinking it would just be a basic assessment, followed by a general diagnosis of muscle imbalances and a few exercises. However, Cheryl completely changed my perspective. From the moment we began, her professionalism and extensive knowledge stood out. She took the time to thoroughly evaluate my condition, asking insightful questions and carefully assessing the affected area. What impressed me the most was her ability to pinpoint the exact root of the problem—tightness in the muscles between my second and third metatarsal joints, an area I didn’t even know could cause such pain. Cheryl explained everything in a clear and approachable way, making sure I understood the issue and how the treatment would address it. We proceeded with shockwave therapy, which was a game-changer. Cheryl’s expertise, combined with her genuine care and attention to detail, made the entire experience exceptional. She didn’t just treat the symptoms; she provided a tailored plan to address the underlying cause. I cannot recommend Cheryl enough. Her professionalism, deep knowledge, and compassionate approach set her apart. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows what they’re doing and genuinely cares about their patients, Cheryl is the one to see!
