Cheryl is committed to helping her clients improve their overall health and well-being. Her practice involves treating the body as a whole and believes that regardless of the client’s condition or issue, there is always some kind of movement for everyone. To achieve this, her approach involves a combination of manual therapy, education, exercise, acupuncture, and dry needling. Outside of direct client care, she is a mentor for physiotherapists pursuing further manual training through the Orthopaedic Division as well as a Clinical Supervisor for those undergoing their Master’s in Physiotherapy.

Cheryl aims to live a healthy active lifestyle and more passionately loves to get outdoors doing a variety of activities all year round such as trail running, mountain biking, camping, and cross country skiing. In addition, she enjoys spending time at family cottages, practicing yoga and meditation, reading, and exploring with her husband her and dog, Garnet.
