Cheryl obtained her Bachelor of Science with an Honours Specialization in Kinesiology from the University of Western Ontario followed by a Masters of Science in Physiotherapy from the University of Alberta. Upon completion of her physiotherapy studies, Cheryl has taken numerous post-graduate courses in manual therapy, acupuncture and dry needling, and vestibular rehabilitation. In 2016, Cheryl became a Fellow with the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapists of Canada (FCAMPT) which involved completing extensive post-graduate education in hands-on manipulative therapy that has met international standards of care. 

Cheryl is committed to helping her clients improve their overall health and well-being. Her practice involves treating the body as a whole and she 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 education, manual therapy, exercise, and acupuncture/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 Masters in Physiotherapy. 

Cheryl aims to live a healthy active lifestyle and more passionately loves to get outdoors 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, young son, and dog.
