MScPT
Hi! I’m Emily and am a Physiotherapist Intern at Northgate Pivotal. I was born and raised in Edmonton, then moved to Calgary to complete my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with Honours First Class at the University of Calgary. I was brought back home to pursue my Master’s of Science in Physical Therapy at the University of Alberta. Through my academic journey, my passion for health and healing through movement grew. I have also received treatment from physiotherapists who greatly improved my quality of life, further inspiring my passion. Naturally, that evolved into my own passion for the physiotherapy profession.
I enjoy working with a wide range of patients and getting people back to all different ways of moving. Whether that is walking your dog, going to the gym or getting back on the court, I believe in working collaboratively to help you feel strong and capable in your body and in your different environments. Working with patients in pain has given me a deep appreciation for my own health. I am thankful for each day that I have the privilege to be pain free and want to help you enjoy the same privilege!
I’ve met many friends along the way so if I’m not at work, you’ll find me with my friends! I played competitive volleyball growing up and still play in recreational leagues. I love warm weather and everything that comes with it; water sports, floating down the Bow river and soaking up the sunshine. I also love finding new restaurants, so feel free to share your favorites with me!
