"I started sessions with Eric after playing for almost one year with several minor injuries. When I started seeing him, I was always in pain and tentative to work out for fear of aggravating my injuries. Eric was patient with me and gradually rebuilt my strength and confidence. I went from lifting no weight to squatting over 100 lbs with him in a couple of months. He effectively scaled back my sessions when I had setbacks or concerns and knew when to push me. His workouts were varied, sport-specific, and undoubtedly improved my abilities on the field. I highly recommend training with Eric if you’re injured, feeling stuck, want feedback on form, or want to elevate your athletic abilities."

A wild weekend for field and sideline coverage.

and I both spent a lot of time at the C4P tournament, saw and provided care to a lot of injuries and experienced the incredibly welcoming Ultimate Frisbee community in the maritimes.

stood guard this afternoon to see our Football team take yet another win to continue their streak defeating the CPA Cheetahs 36-2 and plan to take the championship next weekend.

Though field coverage is tiring and time consuming, it is always rewarding. There aren't many better feelings for us than when someone tells us they wouldn't have been able to play a sport they love without our help.

That's what we're here for. Safe and effective return to play.

It's International Athletic Therapy & Training day!

I embarked on this journey after deciding on it at age 14. I originally wanted to do AT to work on the sidelines in the professional hockey setting. Soon after starting CrossFit training and entering into the Strength & Conditioning world I saw how beautifully Athletic Therapy could fit into the CrossFit and S&C world.

I haven't looked back and am so thankful for the community-based work environments at and

There is tons of room for growth of AT in Nova Scotia and I'm here to keep growing it and helping our communities by fostering safe, active, and fun lifestyles.

We are all athletes of life.

There is a common misconception that athletic therapists only treat pro athletes. In reality, CAT(C) athletic therapists, such as myself, treat a wide range of patients
suffering from musculoskeletal injuries.

Our goal is to help clients return to their usual activities, whether that means playing competitive sports or walking to the mailbox and back, to performing well at your job without fear of injury.

If you're in pain or injured, I would love to help you in your recovery. You can contact me at or by calling or emailing 902-446-4303 to set up an appointment.
