Joanne graduated from the University of Sydney with a Masters in Physiotherapy, after having already acquired her Bachelor’s Degree in Human Kinetics with a major in Exercise Science at the University of British Columbia.
Joanne has had experience working with the University of Sydney Soccer Club and has more recently gained experience working with the New Westminster Hyacks Football team. She has also had the opportunity to provide her help and physiotherapy expertise at various charity golf tournaments. Joanne is planning on obtaining her Sports Physiotherapy Diploma and is excited for any forthcoming opportunities to work with even more sports teams.
Clinically, Joanne has gained interest in manual therapy, Selective Functional Movement Assessment, and acupuncture and is planning to advance her repertoire of skills in these areas in the near future.
Joanne’s athletic interests include basketball, volleyball, running, and kickboxing. Succumbing to the pressures from some of her fellow colleagues at Trailside, Joanne is hoping to get over her nerves and attempt mountain biking. In the meantime, she is currently training to complete her first triathlon in 2012.
