Biography
Collin has a bachelor's degree in kinesiology from Concordia University with a specialization in clinical exercise physiology, and a master's degree in physiotherapy from McGill University. He is a licensed member of l'Ordre professionnel de la physiothérapie du Québec (OPPQ) and the Canadian Physiotherapy Association (CPA).
Collin discovered his passion for physiotherapy after successfully rehabilitating a basketball-related knee injury and has since been passionate about delivering the same life-changing results to all his patients.
Thanks to his strong background in clinical exercise prescription, Collin emphasizes a hands-on, functional, patient-first approach that empowers patients to be involved in their own treatment. He has experience working in hospital settings, neurological rehabilitation, nursing homes, strength & conditioning gyms, and lived in Waswanipi (a Cree Nation village in Northern Quebec) for 2 months delivering physiotherapy care. He provides optimal and inclusive healthcare to a diverse range of patients, including athletes, older adults, post-operative individuals, those dealing with chronic pain, and everyone in between.
Collin has completed continuing education courses in manual therapy, including Mulligan techniques for the treatment of neck & upper extremity conditions and he has passed the level 1 Manual Therapy exam. He has also completed Jeremy Lewis’ theory & practice course for the shoulder and has completed McKenzie method courses for the assessment and treatment of the lower back, upper back, and neck.
Collin’s hobbies include sports and outdoor activities such as hiking, weight training, soccer, basketball, and running. He also enjoys reading, playing board games, and works part-time at a nonprofit organization for adults with intellectual disabilities.
