Alexandra (Alex) de Vries's physiotherapy practice focuses on **vestibular** and **concussion** rehabilitation. She has nearly 29 years experience, and is one of the most highly trained vestibular physiotherapists in Winnipeg.
Alex graduated with a bachelor’s degree in physiotherapy from the Industrial University of Santander, Colombia, in 1996. She came to Winnipeg in 1998 and completed a Master of Science in Rehabilitation at the University of Manitoba in 2002.
**Alex's Approach**
“I believe there are important social and emotional matters associated with disability from an injury,” says Alex. “Understanding what is most important for a patient is the best way to help them.
“My role as a physiotherapist is to help people take their power back in their lives, by moving better and functioning better. It’s also important for me to advocate for patients – that means I make sure they get the support they need to reach their goals.”
**Advanced Training**
Alex de Vries has completed extensive post-graduate training. Most of this training has been in acupuncture and rehabilitation for vestibular, concussion, bone & joint, and respiratory conditions.
Here's just a sample of the post-graduate courses Alex has completed:
- Vestibular Rehabilitation: A Competency-Based Course (Emory Conference Center, Atlanta, Georgia, 2017)
- Vestibular Assessment & Management certification (The American Institute of Balance, Florida, May 3-9 2019, with recertification in 2025, 2023 and 2021)
- Concussion management workshop (Concussion Rehab Works, Level 1 2016, Calgary, Level 2, Vancouver 2018)
- Concussion: What about the Neck? (Carol Kennedy, PT, Toronto, 2018)
- Physical Literacy Enhanced Rehabilitation (Dr. Dean Kriellars, 2024)
- Acupuncture certification (Acupuncture Canada, 2008)
- Respiratory Educator certification (Canadian Network for Respiratory Care, 2015). This certification allows her to provide education and treatment for patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD).
In the 23 years Alex has been a physiotherapist in Canada, she has worked in a multitude of physiotherapy environments in both private clinics and public practice. As such, Alex is uniquely positioned to care for patients with complex medical conditions.
