**Educational Background**
Before becoming a physiotherapist, Anna first earned her Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology from Simon Fraser University. She worked as a kinesiologist in Vancouver, helping people with a wide array of injuries from acute post traumatic accidents to chronic effects from acquired brain injuries. This motivated her to pursue physiotherapy as a career. Anna then completed her Masters of Physical Therapy at the University of British Columbia. She has continued her education in the areas of acupuncture and dry needling, manual therapy, Mobilization with Movement, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization, CranioSacral therapy and fascial release.
**Philosophy**
Anna’s treatment philosophy combines hands-on manual therapy, acupuncture/dry needling , and individualized exercise programs. She seeks to address faulty biomechanics and movement patterns and to rebalance muscles and fascia to ease any joint discomfort, while decreasing the risk of re-injury.
**Areas of Practice**
Anna has experience treating skiing, climbing, dancing and many other sport and life-related injuries. Anna also works extensively with people in chronic pain, arthritic pain and post operative care.
**Personal History** Anna grew up in the mountains in various small towns in the interior of British Columbia and is excited to continue her career in the active communities of the North Shore. She is an avid skier, hiker and world traveller. She can often be found playing in the mountains when not at work.
