About Archie
Their own wordsAndrew is often described by his patients and colleagues as passionate, knowledgeable, and friendly. He is passionate about sport and fitness, with an expertise in track and field, and has a particular interest in orthopaedic and sports therapy, whether it be preventative, rehabilitative, or continuing care. He believes in the importance of a patient-therapist team approach to identify patient goals and barriers, ensuring the creation of effective physiotherapy programs tailored to each individual.
Andrew’s practice includes a combination of education, hands-on manual physical therapy techniques, and functional exercise. With his FCAMPT certification (Fellowship in the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy), Andrew brings advanced training and expertise in manual therapy and clinical reasoning to his treatments. He is dedicated to continuing education and advancing his skills, having completed courses in dry needling and neuro-proprioceptive taping, and earning his Diploma of Advanced Integrated Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy through the Orthopaedic Division of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association.
Andrew obtained his Master of Science degree in Physiotherapy from Dalhousie University. Some key achievements during his time at Dalhousie include being invited to practice at the Institute of Neurological Science in Scotland, serving as the student president, and graduating at the top of his class in integrative practice. Prior to this, he completed a Master of Science in Experimental Medicine and a Bachelor of Science in Physiology from McGill University.
While at McGill, Andrew competed as a varsity track and field athlete in long jump and sprints, achieving nationals twice and representing Nova Scotia at the 2009 Canada Games. Having overcome multiple injuries during this time with the help of his physiotherapy team, Andrew gained a valuable patient perspective that he now brings to his practice. He also has extensive experience treating athletes, including his time working with the Mount Saint Vincent University Men’s and Women’s Soccer Teams.
Today, Andrew no longer competes but continues to stay active. His hobbies include playing squash, tennis, and basketball, and he is always open to trying new activities. Recently, he has taken up long-distance running and golf. Andrew looks forward to working with you to achieve your goals!
