I'm a ‘Friendly Manitoban’ by nature and a Guelphite since 1997. I've come into my profession honestly having grown up with my father who worked hard in his private practice as an orthodontist and my mother who gave up a nursing career to raise me and my 3 siblings. You could describe me as a ‘nurturing perfectionist’ with those role models!
I decided to pursue a career in physiotherapy from a love of human anatomy and body mechanics as well as from personal experience as a competitive track runner. After graduating from Queen’s University my husband and I moved to Guelph. I worked at a private practice clinic in town and after 10 years and 3 maternity leaves producing 3 beautiful daughters, I decided to open my own clinic in 2007 and continue my professional journey as the owner of Speed River Physiotherapy.
I'm privileged to be a "health facilitator" for so many active adults in our community but this also means my ability to take on new patients is very limited. I enjoy meeting new faces and challenges and will continue to accept new patients if you have the patience to wait for me and are willing to be an active participant in your own pursuit of optimal health and wellbeing.

This assessment will combine Heather's skills as a Physiotherapist and Clinical Pilates Instructor to improve your performance in everyday life and/or recreational activities. We will take a detailed look at your posture, daily life movements, walking pattern (gait assessment), mobility, flexibility and strength, starting with your core foundation. From here we will come up with a treatment plan which may include a home program (written or online/video), private or group Clinial Pilates classes, or referral to community activities/classes with the guidance and support from a physiotherapist who knows your skills and needs.
This 50 minute class will support your rehabilitation in a fun, full-body workout. NOTE: To attend a class, current clients need a Reassessment (every 3 months), and new clients need a Physiotherapy Stability Assessment.
