It was through his own rehabilitation experiences that he developed a strong interest in anatomy and recovery, ultimately leading him to pursue a career in physiotherapy.
As a physiotherapist, Evan takes a thorough, individualized approach to assessment—aiming to identify the root cause of each issue and tailor treatment accordingly. He is known for his “gentle, but firm” style, tailoring a balance between pushing patients toward progress while providing the support they need along the way. His treatment approach incorporates manual therapy, dry needling (IMS), exercise-based rehabilitation, and education to help clients achieve the best possible outcomes.
Evan’s rehab philosophy is simple: *consistency is better than perfection*.
