Peter Petropanagos, PT

A standout athlete during his university years, Peter made a remarkable comeback from a knee injury in his senior year to captain his team to its first-ever NCAA national championship in soccer at Franklin Pierce University In New Hampshire. This achievement was complemented by being named Senior Athlete Scholar of the Year and earning ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American honors three years in a row—the first time in his program's history. This experience not only fueled his passion for sports rehabilitation but also solidified his belief in the power of resilience, determination, and the importance of a holistic approach to recovery.

With a background in elite soccer as both a player and a coach, Peter draws upon his extensive knowledge of sports performance, injury prevention, and rehabilitation to help athletes of all levels regain peak performance. His training includes a Master’s of Science from the University of Toronto, certification in neurofunctional acupuncture, concussion therapy and vestibular rehabilitation. He is also a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy (FCAMPT), an internationally recognized designation for advanced manual therapy training.

Driven by compassion, education, and a commitment to fostering lasting relationships, Peter believes that healing is a journey best taken together. Whether working with an athlete recovering from injury or a client seeking improved wellness, his focus is on building trust and empowering patients to take charge of their health.

Outside the clinic, Peter enjoys family time, exercising, reading, and spending quality moments with his children. He’s also dedicated to continuous growth and learning, always staying at the forefront of emerging trends in health and wellness to offer his patients the highest standard of care.
