Common Musculoskeletal

• Shoulder Pain (e.g., Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy, Impingement, Frozen Shoulder/Adhesive Capsulitis): Common shoulder problems such as rotator cuff issues (tendinopathy, small tears), impingement syndrome, or adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) significantly affecting arm function and daily comfort.

• Tired of trouble with everyday tasks because of pain or weakness in my hands or grip interfering with playing a few sets of tennis without shoulder pain? Jennifer uses a blend of physiotherapy techniques to help you achieve better managing flare-ups with personalized strategies and feeling more in control of their symptoms and regain your freedom of movement.
• With Jennifer's help, managing feeling like my joints are just 'wearing out' and getting harder to move to achieve resuming gardening, hobbies, or household tasks without strain or discomfort becomes a clear journey, allowing patients to confidently re-engage with life and activities like competing effectively in their curling league games.
• Many individuals seek help from Jennifer, their physiotherapist, when recurrent dislocations or a feeling of instability in my shoulder or knee starts impacting daily life. Through a personalized physiotherapy plan, they often achieve a feeling of being 'unstuck' and more supple, empowering them to joyfully return to activities like peacefully paddling their kayak or canoe on the lake for hours.
