Johanna (pronounced "Yohanna") Nicholson holds a Master's of Physical Therapy from the University of Manitoba, and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Winnipeg. She loves getting clients back to their hobby, sport, job or regular day-to-day activities.
Johanna's Approach
"I recognize that every injury and each person is very unique," says Johanna. "So I like to provide a customized approach for each client that will fit with their lifestyle and schedule. I do this by partnering with my clients to meet their rehabilitation goals through a combination of education, hands-on therapy and therapeutic exercises.
"I believe it is important to get to the root of the problem and not only symptom management to help achieve optimal wellness.”
