Mark is a registered physiotherapist who completed his undergraduate degree in Human Kinetics (B.Sc. HK) and Ottawa University, and his Master's degree in Physiotherapy (M.PT) at Queen’s University.
He started his journey through physiotherapy as a physiotherapy assistant out of high school and continued to work during his University period as an assistant, kinesiologist, and clinic admin at multiple locations across our company. He graduated from Queen’s in 2011 in Kingston.
Mark’s treatment style combines manual therapy with mobilizations of joints, soft tissue and myofascial releases, and exercise therapy. He treats all forms of injures such as overuse, postural, chronic, and acute. Mark has a background in Movement Diagnosis Therapy (MDT from the McKenzie Institute) and has completed levels A-D for advanced cervical, lumbar, thoracic spine, upper and lower extremity assessment and treatment techniques, along with the E level for advanced practitioner techniques. This allows him to find the sources of pains instead of symptom-based diagnosis and treatments. He also treats TMJ, Dizziness and vestibular disorders, and concussions.
He is also certified to perform acupuncture and dry needling. Mark also has 15+ years of experience with custom and off the shelf bracing, compressions socks and therapy, along with custom orthotics and percussion massagers.
