Integrated Physiotherapy, Chiropractic, RMT and ND Care in Cranbrook.

Suzanne earned her Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy and Bachelor of Science in Physical Education (Honours) in 1988, followed by a Master of Rehabilitation Sciences from the University of British Columbia in 2017.

With over 38 years of experience in physiotherapy, Suzanne has worked in both public and private practice across western Canada. She has taught continuing education courses and presented at local, national and international conferences in the area of pelvic health, women’s health and fitness and wellness. Suzanne established Kootenay Therapy Center in 2005, providing comprehensive care in the areas of pelvic floor, women’s health, pre/post natal, chronic pain and sports injuries.

Suzanne is excited to continue providing care from her new location at Kootenay Health Centre, where she brings her extensive clinical experience and commitment to individualized, whole-person care. She believes that every system of the human body interacts with other parts of the body as well as with each individual’s environment. The best-practice approach to care involves not only evidence-based practice but also consideration of each client’s story, needs, and goals.

A lifelong learner, Suzanne has completed extensive post-graduate training in Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy, acupuncture, women’s health, chronic pain management, exercise, and manual therapy. She draws on this broad range of knowledge to develop thoughtful, personalized treatment plans designed to help patients move with greater confidence, manage pain, and return to the activities they value.

Outside the clinic, Suzanne enjoys an active Kootenay lifestyle. She loves running, hiking, biking, skiing, snowshoeing, and spending time at the lake with family, friends, and her dogs.
