Physiotherapist
Nan, co-founder of Integral Performance Physio, has always had the vision of innovating the rehabilitation field and integrating the best available clinical evidence into practice. Now together with her partner Ryan, she is building this rehabilitation platform to provide you an elevated quality in comprehensive musculoskeletal care.
Following the completion of her Master of Science in Physical Therapy at McGill University in 2011, Nan developed a wide array of clinical experience, from sports-related injuries (e.g. ankle sprains, concussion, ACL tear), work-related injuries (e.g. overuse and postural syndrome), post-surgical cases, to chronic complex illness (e.g. fibromylgia, Joint Hypermobility Syndrome). Nan has helped countless patients not only recover from their injuries, but also transformed their body to their best performance level. Nan believes that by integrating invaluable empowerment, awareness over the body, and biomechanical efficiency, you can achieve a long-term wellness rather than just a quick fix.
Nan has always been passionate about her profession and continues to update her knowledge. As such she has been strongly involved in continuing education. In 2017, she obtained her second Master degree in Master of Clinical Science from Western University and proudly became a fellow of Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy (FCAMPT).
