What can I do for you?

My ideal client is an individual who is committed to learning about their condition, and is a willing participant in their rehabilitation. I enjoy treating pretty much any injury to the body; this allows me to utilize my entire skill set and years of experience to accurately diagnose and treat many conditions. I look at my client’s injuries or conditions like a puzzle. I problem solve to find out what has caused the situation and what makes your situation unique to you. Together, we then come up with an individualized solution that will offer you the best results in the shortest amount of time.

How else can I help you?

Using my training in spinal manipulation and Intra-Muscular Stimulation (IMS) in tandem, I can assess and effectively treat most injuries throughout the body. Spinal manipulation can restore the mobility to restricted spinal joints, whereas IMS can effectively release muscles which are in a painful spasm state;combined, these two tools allow you a much faster return to function. I have worked in private practice since 1995, including 10 years working with Rugby Canada as a travelling physiotherapist. Treating athletes in a world-class environment allowed me to work with some of the best medical professionals in the sports industry. Returning our rugby players to the field in the quickest and safest amount of time has directly translated to the level of care and attention that I can offer you. Regardless of injury or client demographic, you can trust that I will offer you the highest standard of care, and the fastest return to activity.

Want to know a little bit more about me?

I am proud to call the Cowichan Valley my home since 1995. In the aftermath of a 20 year rugby career, I’ve slowed my training down to mountain biking, obstacle racing, and skiing. I enjoy keeping fit, as it allows me to take advantage of the many opportunities available to us in the west coast outdoors.

Tim was very knowledgeable and took the time to really get to know what was going on with my injuries. Tim knew what was up with my shoulder and worked very hard to produce the results I was hoping for when I made my massage therapy appointment. I will definitely be coming back!
