🎉 Welcome to the Lakeview team, Johnny! 🎉

We’re excited to welcome Johnny to Lakeview Physiotherapy & Movement Studio! 👋

Johnny earned his Master of Physical Therapy from the University of Sydney and has continued his education with advanced training in dry needling (Elevate Level II), Mulligan techniques for the upper quadrant, and Fascial Stretch Therapy Level 1.

Before becoming a physiotherapist, Johnny worked as a personal trainer at the University of Alberta, helping clients improve their fitness, prevent injuries, and stay active in the sports and activities they love.

He has experience treating a wide range of conditions, including muscle and ligament injuries, arthritis, joint replacements, motor vehicle accident injuries, and neck and back pain. Johnny believes that understanding your diagnosis is an important part of recovery and takes the time to create a personalized treatment plan for each client. His approach combines education, hands-on manual therapy, and individualized exercise to help people achieve lasting results.

As an athlete who successfully recovered from an ACL injury and returned to competitive track and field, Johnny understands the physical and mental challenges that come with rehabilitation. He brings that firsthand experience to his practice, supporting clients from the early stages of injury through to a confident return to full function. 💪

Outside the clinic, you’ll find Johnny rock climbing, hiking, or weight training. He is also fluent in Cantonese and conversational in Mandarin, allowing him to connect with and care for clients in the language they are most comfortable using.

We’re so happy to have you on the team, Johnny! Welcome to Lakeview! 💙
