Raechel is an exceptionally well-rounded and experienced physiotherapist who has been practicing for over 20 years, with advanced training in many facets and areas of physiotherapy - including a special interest in women’s health, prenatal / postnatal management, and pelvic floor rehabilitation. She also has expertise in neurological, vestibular, post-surgery, geriatric, and orthopedic rehabilitation.

In 2000, she completed her Bachelor of Human Kinetics at the University of British Columbia and in 2003 completed a Master of Physical Therapy at the University of Toronto. Throughout her clinical career, she has practiced in a wide spectrum of clinical settings including acute care, rehabilitation hospitals, occupational rehabilitation programs and private physiotherapy clinics.

Life-long learning is very important to Raechel, and her advanced training includes completion of numerous post-graduate courses in pelvic floor rehabilitation, incontinence, cardiorespiratory interventions, neurological treatments (Bobath, vestibular, concussion), orthopaedics (hands-on manual therapy, functional exercise, fascial manipulation), visceral manipulation, gerontology (senior’s health) and most recently a focus on the female athlete (pelvic floor dysfunction and ante-natal/post natal exercise considerations in high intensity exercise, and more).

Raechel has always been fascinated and amazed by the human body, ever since a young age which led her to a career in physiotherapy. After experiencing the transformation of pregnancy with her two children, it had inspired her to focus on helping women navigate the changes one’s body goes through during this period. She is passionate about empowering people to achieve their personal health and wellness goals by providing a combination of education and evidence-based treatment interventions. Her goal is to provide you with care which will allow you to function as independently and successfully as possible in a way which is meaningful to you.

When she’s not helping others, Raechel enjoys running, yoga and spending time outdoors with her partner and two young daughters.

BA, R.AC (Dean’s List)

Registered Acupuncturist

Michelle is a Dean’s List graduate of the Acupuncture / TCM program at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, and also has Bachelor of Arts (Sociology) with a minor in Family Studies.

Michelle is a second-generation Chinese Canadian with strong ties to her culture. Chinese Medicine has been a part of her life from a young age from attending acupuncture appointments with her parents to watching her Grandpa boil pungent herbs in their garage.

The teachings and philosophies of Traditional Chinese Medicine are founded on the principles of balance and harmony – balance and harmony within yourself, with others, and with Mother Nature. When things are out of balance, dis-ease is the result.

Michelle aims to teach her patients to live intuitively and aligned with Mother Nature to achieve a life of balance. Outside of the clinic, Michelle loves spending time down at the beach with her dog (especially during low tide) and trying out new recipes in the kitchen.
