Meet Our Physiotherapist

Sam graduated with a Bachelor of Human Kinetics from UBCO where he spent 2 years working with the Varsity Men’s Basketball team. He moved to Vancouver to work as a Kinesiologist before graduating with a Master of Physical Therapy degree from UBC. Throughout this journey, Sam has treated a variety of populations from the weekend warrior to collegiate and professional athletes.

​

Over the last few years Sam worked as a Physiotherapist in Vancouver, Powell River and now Kelowna. He has taken additional training in IMS/dry needling, manual therapy, golf performance with the Titleist Performance Institute, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, and most notably has been trained in the Schroth Method for treating scoliosis and Scheuermann's kyphosis. He utilized this training while working for the ScoliClinic prior to moving to Kelowna last year. He has now started ScoliOkanagan Physiotherapy to increase access to care to those with scoliosis and Scheuermann's kyphosis in BC's interior.

 

Sam appreciates that any injury or condition requires an individualized treatment plan; his philosophy is to implement an eclectic approach to help people achieve their goals. When he isn’t in the clinic, you are likely to find Sam in the outdoors either hiking, mountain biking, or golfing.
