About Rhonda's approach to sport physiotherapy
Rhonda’s approach to sport physiotherapy and athlete rehabilitation focuses on movement analysis to improve function and performance. Whether you’re a recreational runner looking to eliminate knee pain, an older adult wanting to stay active or introduce new activities, or an athlete looking to optimize your sport performance, Rhonda’s practice can benefit you! A typical sport physiotherapy appointment with Rhonda will include working to improve deficits in mobility, promoting stability and strength, enhancing motor control, and supporting overall function.
With over two decades in sport, Rhonda has extensive experience in numerous sports (contact, non-contact, court sports, and athletics), and has experience with a wide range of injuries (acute, chronic, post-surgical).
Did you know that Rhonda also serves as the sport physiotherapist for the Senior Women’s National Basketball Team (Tokyo 2021, here we come!). The approach she uses with the Olympic athlete mirrors the approach she uses with the Craven client.
Whether you are an olympic-level athlete or someone stepping foot in the gym for the first time, Rhonda’s unique approach to sport physiotherapy is meaningful and unprecedented.
