We will work together, ensure you feel heard, assess your unique symptoms and develop a treatment plan together that works for your lifestyle. It's not only about what we do in the 30-60 minutes that I get to see you. It's also about what you do in the other 23 hours of the day that will make the biggest difference. I will give you the tools you need to optimize the functioning of your body.
Services
Working out at F45 in Port Coquitlam. When I'm not at the gym you will usually find me with a baby on my hip and a cup of coffee in my hand. Helping women to have joyful lives through physical activity. I love teaching everyone how to manage their own injuries and establish healthy self care routines.
Low back and pelvic pain does not have to be a "normal" part of being pregnant. During pregnancy and postpartum recovery, we can help you modify how you move and position your body to help ease or eliminate your pain. With a few simple exercises and changes to your daily routine we can get you enjoying your pregnancy.
Do you find that when you go to physiotherapy, that they don't understand the terminology or what you need to be able to do? Do you want to improve your mobility and strengthen to optimize your performance in dance? With over 25 years in the dance world, both as a dancer and a physiotherapist, I love helping dancers eliminate their pain, correct their technique, get stronger, and excel.
Telerehabilitation is physiotherapy performed over Zoom. That's right! Over a Zoom call we will conduct an interview to find out more about your injury and your history. I will do a postural assessment, movement analysis, check your mobility, and find out what hurts the most. You will be given an individualized treatment program that you can conduct from your home.
Recommended to book 40 minutes if you are wanting multiple types of treatment eg. Active Release Techniques, Acupuncture, Neurokinetic Therapy. It is also recommended if you are wanting to work on more than one area of the body within one appointment. Please note that while I want to help as many women as possible, I do not perform internal assessments of the pelvic floor.

Cathy is absolutely fantastic. I would give her 10 stars if I could! To say that working with her has been life-changing is no exaggeration. She is exceptionally skilled, thorough, patient, and has an incredible understanding of the interconnectedness of the human body. I am immensely grateful for her approach to healing. She is truly special.

I first met Cathy a few years ago when she helped with neck/shoulder injuries. She is knowledgeable, professional, kind and committed to developing a treatment plan and exercise program that gets results. Cathy takes the time to listen, understand and get to the heart of the issue. When I needed treatment for a recent knee injury, I was relieved to find Cathy was able to fit me into her busy schedule. If you are looking for an amazing physio, your search is over!

Cathy is the best physiotherapist you will ever meet. It was my first time seeking physiotherapy and I did not know what to expect. She welcomed me and carefully diagnose my issues. She provided a simple but effective plan. And with each visit I was provided with immediate relieve plus the prescribed exercise has helped me to stay away from pain. You will not be disappointed with Nest Physiotherapy if you are looking to book your visit.

I saw Cathy for my pregnancy with my second baby. What a huge contrast to my first one. Thanks to her I was able to get into my third trimester with a strong core which made a huge difference in my physical and mental well being. Investing in a good physio with expertise in pregnancy related issues will be a life saver for any woman. I especially loved working with Cathy. She really knows what she’s talking about and I’ve already recommended her to at least 5 other friends. I simply can’t say enough good things. I will be going back after the baby comes so she can have me back to running

Cathy has helped me so much with a chronic knee issue and a recent shoulder injury. Her physio treatments have made all the difference to me. I appreciate her attention to detail, her communication that makes me fully understand her treatment plan and her friendly and kind approach. I have happily recommended her to friends and family and will continue to do so!

Starting physio with Cathy after my c-section was the best decision I made for my postpartum health. I was so scared to move after the surgery but wanted to get back to an active lifestyle. Cathy had endless patience with me when I needed extra direction to be sure I was doing each exercise correctly. The app she uses to prescribe the exercises helped so much with accountability and reminding me how to do them. I have regained confidence in my own body and have the strength and techniques to be able to safely carry my baby as she gets heavier and return to doing regular workouts. I also felt safe
