Provider information

Description

Kristen chose to specialize in pelvic floor physiotherapy while doing her Masters of Science in Physical Therapy at the UofA. One of her graduate placements was with the Urogynecology Clinic at the Lois Hole Hospital for Women, and she witnessed first-hand how urogynecological surgeries, pessary fittings, education and pelvic health physiotherapy treatments could improve a patient’s quality of life. She is all about setting realistic goals that are meaningful to her clients, and cares about reminding clients that investing in their health is one of the best investments they can make.
