MISSION
At Amanda Nichol Physiotherapy my goal is to help my clients continue living their best life possible and to listen to my clients and help them achieve their specific goals. I believe in longer treatment times and spending quality time to achieve this. I lead an evidence based practice and follow what the current research says, and I also have over 12 years of clinical experience. I strive to provide the best possible care in a comfortable, safe and positive enviroment.
MY STORY
I grew up on a farm outside the small town of Killarney, Manitoba and have always been passionate about exploring in the outdoors. After high school I moved to Winnipeg and attended the University of Manitoba. I first completed a Bachelor of Science which lead me to continue my studies and pursue another degree in Bachelor of Medical Rehabilitation in Physiotherapy.
After graduating from Physiotherapy, I continued my education with the Canadian Physiotherapy Association and completed the orthopedic division levels and my advanced exam in 2017 to obtain my Diploma of Advanced Manual and Manipulative Physiotherapy and become an FCAMPT (fellow of the Canadian academy of manipulative physiotherapy). I am also certified in Gunn IMS (intramuscular stimulation) and Acupuncture. In addition to being a physiotherapist, I also enjoying teaching and mentoring and I have taught in the Registered Massage Therapy program.
In my spare time I'm an avid outdoor enthusiast and my biggest passion is hiking and back country camping. You will also find me dragon boating in the summer and skiing in the winter. I believe it's important to stay active and I want to help my clients to stay active as well and be able to continue to do the activities they love.
MY APPROACH
I have taken many courses over the years and I enjoy continuing to learn and grow my treatment skills. My physiotherapy treatments are a combination of everything I have learned along the way but are also tailored to your specific needs and requirements.
I believe in a combined approach to treatment and enjoy collaborating with other professionals to provide the best possible treatment for my clients.
