Centred Physiotherapy

Centred Physiotherapy Sarah offers orthopaedic and women's pelvic health physiotherapy either in-clinic or in the comfort of your home.

Move with confidence & find your centre ~ at every stage of life. For me it was my big toe… I had started practicing yoga to help relieve stress while I was attending Physiotherapy School. During one of my first classes an incredible instructor gave a subtle cue about my big toe while in triangle pose. Unexpectedly I felt an amazing opening along the side of my body and that was it, the pose and m

y life were forever changed! From that moment on I became passionate about exploring the body through yoga and learning to integrate the principles of yoga with my knowledge as a Physiotherapist. Through my studies I came to learn that yoga was much more than just the physical experience that I was so focused on. I began to see the way a consistent practice brought balance and light to my life and a deeper understanding of my true self. As a teacher my goal is to share this light with my students and for each student to leave the class feeling as though it was meant just for them. I look forward to sharing this practice with you!

Wow! September and back to school was a whirlwind for my family, how about yours? If you have a minute share an emoji of how you are feeling heading into October.
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ll go first: 😴🍁☕️ 🙃🥰
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now that we are settling in to school I often get questions from parents and caregivers about helping to manage bathroom accidents. I gathered some of my top tips in this post and I dive deeper into all the little details in my online workshop (It’s Free or pay what you can up to $22.00 and the Link is in my Bio!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you need a little more help navigating these concerns I also offer both virtual and in-person paediatric pelvic health physiotherapy consultations.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My goal is if for both caregivers and kiddos to feel calm and confident tackling all things continence!

From Paediatrics to (Peri)menopause! I love helping pelvic floors through all of life’s phases.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am so excited to be joining “Menopause Like a Pro”, virtual event as a speaker.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The topic of perimenopause and menopause and its impact on our pelvic floor health and overall well-being has been coming up so much in my pelvic health PT practice and also with friends and family.
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Like many women in my practice I find myself just moving out of the postpartum phase and all of the sudden hit with this new phase of perimenopause approaching!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m excited to dive into a talk with Susana about tips for optimizing you pelvic health and your connection to your pelvic floor as you move into and through this phase of life.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ll also be sharing a “yoga for connecting to your pelvic floor” video with participants to help apply all that we learn. Hope to see you in the talk and on your yoga mat!

One of the top questions I get asked is, “how can I make it easier to actually do my physio exercises?”
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get it!
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even as a physio I have trouble fitting my own exercises and movement breaks in.
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I decided to compile my top 10 tips for getting those exercises done in my newest blog (Link in bio).
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let me know what you think and share if you have any other strategies that help you stay on track with your exercises.

What lights me up as a physio? ✨

Connection!
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whether it’s helping you connect to your core muscles or a different way of moving, or connecting on your goals and on what you value in your physiotherapy care.
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For me connection is where the magic happens!🪄
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Physio and allied health friends what lights you up in your practice?
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And for client’s, what are you looking for in your Physio/health care provider ?
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let’s make some connections…

I’m feeling so refreshed and inspired as I return to work post maternity leave. One thing helping me stay centred is enjoying 3 days in the clinic and 2 days with this guy!
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of the things I’m loving helping client’s with these days are:
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Supporting your body and recovery of your core and pelvic floor function post baby.
- Helping manage symptoms and gain confidence being active after incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse symptoms.
- Helping parents and children navigate bladder or bowel accidents, constipation and bed wetting.
- Helping client’s move past a persistent injury and re-gain confidence in being active.
- Helping client’s shake up their posture habits and find new movement strategies.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some things I’m loving in this stage with a 1 year old: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Morning playtime together at the EarlyON program
- Nature walks and talks with good company
- Hearing new words like “Mama”!
- Watching how much he loves his big brothers!

I am so excited to be sharing my first online workshop offering! 👩‍💻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love that while on maternity leave I can continue to help support families navigating paediatric pelvic health challenges.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After taking training in this area in order to help my own children, it sparked a passion in me to help other parents and children navigate these often tricky situations with calmness and confidence.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love seeing the shift that happens in both parents and kiddos when we start to find their “bladder boss” confidence!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What we will cover:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🧻Strategies to help ease stress on parents and children navigating bathroom accidents and constipation at home or at school. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🔨Tools to help children connect what their body is feeling with successful toileting skills and behaviours. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🗣Reframing our language to help encourage our child’s brain body connection with confidence.

To all my lovely clients, don’t worry I will be continuing to see clients through the fall and hopefully until early December🤞⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m also working on a plan to serve the Centred Physiotherapy community until my return!

Here’s a little sneak peak of how Centred Physiotherapy can turn any room into a treatment room.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My light weight treatment table makes it easy to set up at each appointment and can turn any living space into a clinic space.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The treatment table is just one tool we can use for manual therapy but we often move beyond the table and opt for active exercise! My favourite part is getting creative and helping clients to get active and achieve their goals in their home.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Note: Appropriate PPE is worn at each visit but I thought it would be fun to share the smile behind my mask 👋

We are looking for a physiotherapist to join our mobile team. Scroll ➡️ through the slides above for more info or reach out to [email protected] to explore this opportunity further.
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This role would be a great fit for anyone looking for mentorship in building an in-home practice.
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This opportunity would start out as part-time and build as you see fit.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This position could also work well for someone looking to add a few hours of in-home care to another part time position.
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I made the shift to in-home care when I knew I needed to feel more centred in my life and work and to offer care that felt truly client centred. If this style of practice interests you, come join me and... Move from your centre!

Taking some time to get centred with my little crew!
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Slow mornings, bottomless coffee, exploring trails, campfires, rainy day rest, lake swims and ice cream just a few things that bring me back to centre!
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’d love to hear what brings you back to your centre?
  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Looking forward to seeing clients again on Aug 17th.

We instantly shared a connection over our love of yoga, mobile physiotherapy, pelvic health and even our shared name! Sara is now taking enrolment for her Yoga for the Busy Woman Program @yogaforthebusywoman which includes yoga flows targeting specific joints, as well as special flows including chair yoga, pelvic health, balance, stress management and breathing just to name a few. It’s a Physio Yoga dream! Head on over to her page where she is also offering a free 3 Day Trial and get your Physiotherapy Yoga On!

About Centred Physiotherapy

One of the foundations of the physiotherapy profession is offering patient “Centred” care. That means care that takes into account all aspects of a patient’s life. Things like your work, your hobbies, your responsibilities, your goals, the things that nourish you and even the things that stress you.

Sarah believes exceptional care happens when both the therapist and client are “Centred” and working on these shared meaningful goals. For Sarah this is achieved by scheduling ample time and by offering one-on-one visits in the comfort of your home. Sarah’s approach is grounded in extensive post-graduate training, clinical experience and evidence-based practices.

Sarah gets to the “Centre” of the problem at hand by using an integrative approach to treatment including a detailed biomechanical exam, advanced training in manual therapy, thoughtful prescriptive exercise, and complementary tools such as acupuncture, yoga and mindfulness practices.

Through supportive listening Sarah connects with each client around what is meaningful to them and eagerly works with other health care providers such as family physicians and allied health practitioners to create a team approach to care.
