Meet Emily Branderhorst.
Registered Physiotherapist & Pelvic Health Physiotherapist (PT, MscPT, BKin)
Registered Physiotherapist | Pelvic Health Physiotherapist | Coach | fitness enthusiast |Movement and sport have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up playing sports and eventually found my passion for track and field, competing in high jump at the University of Toronto, where I was fortunate enough to become a two-time national champion. My years as a competitive athlete taught me the importance of strength, resilience, and consistency, and ultimately inspired me to pursue a career in physiotherapy.
I completed my Master of Physiotherapy at McMaster University and have since gained experience in both hospital and outpatient settings, treating everything from acute injuries to post-operative rehabilitation. I love working with people who are motivated to move, whether that means returning to running, getting back into the gym, or simply feeling stronger and more confident in everyday life.
My approach to physiotherapy is collaborative, individualized, and rooted in evidence-based practice. I combine hands-on treatment, exercise, and education to help people better understand their injuries and build confidence in movement.
One of my favourite parts of being a physiotherapist is helping people discover (or rediscover!) their passion for movement, whatever that might look like for them. Whether it's running a marathon, getting back to a favourite sport, or simply feeling stronger in everyday life, I love helping people work toward goals that are meaningful to them.
Outside the clinic, now that I'm no longer competing in high jump, I love finding new ways to stay active, whether that's running, strength training, or trying out a Pilates class. When I'm not moving, you'll usually find me trying new recipes, planning my next travel adventure, or spending time with my goldendoodle, Peanut!
