Welcome To Our New Physiotherapist, Katie!

Welcome Katie Allward to the Balanced Body Team!

Katie grew up in the upper beaches of Toronto, playing volleyball 12 months of the year. From an early age, she worked hard to support and motivate her teammates to achieve their potential, both on and off the court. She brings the same leadership, support and positivity to Physiotherapy and is always looking to help her patients achieve their goals. Growing up playing competitive sports, Katie saw her fair share of injuries, introducing her to the world of rehabilitation quite early on. Katie credits her athletic leadership roles and early introduction to rehab for igniting her passion for Physical Therapy.

Katie did her physiotherapy training in Scotland, where she had the opportunity to experience a plethora of different Physiotherapy disciplines including, musculoskeletal, respiratory, surgical, paediatric neurorehabilitation and elderly rehab. It was Katie’s placement in women’s health that sparked a new passion for Pelvic Physiotherapy. She is now eager to provide her patients with a high standard of care. To ensure this, Katie has enrolled in Pelvic Health courses and will soon be able to help patients achieve optimal pelvic health.

Over her time in patient care, Katie has come to strongly believe in educating her patients to better understand their wellness journey, as patient involvement is the key to success. Katie strives to create a safe and non-judgemental environment and is here to help patients of all ages to achieve their movement goals.

During her spare time, you can find Katie hiking with her husband and her dog, tossing a disc with her friends, picking up a game of volleyball and spending time with her family.
