Hello, I’m Meagan! I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a Masters degree in Physical Therapy and a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology. Born and raised in Vancouver, I love the mountains, the ocean, and the city. I consider myself a true Vancouverite.

I am excited to bring a new lens to pelvic floor rehab to the Bump Physio Community. I have been an athlete my entire life competing in various sports including track and field, wrestling, and now as a competitive Olympic weightlifter, I am passionate about treating athletes who struggle with pelvic floor related issues in addition to anyone hoping to return to sport or optimize their day to day activities.

I strive to provide each client with a safe space that is free of judgment in order to work towards their physiotherapy goals. I utilize a person-centered approach to my practice. I believe that an individual’s psychological, physiological and social well-being all play into how they are feeling and strive to help my clients regain confidence and excel in all three aspects using a combination of manual therapy, exercise and patient education.

On my days off, you can catch me hiking with my dog, Kairo, spending the day on my paddle board in the ocean, or training with my team in Richmond in the evenings!

My certifications include Pelvic Health Level 1 & 2 through Pelvic Health Solutions and Advanced Integrated Musculoskeletal Level 1.

Hello, I’m Pav! I completed my Bachelor of Kinesiology at Simon Fraser University before moving to Australia to complete my Master of Physical Therapy at the University of Sydney. During my time in Australia, I gained experience working in a variety of areas such as hospitals, rehabilitation centers and private clinics where I worked alongside patients with musculoskeletal, neurological and cardiorespiratory conditions.

I moved back to Canada in 2021 and joined the Bump Team as a Client Experience Coordinator whilst preparing for my physiotherapy registration exam. It was during this time with Bump that I found my interest in pelvic floor physiotherapy and a desire to educate women on their health and support them in their return to normal activities whilst improving their overall quality of life.

I truly believe every individual is unique in their own way and so are their goals, which is why I like to structure each patient’s course of treatment around their desired goals. My treatment approach is focused around providing education and exercise-based therapy and allowing clients to be active participants in their course of care. Making sure my patients feel heard and comfortable is of utmost importance to me.

Outside of the clinic you can find me spending time with my dog, family/friends, keeping up with Sports TV or catching sunsets with a cup of coffee!

Super excited to be a part of BUMP in this new role!

My name is Aleesha! :)

I was born and raised in the beautiful province of British Columbia, where I completed both my Bachelors of Kinesiology and Master of Physical Therapy at the University of British Columbia. Growing up, I always knew I wanted to get into a profession that allowed me to help others. That, along with my passion for sports steered me in the direction of becoming a physiotherapist.

Why pelvic floor physiotherapy? Once I began my Master’s program, I developed an interest in pelvic floor physiotherapy as I discovered loved ones around me were silently living with pelvic floor dysfunctions and pain. I saw how issues like incontinence, constipation, poor scar mobility, dyspareunia, impacted not only their physical health but also their, mental, social, and emotional well-being. This allowed me to understand and appreciate the integral role pelvic health plays in our daily function and overall quality of life. I knew right then, I wanted to be part of the change, erasing the stigma and normalizing conversations around pelvic health that are not openly discussed.

I strongly believe in taking the time to build strong therapeutic connections with my clients in a space where they feel seen, safe, and supported with whatever they may be experiencing. My goal is to empower all my clients, no matter what stage of life, to feel confident in their bodies, comfortable talking about their bodies and capable in what their bodies can do. My approach is to provide clients with a foundation of knowledge, exercises, manual therapy, and self-management strategies, to help achieve any goal they set out for themselves, pre- or post-natal, no matter how big or small!

Pelvic Health Certifications: * Pelvic Health Solutions Level 1 * Pelvic Health Solutions Level 2

When not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, travelling, watching and playing sports. You can find me playing hockey or at the driving range working on my golf game.

I am excited to be a part of this amazing team of women at BUMP and I look forward to supporting you along your journey!

Hi, I’m Gurmeen! I was born and raised in Calgary a.k.a Cowtown. Although I will forever be a Flames fan, I am super stoked about moving to B.C and being a part of the Bump Family! I graduated from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor of Kinesiology and from the University of Alberta with a Master of Science in Physical Therapy. I am also a certified yoga teacher!

Growing up I wanted to be a part of a profession that focused on supporting individuals with the tools they needed to improve their health. As a stress reliever from school, I began regularly practicing yoga, barre, and Pilates, where I was introduced to the pelvic floor and core. During physio school, I learned more about pelvic floor physiotherapy and was amazed about the connection between our pelvic floor and physical activity/movement! Moreover, I realized how real pelvic health concerns are and how important it is to create actual change versus band-aid solutions. Working together with my clients, I hope to decrease the stigma around pelvic health and empower/support others on their healing journeys. Some of my treatment approaches include providing clients with education, self-management strategies, and personalized exercise programs.

In my free time, I love doing yoga, trying new wineries/breweries with my husband, and hanging out with friends and family. As I have newly moved to BC this summer, I’m excited to go on hikes and try new restaurants around the city. I am so proud to be a part of this community and cannot wait to help my clients get back to what they love to do!

Hello,

I’m Ale (she/her), I was born in Colombia and moved to North Vancouver when I was 7 years old. Here, I fell in love with all that BC has to offer. I grew up as a competitive swimmer and received a swimming scholarship to Concordia University in sunny Irvine California. Here, I completed my Bachelor of Arts degree in Exercise and Sports Science. A few years later, I moved to Kingston Ontario to complete my Masters’ of Physical Therapy degree at Queens University.

My Why?

My entire life, I have always loved helping others. In becoming a physiotherapist, I am privileged to help my clients improve their quality of life. I believe, this is the best gift I could ever give someone. While I was a student, I quickly realized, that I had a keen interest in pelvic health.

I am passionate about working as a pelvic floor physio because there is a huge gap in care. I want to bring more awareness and knowledge about what women can do to improve their quality of life pre and postpartum. More importantly, to empower women with the knowledge to better understand their pelvis and how it ties so closely to everything we do and how our bodies function. I also enjoy and have experience working with adults and children in orthopaedic rehabilitation and sports injuries.

Certifications: - Pelvic Health Solutions Level 1-3 - Soft Tissue Release - Acupuncture Canada Level 1 - Dry needling / IMS - Acupuncture Canada Level 2 - Dry needling /IMS

In my free time I enjoy spending time with friends and family. I love exploring BC’s hikes and will jump into any body of water when given the opportunity. I am thrilled to be a part of the amazing team at Bump and I look forward to improving your pelvic health soon!

And Yes, I am fluent in Español :)

Hi, I’m Natalie (she/her). a.k.a. Mama to two adorable kids and wife to an ultra-patient IT consultant 😊 I have over 18 years of clinical experience in Sports and orthopaedic physiotherapy and more recently I’ve become certified in Clinical Pilates and in Pelvic Health.

My interest in Pelvic Health started in my 1st pregnancy in 2015. Having experienced some firsthand challenges pre and post-pregnancy, I explored and learned ways to make my pregnancy journey meaningful and successful. Education has been a powerful tool for me, both in preparation for pregnancy, in pregnancy and in my postpartum recovery.

It is my passion to educate and empower clients. It allows your recovery to be less limited by unfounded fears (both in thought and movement!) and to focus on the gains (outcomes?) and goals of the visit. I am an advocate for human movement and mechanics! Both in my day-to-day life and clinical practice, I am always guided with the belief that everyone has a voice or journey to be shared and heard.

I value lifelong learning, and my additional course work includes: Calibrate Pilates (Reformer and Mat), Pelvic Health Level 1, Level 2 Orthopedic Levels in Manual Therapy, ROST Therapy training for Sacro-Iliac Pain, Power Over Prolapse course, K-Taping Pro Course.

Personally, I value faith, family and integrity. I enjoy “park hopping” with my kids, unplanned picnics with the family, fabulous farmer’s market finds and discovering great hole in the wall restaurants or small cafes! I look forward to meeting you!

Kimberley (she/her) graduated from Simon Fraser University with a Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology in 2007. She went on to continue her education at the University of Alberta, graduating in 2010 with a Masters of Science in Physical Therapy. Since graduating, she has returned to BC, and has been working in the Fraser Valley helping people get healthy, optimize their function and return to the things they love!

Kimberley is a lifelong learner who is always keen to expand her knowledge and skill set. After years of working in private practice, treating a wide variety of clients with various orthopedic conditions, it was this drive to further understand how the body functions that led her to pursue further training in Pelvic Health Physiotherapy (well, that and having 2 kids)!

Kimberley employs a client centered, biopsychosocial, and active approach to treatment. She draws from her educational background in Kinesiology and post graduate training in manual therapy and dry needling to tailor a treatment plan to each individual based on the nature of their presenting concern, their stage in recovery, and their goals for treatment. She recognizes that to achieve optimal treatment outcomes it must be recognized that each individual functions as a whole person who knows their body best and is required to be an active participant in their own recovery.

In her spare time you can find her building sandcastles at the beach with her two littles, exploring nature with her family, and attempting to find time to do some self-care she recommends for her clients (reading a book, doing some yoga, deep breathing…)!

Other designations: * CAFCI * FDN 1 * Pelvic Floor Rehab Urosante Level 1 * Connect Therapy™ Series Graduate by Dr Linda Joy Lee * Certified Rost Therapy Clinician for Pelvic Girdle Pain during and after Pregnancy * Calibrate Clinical Pilates (Mat and Reformer)

I completed my Masters of Physical Therapy at the University of Sydney in 2013 after obtaining my Bachelors of Kinesiology degree at SFU. My passion for travel led me to jump at the opportunity to study abroad. I have visited over 15 countries and can’t wait to travel again when the kids are older. Running and lifting weights is my therapy and I have completed numerous half-marathons, marathons and some sprint triathlons.

My interest for Women’s Health sparked when I was a young girl watching my mom suffer from gynaecological issues. In my 20’s, I wanted to learn more about my own pelvic floor dysfunction and help more women which led me to get certified in Pelvic Floor Rehab. I am passionate about life long learning and have completed numerous post-graduate courses in manual therapy, pelvic health, acupuncture, and dry needling. I completed the Connect Therapy™ Series with Dr. Linda Joy Lee which involves whole body assessment, finding the root cause of dysfunction and treating the whole person. I have a holistic care approach in assessing and treating the pelvic floor and how it functions with the rest of the body. The body and mind are interconnected and I strive to create a safe space for people to talk about their pelvic health. I believe strongly in listening to my clients, and having you as an active participant in your treatment plan. I also love integrating Pilates based exercises to help you move with more ease and a stronger foundation. I want to empower women to understand their bodies and help women transition through different stages of life: Bump and Beyond. I LOVE what I do: helping people to live their fullest lives with joy and good health. Since having 2 babies, I am even more committed to specializing my practice in pelvic health. I am so lucky to be surrounded by compassionate and talented teammates at BUMP. I am excited to meet YOU and help you get back to doing the things you love with confidence and ease!

Outside the clinic, you can find me cleaning up after my kids and dog. We love to be outdoors in nature and exploring the local trails. To keep me calm and grounded, I strive to practice yoga daily.

Kat was born in Poland, and immigrated to Canada with her family as a young child. She still speaks fluent Polish! Kat graduated from the University of British Columbia with an undergraduate degree in Kinesiology, and has been working in the fitness industry for 16 years. She is a Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher and is comprehensively trained in teaching the Pilates Method.

Kat has experienced first hand the importance of pelvic floor and core rehabilitation after the birth of her first child. Being physically fit throughout her entire adult life, Kat was shocked by the changes her body endured postpartum. Weakened pelvic floor muscles, diastasis recti, and a consistently aching lower and upper back motivated her to enroll in the Bellies Inc. Core Confidence program. Kat was impressed by how much she learned in a relatively short amount of time. The course opened her eyes to just how little support is provided for postpartum care when it comes to pelvic floor and core rehabilitation. Upon completion, Kat felt like she finally found her calling in the world of exercise! Kat is driven to help her clients succeed in gaining confidence in their bodies through exercise rehabilitation and self love and acceptance.

When she is not working with clients, or talking to other moms about their fertility, prenatal, and postpartum journeys, Kat loves to spend her free time exploring the outdoors with her family - camping, hiking, or just park hopping, having silly dance parties in her kitchen with her two kids, watching stand up comedy with her husband, writing, or working on an arts and crafts project!

Hi, I’m Giorgia, I was born and raised in Calgary and moved to Victoria when I was 18 years old. I fell in love with the west coast and all that it has to offer. I started at UVic for the first couple years, and joined the rowing team while I was there. I then switched gears and completed my degree at Camosun College in Athletic and Exercise Therapy. A few years later in the midst of the pandemic, I moved back to Edmonton Alberta to complete my Masters’ of Physical Therapy. After braving the Alberta winters once again, I’m thrilled to be coming back to BC to work in Port Moody. I’m very excited to be close to some amazing hikes and breweries!

I am incredibly passionate about helping people of all ages and abilities which lead me to choose physiotherapy as my career. One of my favorite parts about being a physio is that I get to interact with people and empower them through movement, hands on treatment and client-centered education. Pelvic Health piqued my interest when I was a physio student because it’s not something everyone is comfortable talking about. Getting to know your pelvic floor can be empowering for every body. After being drawn to pelvic health, I decided to complete Pelvic Health Solutions Level 1 and 2 while still in physio school to learn more. I strive to always listen and understand how a person’s injury or impairment is impacting their daily life, and give them the tools and strategies to support their recovery at home as well as in- clinic. In addition to pelvic health, I also have a special interest in low back and shoulder injuries given my own past experiences. I feel very fortunate to be in a career where lifelong learning is possible and I’m looking forward to learning more about persistent pain, pelvic girdle pain, vestibular and neurological rehab.

In my free time, I love hanging out with my friends, trying new foods, filling up on countless Americanos and finding the best negroni .I recently got into kayaking and have had two summers of multi-day kayaking trips in Desolation Sound and in the Southern Gulf Islands - both were absolutely spectacular! I highly recommend it.

I can’t wait to meet you in the clinic!
