Cassie completed her Master’s of Physical Therapy at the University of Toronto, and her Bachelor’s of Rehabilitation Sciences at Western University. Cassie became passionate about pelvic health when she became pregnant with her son and experienced for herself the profound effect pelvic physiotherapy can have on health and quality of life. Cassie’s primary goal as a clinician is to help her clients feel comfortable and empowered, and to consider the whole person when providing treatment.

Cassie has recently moved to Port Moody from Toronto, and although she loves the food, culture, and people in Toronto, she’s falling in love with the breweries, ocean, and endless hiking options in Port Moody. In her spare time you can typically find her park-hopping with her toddler, picnicking with friends, or doing activities that revolve around eating great food.

Cassie values lifelong learning and ongoing education. Over the past 6 years she has gained experience in conditions involving neurological rehab, vestibular rehab, persistent pain, and musculoskeletal injuries. She has taken several post-graduate courses to improve her skills including both internal and external pelvic floor training, MDT McKenzie training for treatment of the spine and extremities, and vestibular rehabilitation training. Cassie so happy to be part of the team at Bump!

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.

My name is Mette, I was born and raised in Denmark, but moved to Vancouver in 2016 with my husband, two sons and a 3rd on the way. My husband received an amazing job offer and we saw the opportunity to move abroad, take a chance on an adventure and gain a new perspective to our daily lives.

I grew up in the countryside of Denmark. I love being surrounded by nature and staying active through soccer and gymnastics. Through sport, I found an interest in the body and movement, and the importance of physical and mental health. I knew this was something I wanted to pursue.

Graduating from University College Lillebaelt, Odense, Denmark in 2009 with a Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy. I have since worked primarily at orthopedic clinics and as a Pilates teacher. My passion is to involve my clients in their own care and promote movement. Movement has a fundamental influence on a person’s physical and mental well-being, which I want to encourage in a way that makes sense for each person.

I have taken several courses through my career with special interest in shoulder, fysioflow (myofascial training), Pilates, McKenzie (lumbar A), and have now completed Pelvic Health Solutions level 1 and 2. Pelvic floor has always had my interest because of its close connection with Pilates, but I wanted more clinical and personal experience going into this intimate area. Now having given birth 3 times and all were very different experiences, I appreciate all the knowledge and research that is going into pelvic health. I am very excited to be a part of this very knowledgeable team and help you improve your pelvic health.

In my spare time, you will see me with my sons at their various activities with a coffee in hand or outside enjoying the beautiful nature in BC.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Hello there, I’m Alyssa! I hold a Bachelor’s in Kinesiology and, more recently, a Master’s in Physical Therapy from the University of British Columbia. My passion for physical therapy is deeply rooted in the belief that effective, comfortable, and functional movement is key to enjoying life to the fullest and achieving a high quality of life.

Women’s health is a cause close to my heart, and I advocate for it through specialized pelvic health physical therapy, offering individualized treatment. I prioritize open communication to create a welcoming treatment space tailored to your needs, wants, and goals. Alongside focusing on the pelvic floor, I adopt a whole-body/holistic approach to guide you back to the activities you love.

The most rewarding aspect of being a physiotherapist, for me, is working closely alongside you in your recovery, empowering you to reach your individual goals. I am interested in pre-/postpartum care, the role of the pelvic floor in sports and running and assisting those looking to become more active in their day-to-day lives! When I’m not at Bump, you’ll find me applying my physio skills in the ICU and cardiac surgery units at Royal Columbian Hospital.

In my free time, you can find me exploring BC through hiking and backpacking, and I’m always on the lookout for the best restaurants in the Lower Mainland. I’m also passionate about travelling - I’ve been to 13 countries and counting. Ask me about my time in New Zealand! I’m excited about the prospect of meeting you and being a part of your recovery journey!

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.

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!

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!
