Our Team
“The best part of this job is how inspiring it can be to help someone regain independence and hope after a significant loss of function. I feel like I’m on the journey with them, facing challenges and obstacles, learning to problem solve and celebrate with them in their successes.”

Hello I’m Melanie. I have been a neuro physio for more than 35 years and my great passion is to help restore function to people whose lives have been affected by conditions such as stroke, spinal cord injury or other neurological conditions. I work together with you to develop a customised treatment plan for your specific needs.
I have been extensively trained in the Bobath Concept which is an individualised way of looking at how our bodies move and how we can recover after an injury. It focuses on how we control our posture, perform tasks, and use our senses to move better.
I graduated in 1988 in the UK then worked in neurology and neurosurgical acute care in at a large teaching hospital in Toronto before moving into private neuro rehab in the community in 1995. In 2009 I founded Concept Physio in and we opened our first location in 2012 in Oakville followed by the Burlington location in 2022.
When I’m not at work I love to play pickleball, garden in my city allotment or explore Ontario’s great outdoors camping and canoeing.
