M.ScPT, M.Sc, SFMA, Cert. Acupuncture, Gunn IMS, Spinal Manipulation

Over the past 17 years I have worked in a number of respected independent clinics treating a wide cross section of athletes, from beginners and improvers to highly experienced and competitive athletes. Having masters degrees in both physiotherapy and neuroscience has allowed me to integrate a deep understanding of how the brain controls the body and how the body is intended to move with current evidence based treatment techniques.

As an athlete, Tamara has been involved in sports from a young age. I competed in track and field, volleyball and soccer until finding my passion for basketball. Tamara completed at four National championships as a provincial team member representing Alberta, winning one bronze and two silver medals during this time. She is proud to have represented my hometown of Calgary, as a member of the University of Calgary’s Women’s Basketball team for five years. I was the captain of the team in my final two years. During this time, Tamara was nominated for Female Athlete of the Year for the University of Calgary and awarded the Canada West Defensive Player of the Year, which earned her a nomination for the top defensive player in all Canadian Intercollegiate Sport. This same year she earned a spot as a Canada West 2nd Team All-Star. She successfully completed her Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Exercise and Health Physiology from the University of Calgary and is now a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) and a Registered Kinesiologist through the Alberta Kinesiology Association (AKA). Through her undergraduate experience, she realized she had a love for achieving excellence and helping others do the same. Whether you are a stay-at-home mom, wishing you could do more physically with your kids, a weekend warrior who rides 100km+ a week trying to manage those minor aches and pains that accompany an active lifestyle, or a young aspiring athlete looking for an edge on your competition, Tamara wants to help you all. Tamara continues to strive to deepen my knowledge and skills as an S&C coach by furthering her education. She has successfully completed a Master of Science in Strength and Conditioning at St. Mary’s University in Twickenham, UK and now looks to collaborate with top professionals and therapists around Calgary to further her practical development.

Originally from Ontario, I’m a dedicated Physiotherapist passionate about providing sideline-to-sideline care, helping active individuals of all levels return to doing what they love. My education includes a Master of Science degree in Physiotherapy, a Master of Science degree in Biomechanics and Neuroscience, and a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Kinetics.

I employ a multifaceted approach to treatment, drawing upon a diverse skillset that encompasses manual therapy, exercise, education, and dry needling techniques. My goal is to empower each individual with the knowledge and tools they need to optimize their rehabilitation and limit future injury. My commitment to learning is also reflected in my pursuit of training in vestibular rehabilitation and concussion management. This knowledge allows me to effectively address a wide range of conditions, providing comprehensive care for my patients.

As well, I continue to assist in teaching and research practice. When I’m not in the clinic, I enjoy spending time with my family and our German Shepherd/Husky rescue. You can often find me on the local velodrome, as I’m also a competitive track cyclist

Since studying Physiotherapy at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia, I have gained extensive experience in the areas of orthopedic rehabilitation and acute shoulder and lower limb injury treatment and have had the opportunity to work with surgeons and sports medicine physicians in developing various physiotherapy treatment and pain management methods. I maintain a preventative outlook for body biomechanics and believe educating and teaching hands-on skills to my patients is essential to injury recovery. I am passionate about all sports and have worked with amateur and professional athletes in various fields including swimming, water polo, rugby and volleyball. My practice benefits from my own extensive athletic background having competed professionally for numerous years in swimming and rugby. I enjoy an active lifestyle with my family by regularly biking and hiking and have taken up snowboarding and playing hockey in the winter.
