Registered Physiotherapist (Senior Associate), Running Consultant, Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist
Hi there, I’m Idemar (“E.G.”), a Registered Physiotherapist and part of the Corktown team!
My unique journey as a physiotherapist began in 2016 when I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Physical Therapy from a federal university in Brazil. During my degree, I gained experience as a researcher in orthopedics and as a teaching assistant, which in 2013 granted me a full scholarship for an exchange program at the University of Toronto.
As a dedicated and meticulous physiotherapist, I am committed to uncovering the root cause of your complaint. My goal is to ensure that you fully understand your concerns and are actively engaged in your recovery process.
Throughout these years, I have collected some certifications, including FMS (Functional Movement Assessment), SFMA (Selective Functional Movement Assessment), Dry needling, Spinal Manipulation, ART ( Active Release Technique), IASTM (Instrumented Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation), GPR (Global Postural Reeducation – Souchard’s Method), Maitland’s Concept, Running Courses and more, all of which I bring to bear in my practice to provide the highest quality of care.
Outside the clinic, you will probably find me playing volleyball, swimming, attending music concerts, playing board games, eating at my favourite restaurants, or cuddling with my cats in no particular order.
Hope to see you soon!
