Physiotherapy

Miles Morgan

MScPT, MPA

Hi. I want to help you. Yes, even you. 

That’s why I became a physio. If I can’t help you, I’ll do whatever I can to find someone who can. I won’t tell you to stop training or stop exercising, or blame all your problems on “weak glutes”. I will ensure you leave the clinic feeling empowered with an understanding of what is going on with your body, and provide you with a system to achieve your fitness/rehab goals. I’m also a certified personal trainer, but my passion is rehab medicine for all humans of all ages and body types. I also have experience working with oncology patients through the Cross Cancer Institute. I incorporate IMS and SFMA (selective functional movement assessments) in the majority of my practice. When I’m not in the clinic (which is rare) surrounded by talented staff, great clients and exceptional work colleagues, I’ll be hanging out with my amazing wife and two kids, and trying to find time to train for Ironman 2023 (?) in the hopes that I can beat my 2010 time.
