WHAT MAKES JACK A GREAT PHYSIOTHERAPIST?
My treatment philosophy implements hands-on treatment modalities to enable patients to become active within their own treatment. I am also a big believer in the adaptability and robustness of the human body. This means when we treat ourselves with fragility we become fragile, and vice versa. I believe that successful outcomes are achieved by the practitioner and patient working as a team.
When it comes to successfully solving problems with the body, I believe communication is the key. It allows us to properly understand expectations and needs of the individual. Further it builds trust and rapport which have a major impact on successful injury management.
WHAT DOES JACK ENJOY DOING OUTSIDE OF WORK?
Outside of work, Jack is a passionate powerlifter who enjoys staying active through hiking and exploring new destinations. He loves playing chess, reading thought-provoking books, and indulging in great food. A true foodie, Jack is always on the hunt for amazing meals and exciting new restaurants to discover.
