A little something about Kaitlin

Kaitlin Phillips completed her Master of Physical Therapy at Western University in London, Ontario, in 2017. She received a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Cumberland University in Tennessee while playing varsity soccer. Throughout Kaitlin’s career as a soccer player, she had several minor injuries and witnessed a wide range of other, more debilitating injuries. Experiencing and seeing these injuries firsthand has given her a greater understanding of the physical and mental aspects associated with the inability to participate in sports and activities of daily living.

Kaitlin completed her ACSM personal training certification; therefore, her approach to treatment begins with looking at the entire body as a whole and focusing on improving movement patterns and alignment. While doing this, Kaitlin is not only able to assist with the rehabilitation of injuries but also with the prevention of future injuries.

Kaitlin works with elite athletes in hockey and is a specialist in ACL pre- and post-operative rehabilitation. She has additional training in concussions, GLA:D Therapy, and acupuncture. Kaitlin is a Jr. Partner at LiveActive Sport Medicine, where she has spent her entire career.

In Kaitlin’s free time, she enjoys running, strength training, basketball, trying new cafes and restaurants, and spending time with friends and family. Originally from Edmonton, Alberta, she would be happy to hear any tips for exploring Toronto!
