Why I Got into Athletic Therapy and Why I Love What I Do!
My name is Megan and I am a Certified Athletic Therapist + Fascial Stretch Therapist + TPI Therapist and the owner of Ossum Wellness in Ancaster!
I grew up in Ancaster and played a variety of sports: basketball, volleyball, tennis, and a lot of golf.
I went to Western for Kinesiology and discovered Athletic Therapy in my 3rd year and knew it was for me! In my undergrad + post-grad in Athletic Therapy, I loved learning about anatomy, how the body moves and how to take care of it not only to rehabilitate injuries but also to prevent them.
10 years ago while I was working with the Hamilton Tiger Cats, I took the Fascial Stretch Therapy Course. This has forever changed the way I practice as I incorporate it on a daily basis with my clients. Mobility is a huge passion of mine and FST has been a great tool to compliment that. It’s a great way to kick start your mobility routine not only to prevent injury but also to continue moving and feeling your best for years to come!
Now that I have been operating Ossum Wellness for the last 4.5 years, I have connected with so many people + businesses that share my passion of an active, pain-free lifestyle! Everyone I work with is so motivated to feel their best and I am happy to provide my expertise to help my clients get there.
I have been an avid golfer (incase you haven’t seen my golf-focused page @ossumgolf) since I was 11 years old I have been lucky enough to treat a lot of golfers and help them get back onto the course after an injury.
That’s just a bit about me and why I love what I do!!
