Our Team

Daniel Barnes, MScPT

Daniel completed his Physical Therapy Assistant degree in 2017 and worked with us prior to returning to school and receiving his Master’s of Science in Physical Therapy from the University of Alberta in 2022. He was drawn to private practice to enable him to work with patients from the acute injury stage to full recovery. His background in track and field has led him to take a full body approach with a detailed look at movement patterns in the hopes to provide clients with the tools they need to resolve their concerns. Daniel enjoys working with a broad spectrum of conditions and injuries and is able to modify and progress exercises catered to each individual during their recovery process.
