Pamela Parker joined the Victoria Sports Physiotherapy team in October 2020, bringing over 10 years of private practice musculoskeletal and sport rehabilitation experience. She has almost 20 years of experience treating MSK conditions, working with adolescents and adults with return to sport or return to occupation goals. Specifically, Pamela has completed additional training in assessing and managing injuries associated with running.
Pamela completed a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with Distinction from the University of Alberta in 2005 while competing on the University of Alberta Varsity Volleyball Team. Pamela experienced the benefits of physical therapy as an elite athlete, having competed at the provincial, national and international levels of volleyball. Her love of human movement and performance led her to pursue a Masters of Physical Therapy from the University of Alberta, that she completed in 2007, while also working with the Pandas Volleyball Program as a team trainer.
Since initiating her physiotherapy practice in 2008, Pamela spent 10 years focused on assisting injured workers in their recovery. More recently, she has really enjoyed tapping into her own experiences to treat young athletes recover from injury and work towards strong, injury free seasons of play. She is in her element working in the gym, developing individualized exercise therapy programs for her clients. Utilizing the same principles learned working with high-performance athletes, Pamela approaches all sessions as an opportunity to coach individuals to restore their function, return to activities and ultimately, return to life.
