Over the past five years, she has pursued **advanced training** through the _Barral_, _Upledger_, and _Chikly_ Institutes, among others. Susannah’s treatment approach integrates **gentle, hands-on techniques** with [dry needling](https://ateasephysio.ca/services/dry-needling), [visceral manipulation](https://ateasephysio.ca/services/visceral-manipulation), and movement practice to help the brain change how patients move through their world. As someone who grew up with _multiple sports injuries_, concussions, and digestive issues, she continues to learn all she can about the body. Susannah loves **empowering people** and teaching them about their bodies as much as she enjoys learning. ## Treatment Approach Traditional Physiotherapy addresses muscles, ligaments, joints, and bones very well. However, it leaves much on the table regarding the body’s nerves, blood vessels, [lymphatic systems](https://ateasephysio.ca/services/lymphatic-drainage), and organ systems—all **key to our survival** and often what our muscles are trying to protect. This approach taps into the **innate intelligence** of the nervous system to self-correct and heal. > “Treating only the top layer of the issue will result in it resurfacing sooner or later. Assessing and treating these deeper systems of our bodies gives better, longer-lasting results.” ## Qualifications & training ### Education - Masters of Physiotherapy Practice (2018) – La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia - Bachelor of Kinesiology (2014) – University of British Columbia, Vancouver - Diploma in Human Kinetics (2012) – Capilano University, North Vancouver **Certifications** - [Dry Needling Certificate (2021) (opens in a new tab)](https://www.acupuncturecanada.org/) - [Acupuncture Canada Level 1 Designation (2024) (opens in a new tab)](https://www.acupuncturecanada.org/) - [KT Taping (2014) (opens in a new tab)](https://kinesiotaping.com/) - [Pelvic Health Training (2021) (opens in a new tab)](https://pelvichealthsolutions.ca/) - Advanced Vestibular Rehabilitation (2019) - Trauma Informed Care (2021) - [Integrated Systems Model Mentorship (2021) and Certification (2022) (opens in a new tab)](https://learnwithdianelee.com/) - [Clinical Pilates Mat and Equipment Training (2020) (opens in a new tab)](https://appihealthgroup.com/) **Barral Institute** [Barral Institute — provider website (opens in a new tab)](https://www.barralinstitute.com/courses) - Visceral Manipulation Levels 1-6 (Qualified Teaching Assistant for Levels 1 & 2) - Listening Techniques Levels 1 & 2 - Neural Manipulation Levels 1-5 (Teaching Assistant for Level 1) - Visceral Vascular Manipulation – Upper and Lower Body - Visceral Manipulation Advanced Thorax - Manual Articular Spine/Pelvis and Lower Extremity - Strategic Crossroads Level 1 - Physiological and Neuroendocrine Effects of Soft Tissue Treatment - Clinical Applications for Disc Disorders - Clinical Applications in Concussion Recovery - Manual Approach to the Brain Levels 1 & 2 - Polyvagal Manual Therapy Levels 1 & 2 **Upledger Institute** [Upledger Institute — provider website (opens in a new tab)](https://www.upledger.com/courses) - CranioSacral Therapy Levels 1 & 2 - [Touching The Brain: Stimulating Self-Correction Through the Glial Interface (opens in a new tab)](https://shop.iahe.com/Workshops/CST-Touching-The-Brain-Stimulating-Self-Correction-Through-the-Glial-Interface) **Other Advanced Training** - [Lymphatic Drainage Therapy Levels 1 & 2 (opens in a new tab)](https://chiklyinstitute.com/) - [Chikly Brain Levels 1 & 2 (opens in a new tab)](https://chiklyinstitute.com/Brain) - [Pelvic Health Solutions Levels 1, 2 & 3 (opens in a new tab)](https://pelvichealthsolutions.ca/) - [Postpartum Rehabilitation (opens in a new tab)](https://hermanwallace.com/) - [Visceral Dissection (2022) (opens in a new tab)](https://www.gilhedley.com/) - [Biodynamic Fascial Integration Series (opens in a new tab)](https://bodhitreeteaching.ca/bfi-program/) - [Biodynamic and Biomechanical Osteopathic Manual Therapeutic Techniques Program (BOMT™) (opens in a new tab)](https://threebodiesinstitute.com/fullbomt) - [Z Health – Brain Training (opens in a new tab)](https://zhealtheducation.com/) - [Next Level Neuro – 1 Year Mentorship in Applied Neurology (opens in a new tab)](https://www.nextlevelneuro.com/) - [Pediatrics and the Growth Forces of the Skull (opens in a new tab)](https://shop.iahe.com/Workshops/Applications-for-Pediatrics) ## Outside the clinic When not treating patients: Olympic weightlifting, Walking, Skiing, Pilates, Salsa dancing, Yoga [Previous Bilbo & Hannah Clinic Comfort Dog](https://ateasephysio.ca/team/bilbo-hannah) [All Team](https://ateasephysio.ca/team#team) [Next Megan Davis Physiotherapist](https://ateasephysio.ca/team/megan-davis)
