Community Connections: Physio Extra

Giving students opportunities to learn first-hand from professionals is the core of our Community Connections. On Tuesday, March 9th, one of our Grade 12 students spent the day with our Community Connections partner, @physio.extra learning about the different forms of therapy. Emile shares his experience "Thanks to NSA, I had the chance to spend a day at Physio Extra to see what the job of a physiotherapist looks like. I was able to see several spheres of the clinic, meeting with some physiotherapists, occupational therapists and an acupuncturist. I was able to watch them treat their patients while I asked all of the questions I had after having been interested in the field for several years as a student athlete. I learned a lot about physiotherapy and had fun with the team at Physio Extra. They were really welcoming and enthusiastic and they love their job. I really enjoyed my time and I would definitely consider pursuing this career now in the future.”
