Richard earned his Honours Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with a Minor in Psychology from the University of Waterloo. Later, he achieved a Doctor of Physiotherapy degree from D’Youville University in New York. Subsequently, he pursued extensive post-graduate training in manual therapy, functional physiotherapy, and therapeutic taping.
With over two decades of clinical experience in rehabilitation settings in both the U.S. and Canada, Richard has cultivated a diverse career. As a physiotherapist, he has collaborated with professional athletes, coaches, government officials, and served in roles supporting both the Canadian and U.S. Armed Forces. Richard’s patients range from family physicians and surgeons to elite Team Canada athletes and members of the government. His expertise extends to various medical environments, including Medical Rehab Units (MRU), Intensive Care Units (ICU), Emergency Departments (ER), as well as in-patient and out-patient Orthopaedic Units. Leveraging his background as a kinesiologist, he has developed a unique kinesiology-driven mechanical physiotherapy approach that doesn’t rely on traditional exercises or passive rehab machines.
Richard employs an approach that integrates manual therapy, functional exercises, and patient education to achieve four key objectives: (1) addressing the root cause, (2) restoring function, (3) enhancing performance, and (4) averting future injuries. This distinctive, kinesiology-driven method ensures a personalized and goal-oriented physiotherapy experience.
