Shockwave Therapy in Vancouver

Jonathan Coelho

Jonathan is a physiotherapist specialized in the management of orthopedic conditions including sport, neck and back injuries. He graduated with distinction from the Master of Physical Therapy program at UBC in 2010.

He utilizes a multi-faceted approach designed to both alleviate an individual’s current pain as well as address the root cause of the issue. His goal is to have each patient feeling better, moving optimally, and better equipped to prevent future injuries.

His treatment approach includes hands-on spinal manual therapy, intramuscular stimulation (IMS / dry needling), postural re-education, lifestyle changes, massage and soft tissue mobilization, as well as designing a personalized exercise program that emphasizes corrective strengthening and progressive overload. Throughout the recovery process, a premium is placed on patient engagement and education.

As a self-proclaimed physionerd, Jonathan utilizes research reviews and continuing education courses to stay on top of the latest trends in musculoskeletal rehabilitation.

He believes that the physiotherapy management of musculoskeletal conditions, alongside a multi-disciplinary team, is crucial in allowing you to return to a healthy lifestyle and perform at your best.

Outside of the clinic you can find Jonathan spending time with his wife and two daughters, dabbling in pickleball, and trying to find the time to lift weights more often.
