Location: Queen & Dufferin -The Running Physio
Kevin graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology from the University of Waterloo before completing his Masters of Science in Physical Therapy from the University of Toronto.
After completing his degree, he spent the last 3 years living and practicing in Calgary, Alberta. It was in Alberta where Kevin's love for running began. Like a lot of people, he started running during Covid lockdowns due to lack of gym access. He also became very interested in hiking in the neighbouring Rocky Mountains. With the desire to push further into the mountains, he self-coached his way through a 100km ultramarathon, finishing in 17.5 hours as his first ever race. Now back home in Ontario, away from the mountains, he recently completed his first marathon in 3:18 and is looking to qualify for Boston at his next!
Kevin hasn?t always been into running. His primary activities of interest for the last 15 years have been strength training, powerlifting, and Olympic lifting. His degree in Kinesiology, experience as a personal trainer, and a decade and a half of personal experience give him an extensive background in strength and conditioning and functional exercise. He now combines these two passions, pursuing hybrid fitness goals in both weightlifting and running.
Kevin is certified in dry needling/acupuncture and has taken courses on Soft Tissue Release and manual therapy, using these techniques to help with pain and recovery from injury. He is also trained in advanced vestibular rehabilitation, assisting clients with a wide variety of dizziness and balance related conditions.
Additionally, Kevin helps runners pursue their goals not only through injury rehabilitation, but through Run Coaching as well. You can now book this with Kevin or reach out regarding any additional details.
