About Shayne

With an empathetic and caring personality, Shayne has always wanted to pursue a career helping others.

Shayne was born and raised in Nanaimo where he grew up participating in a variety of different sports. Shayne soon found a passion for hockey and began playing and officiating at a young age. With sports come injuries and it was through his personal experiences with injury rehab and attending physiotherapy that piqued his interest in pursuing physiotherapy as a career. Shayne believes in a patient-centered approach utilizing personalized treatment plans to help attain the client's rehabilitation goals.

Outside of physiotherapy Shayne enjoys spending time with his family and friends, and participating in sports such as hockey, golf, and cycling.


The importance of communication.

Shayne is deeply convinced that successful rehabilitation hinges on effective communication. Clients have profound insights into their own bodies, and Shayne prioritizes attentive listening to tailor his approach and meet the clients’ individual needs effectively.

Shayne consistently seeks new opportunities to broaden his knowledge and expertise, aiming to offer more treatment options for his clients. Shayne has an interest in treating musculoskeletal and orthopedic injuries, as well as Vestibular rehab including vertigo and dizziness.
