Micaela is trained in Functional Sports Medicine by Dr. Ara Suppiah and is now offering this service to clients in the form of health coaching. This is NOT within the scope of physiotherapy and should not be confused with any physiotherapy recommendations.

During Functional Sports Medicine Health Coaching, Micaela takes a deep dive into your history, injuries, symptoms lifestyle and goals. She combines this information with diagnostic tests to gain a deeper understanding of your physiology and together you create a plan to get to the bottom of your health, fitness and sport performance concerns and goals. Intervention always includes a combination of strategies uniquely selected for you and your goals. Micaela is able to use this training and this service to continue to empower female athletes in their health, fitness and sport performance.

Micaela is a registered physiotherapist with a Masters of Advanced Health Care Practice in Sport and Exercise Medicine. She is Contemporary Medical Acupuncture Provider, Neurofunctional Sports Performance Practitioner and holds her Diploma of Sport Physiotherapy with Sport Physiotherapy Canada. She is the founder of Instil Physio and creator of She Moves. Her practice focuses on empowering and supporting females in their health, fitness and sport through education and physiotherapy. Micaela blends her education and training of sports medicine, pelvic health, neurofunctional acupuncture, exercise and female athlete health to create a comprehensive foundation of care for all athletes she works with.

She obtained her B.Sc. in Human Kinetics from the University of Ottawa and went on to complete her M.Sc. in Physical Therapy from the University of Toronto. She has continued with her pursuit of excellence in education and practice throughout her career. She is an Instructor with the McMaster Contemporary Medical Acupuncture program and has taken several other courses such as the Advanced Sports Performance Practitioner Certification, Meridian Dissection course, Advanced Needling and soft tissue techniques for the elite athlete, and the Functional Sports Medicine Masterclass.

Most of Micaela’s career has been dedicated to supporting the female athlete at all stages of life. Her passion to provide better information and care for female athletes has led her to develop She Moves, a series of programs to empower girls and women to stay in sport and active for life.

Micaela’s love of working with female athletes comes from her own history in sport. Her parents were both athletes and she cannot imagine her life without playing sports. One of her most memorable accomplishments was competing at the Mounted Games World Championships for equestrian sport as a member of Team Canada. She also loves to play court and beach volleyball, and enjoys running, working out, practicing yoga and walking her dog. Travel is her favourite way to spend free time and it usually includes a multi-day hike through mountain ranges, volcanoes or tropical rainforests with her partner, David and their daughter Finnley.
