ABOUT

Micheal D'Alessandro
REGISTERED PHYSIOTHERAPIST
Micheal’s approach emphasizes education, exercise, and treatment plans that are tailored to each individual. He works with a wide range of clients, including those with orthopedic and sports injuries, concussion and vestibular conditions, and neurological concerns such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, and spinal cord injury. He also supports individuals with complex orthopedic and neurological presentations.
Micheal practices within the comprehensive biopsychosocial model, meaning care is not limited to physical symptoms. Factors such as stress, anxiety, sleep, nutrition, and overall mental health are also considered. His priority is helping you return to the activities you care about safely, confidently, and as quickly as possible.
EXPERIENCE & EDUCATION
Micheal is a Registered Physiotherapist with extensive and diverse clinical experience.
His journey began in 2014 as a Personal Trainer and Varsity Athletic Trainer at Ontario Tech University, where he supported elite varsity athletes through strength and conditioning, field-side care, and injury rehabilitation.
After completing his undergraduate degree, Micheal worked as a Kinesiologist providing one-on-one training and rehabilitation. His clients ranged from professional and semi-professional athletes focused on performance and injury prevention to members of the general population seeking improved health, fitness, or recovery from musculoskeletal injuries.
In 2020, Micheal completed his Master of Science in Physiotherapy at the University of Brighton in England. Since then, he has continued to broaden his scope, building expertise in neurological rehabilitation, concussion management, and vestibular assessment and treatment.
OUTSIDE THE CLINIC
Micheal loves spending time outdoors with his family. He enjoys camping, paddling, and spending time outdoors. Fitness remains an important part of his life, and he practices what he teaches, aiming for daily movement and exercise (often with his daughters “helping” beside him in the gym).
He has a strong interest in longevity, performance, and nutrition, and enjoys exploring evidence-based ways to balance optimal health strategies with real, everyday life. Micheal believes health is a lifelong pursuit, not just recovery from injury.
