Andrea is an Ottawa native who grew up playing competitive ringette from a young age. In her free time she enjoys cycling, resistance training and being outdoors.

I have had the pleasure of working with Back On Track since 2013, I have since experienced working with a group of highly skilled professionals in health rehabilitation.

I earned my Bachelor of Health Science degree from Western University and earned early acceptance to the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College, and graduated in 2008. I initially began my career in private practice in British Colombia and eventually moved back home.

Since beginning my professional role with Back On Track I have pursued further study in Concussion Management and Vestibular Rehabilitation. I continue to pursue continuing education to further my clinical abilities.

Recently, as well as providing private service, I have been working with the Interprofessional Spinal Assessment and Education Clinics as an Advanced Practice Clinician for the Kemptville area. Through this training at the Ottawa Hospital and the ISAEC team, I have further advanced diagnosis and management strategies.

You should expect that an initial visit with a chiropractor should include a full history of symptoms and orthopaedic examination as well as a clear and concise diagnosis. A plan of management will then be determined and agreed upon, with an emphasis on evidenced based care.

Andrea graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Human Kinetics from St. Francis Xavier University in 2015 and received a Masters of Physical Therapy from the University of British Columbia. During her Master’s degree, Andrea completed practicums in a variety of private clinics as well as in orthopaedic and neurology hospital wards across northern British Columbia.

Her treatment approach is based on therapeutic exercise, education, and manual therapy techniques. Andrea also aims to always further her learning through continuingeducation courses. In the future, she plans on taking courses in dry needling and advanced manual therapy techniques. In her spare time, she enjoys playing hockey, hiking, and skiing. Andrea is always eager to work with new clients from a variety of backgrounds and injuries!

Kimberlee began her Massage Therapy journey over 20 years ago after a motor vehicle accident. Her active pursuit in self-care helped her to recognize the need for a gentle, yet effective approach to rehabilitative care in the hands of an RMT. Leaving the corporate business world behind, she pursued education in the Massage Therapy field, attended Kawartha Center for Health Education, Sir Sandford Fleming College, and Sault College of Applied Arts & Technology, graduating with Honors. She has been a Registered Massage Therapist since 2003.

In the pursuit of a focused rehabilitative Massage Therapy practice, Kimberlee has had the privilege of building multiple clinics that worked in multidisciplinary settings that specialize in specific injuries, mental health support, and chronic disease management.

Starting out in general practice, she quickly found herself gravitating to working in multiple fields, such as prenatal & infant therapy, amputations & joint replacements, shoulder / hand & upper limb extensive rehabilitation, sports injuries & professional athletic improvement, Breast cancer / mastectomy, sexual abuse / PTSD (positive touch program), and motor vehicle accident third party assessments.

Avidly pursuing every opportunity to work with the Health Team members of her community, Kimberlee believes that along with the active participation of each individual in our care program, we can establish a positive outcome-based program for our clients.

When you come to see Kimberlee, she walks you through your health history and assessment for Massage Therapy. As a team, you will discuss your goals and work together to create a program of care that is individual and mindful of your personal comfort and limitations. She engages in a respectful and charismatic manner that will always place your safety first and with complete informed consent.

Originally from Timmins, Ontario, Jordan made her way to Ottawa in 2017 to attend Algonquin College to pursue her interest in Massage Therapy. While obtaining her advanced diploma, she also received a much deeper understanding of the human body than she could ever anticipate. Jordan fell in love with the profession and the heartwarming feeling of knowing she will make a difference in others’ lives. While being a student, she realized that she enjoyed working with connective tissue, more specifically, scar tissue. For her, one of the most rewarding moments is seeing a client regain their range of motion within just a few treatments!

Prior to starting her career with Back On Track, Jordan worked as an RMT at the internationally recognized Post Hotel located in Lake Louise, Alberta. The Post Hotel is one of Canadas five-star hotels and has also been voted the #1 resort in the country. Here she provided various treatments such as Deep Tissue massage, Swedish massage, Aromatherapy, and Thai Stem massage.

Jordan is excited and looking forward to beginning her career with Back on Track, building connections with new clients and treating them with professional healing care!
