Matthew Crawford

Physiothérapeute agréé

Growing up in the athletics scene of Medicine Hat, Alberta, Matt gained firsthand experience with the training, technique, and performance requirements involved with multiple sports. His background includes swimming for Team Alberta, competing in provincial-level volleyball, coaching and playing youth lacrosse, rowing for the Queen’s novice team, and finishing his athletic career on the Queen’s Varsity Waterpolo team. This experience in a range of sports combined with his education in physical therapy have given Matt an invaluable understanding of the physical demands required of modern athletes, the common injuries which they incur, and how to manage the return to sport process.

Matt found his love of anatomy early on in his academic career. After spending time in the Queen’s Anatomy Lab as a teacher’s assistant, his passion for teaching his patients about their own bodies stands out with the use of 3D anatomy software. Matt’s approach to physiotherapy involves coaching, teamwork, and collaboration with his patients. People who have worked with Matt leave with an understanding of fundamental movement control, the knowledge of how to continue building physical resiliency, and an awareness of their own anatomy which they can carry with them for the rest of their lives.
