He went on to earn his Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy from The University of Toronto in 1998, where he won awards for academic excellence and professional collaborative skills. He is a member in good standing of the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario and is a member of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association and the Ontario Kinesiology Association.
Jordan’s post-graduate studies have included courses in many areas, including golf injuries and rehabilitation (Fitfore Golf program), advanced differential diagnosis of musculoskeletal pain, manual therapy and intramuscular stimulation (IMS). In 2004, Jordan passed the Advanced Manual and Manipulative Therapy exam, becoming a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Therapists (FCAMT). He also successfully passed parts 1 and 2 of the GunnIMS qualification in 2007, becoming a fully licensed practitioner of this technique. Jordan has been an instructor in the Canadian Physiotherapy Association’s Orthopaedic Division curriculum since 2004, and teaches many of the local physiotherapists intermediate levels of manual therapy theory and techniques within that framework.
He has strived to continue to expand his repertoire of treatment techniques in order to offer the most comprehensive treatment experience possible for his clients. He has integrated all of these areas of expertise with his particular interest in the science of neurodynamics and fascial mobilization as the evidence and theories behind each of those areas expands and becomes more robust.

 Leanne Damas, Yoga Instructor & Thai Massage Practitioner
Leanne has been teaching yoga classes to adults and children in Manotick, Greely, Riverside South and Kars since 2001. Her certifications include Yanumoja yoga, Radiant Child children’s yoga, and prenatal yoga. Leanne’s yoga classes are an eclectic mix of stimulating, regenerative yoga for body and soul. Each class incorporates a central theme based in yoga philosophy, and uses posture, breath, relaxation and meditation to create space for reflection and rejuvenation.
In 2007, Leanne trained in Thai yoga massage, a one-on-one form of therapy that derives from Thailand , with influences from Indian Ayurveda, yoga practices, and Chinese healing arts. Sometimes described as having yoga “done to you”, this gentle, flowing bodywork uses passive yoga postures and acupressure to promote flexibility, relaxation and healing.
Leanne continues to deepen in both of these areas of study, as they support her journey, and enable her to offer healing and wellness to others.
