When not working he usually can still be found playing hockey and spends many hours pursuing his passion of hunting and the great outdoors. Additionally both Corinne and Brad enjoy travel and their journeys have taken them to numerous continents and countries.

Corinne graduated from the University of Manitoba in 1997 with her Bachelor of Medical Rehabilitation - Physical Therapy, and has worked in private practice since this time. Corinne has a keen interest in sports/orthopaedics and enjoys providing those with complex injuries/ diagnosis with a comprehensive holistic rehab program which involves a compliment of treatments .

Travelling has been a passion for Corinne and husband Brad. This has taken them to many countries and continents around the world and they hope to continue on this passion now with their 2 children.

Being able to work and live in this community with their family and providing a state of the Art facility with the move in 2017, has been the culmination of Corinne and Brad’s dream.
