Hi, my name is Kaitlyn and I am one of the physiotherapists at South Island Physiotherapy.

Too often during my sessions people share with me that activity avoidance is recommended by their medical professionals to avoid pain or symptoms. This may be temporarily effective but it is my experience that life is too short to compromise on what you enjoy. I believe there is always to get back to creating a happy and fulfilling life.

My job is to help you bridge the gap between what you can do now and what you want to be doing. With careful testing, planning, tolerance building, retesting and a bit of patience and persistence we can work to return to your preferred activities. Your job is to come with a goal, ask questions and put in some work!

One of my main professional interests is the female athlete through her lifespan. I have taken post-graduate courses in pelvic health including incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic pain conditions and pregnancy and postpartum exercise focused on fitness athletes. I have also taken courses in spinal manipulation, functional dry needling and pain science. I like to do Crossfit and weightlifting in my spare time and incorporate these principles into my practice which means that active rehabilitation is a big part of my treatments.

So whether you are struggling with shoulder pain during snatches, peeing with skipping, wanting to learn how to brace appropriately for weightlifting, or have questions about what you can do for an active and safe pregnancy and postpartum, I am here to help you!

Emily was very friendly, welcoming, and caring . She took the time to listen to my issues and asked the appropriate questions to help her understand how she could best be of help to my needs. Emily physically showed me what exercises to work on to help me with my injury . I felt like I had known Emily for a long time. She was very thorough and a great listener. I would highly recommend Emily .

Highly recommend Emily Ervine! I saw her for an arm issue related to golf and had a great experience. She did a very thorough assessment, used IMS/dry needling, and gave me specific exercises tailored to my situation. I noticed a significant improvement right away. Emily is an excellent communicator and her golf/sports background was a huge plus — she immediately understood how my injury related to my swing and what I was trying to get back to. The whole treatment plan felt very personalized and practical. One of the best physio experiences I’ve had.

Chris V. was an amazing therapist and understood the complex problems I have had. His consultation and initial treatment was so helpful and confirmed the issue I had.
