She takes a functional approach to care, using a variety of adjustive techniques, electro-acupuncture, soft tissue techniques and physical rehabilitation exercises within her treatments.
An accomplished contemporary dancer and ballerina, Dr. Patterson studied with the Professional Program of Contemporary Dance in Winnipeg, Manitoba and the Canadian Children’s Dance Theatre in Toronto, Ontario. She remains actively involved with dance and young dancers through her teaching endeavors and takes a keen interest in the treatment of dance-related injuries.
