About C.T. Physiotherapy

Meet Caitlin. Caitlin Trakalo’s journey to becoming a physiotherapist started long before she started her Master’s of Physical Therapy degree at the University of Manitoba. In 2008, she was in a devastating quad accident in Corfu, Greece where she broke both of her ankles. The next 4 years involved 4 surgeries to both of her ankles, and extensive physiotherapy. Presently, there are still aches and pains that she has to live with, but she uses her education and positive attitude to ensure the best quality life is had!

Her experiences with being at the lowest low, and successfully overcoming all obstacles provides a very unique and special treatment approach. Outside of her physiotherapy practice, Caitlin enjoys travel, cooking, gardening, photography, skiing and snowboarding.

Meet Josh. Josh has been a Registered Physiotherapist for a little over a year and has a keen interest in Advanced Exercise Physiology as well as Exercise Prescription.

He grew up in Corner Brook, Newfoundland before completing an honours degree in kinesiology, and later moving to Scotland to complete his Master’s in physiotherapy. He loves to participate in all forms of sport and physical activity and enjoys getting his clients active and moving as well.

His passion for rural, digital, and accessible physiotherapy services comes from growing up in Newfoundland, a province known for its remote and isolated communities. Provision of services to these areas has always been an area of interest for him, and participating in Tele-rehab services during the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted a solution to this challenge.

Meet Jenna. Jenna was raised in the Northern Interlake in the small town of St. Martin. She attended high school right here in town at ACS graduating in 2005.

From a young age, Jenna knew she wanted to have a profession in healthcare. After seeing a physiotherapist for sports injuries in high school and then doing some soul searching in University, it became clear that physiotherapy was the profession she was looking for.

Jenna graduated from University of Manitoba with her Bachelor of Medical Rehabilitation in Physiotherapy in 2010. Since then she has worked in both public and private healthcare settings and has gained a lot of valuable experience from both. Jenna holds the strong belief that you should always continue to learn and therefore has taken various courses over the years.

In 2018 Jenna realized her strong passion for pelvic floor rehabilitation and since then has completed levels 1, 2 and 3 with Pelvic Health Solutions. She is particularly passionate about pre and postnatal care and considers herself a “birth junkie”. Most recently she has completed a Labour and Delivery course to further her knowledge in pre and postnatal care as well as the option to attend births for support.

Jenna deeply values the importance of truly listening to her patients and their goals and giving them the education and methods to become independent. You can often hear her saying “I am your guide”. Other favourite quotes of hers include “motion is lotion for your joints”, “your best posture is your next posture” and “all or something”.
