Ken has been a registered physiotherapist in Calgary for the past 10+ years. He completed his undergrad degree at the University of Lethbridge and Kansas University. For his physiotherapy degree, he went to the University of Western Ontario where he graduated with a Masters of Physical Therapy.

He has gone on to complete post-secondary training, including Graston and Functional Dry Needling (IMS). He has also completed his competency in Spinal Manipulative Therapy.

His activities and interests revolve around sports and activity. Prior to finishing post- secondary, he played Div I college baseball and subsequently was drafted by the Seattle Mariners of the MLB.

He still plays baseball in a league here in Calgary (FMBA) and will continue to do so until his arm falls off. He also plays golf as much as he can and plans to join the PGA tour in 2053.

He has treated children as young as 4 and adults as old as 93!
