Jordan’s interest in the neurological population began when he started as a Physiotherapy Volunteer at Neurocore. He quickly realized he had a natural affinity for working with individuals who sustained a neurological or orthopaedic condition, which motivated him to pursue a career in Physiotherapy.
Jordan is a seasoned athlete who has competed in soccer and track and field at the provincial level. He is also currently training as a Triathlete. Jordan competed in several Half Ironman Triathlons and aspires to compete in a Full Ironman Triathlon in the future.
Jordan’s love for sport undoubtedly pushes him to become a better therapist. Not only does he have a refined sense of movement and motor control, but Jordan also has firsthand experience with the impact of injuries on day-to-day activities. Through rehabilitation of his own injuries, Jordan has a richer perspective of what client’s face in their road to recovery.
