Barb Hadath

Barb completed her Bachelor of Medical Rehabilitation in 1998 and has been busy ever since. Barb has sat as secretary treasurer for the Manitoba branch of the Sports Physiotherapy Division and is currently on the Orthopaedic Division Executive. Barb has successfully completed her Advanced Orthopaedic Exam. This exam examines one’s knowledge in the assessment and treatment of the spine and the extremities. This exam assesses one’s knowledge and skill in spinal manipulation. Spinal Manipulation is utilized to regain joint mobility and is often the first step in spinal care, followed by patient instruction in stabilization exercise and prevention. We do not believe in regular “adjustments” as part of general health care maintenance. It is our belief that the patient should be given resources, which they can use to reduce their own pain and not become dependant on long term repeated courses of manual therapy. She has continued to upgrade her knowledge and education by participating in courses provided by many world-class leaders in the field of physiotherapy. Barb also has her acupuncture accreditation from the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada. She is a novice bodybuilder. She is able to share her knowledge of health and fitness with many. Barb is an assistant for courses offered through the National Orthopaedic Division of Canada.
