A lifelong athlete, and after having suffered several injuries herself, Valérie decided to undertake the Bac-Master's degree in Physiotherapy at Laval University, which she completed in 2017. Valérie knew from high school that she wanted to both become a physiotherapist and have her own clinic. In order to achieve these two dreams, she therefore aligned her choices at a very young age to stick to the field of physiotherapy and fuel her passion for the profession.

She worked as a receptionist in several private clinics and then continued her apprenticeships as a medical student. She was involved as a trainer with several sports events and teams, including ÉTS men's university rugby for three years and a half IRONMAN in Mont-Tremblant. She has treated athletes in several other sports including soccer, handball, basketball, soccer, dragon boat, hockey, and gymnastics.

She herself played handball for over 12 years and now focuses on yoga, hiking when she is not doing all sorts of activities with her two young children. Since her beginnings as a physiotherapist, Valérie has aimed to improve her knowledge through several training courses including manual therapy, concussion treatment, cranial and vestibular treatment. This therapist will know how to accompany you and team up with you in your rehabilitation with her energy, a contagious laugh and a lot of empathy.

As a founding member of the Clinique Dimensions Santé cooperative, she succeeded in creating, with her partners, a clinic that more than ever meets her human vision of physiotherapy care with all the rigor and expertise that this requires. She will know how to invest in your goals while keeping in mind her guiding principle: to help people's well-being in a caring manner and to help you regain your full potential.
