Meet TJ – Our Unregistered Physiotherapy Assistant 🐶

At Physio Theory, we believe in a well-rounded approach to rehabilitation—and that includes the unconditional support of our in-house (unofficial) assistant, TJ!

TJ is a highly experienced (self-proclaimed) Unregistered Physiotherapy Assistant, specializing in patient morale, stress reduction, and demanding belly rubs on an as-needed basis. While she may not have formal credentials, she makes up for it with an impeccable ability to nap strategically close by while keeping a watchful eye on all clinic operations.

TJ’s Specialties Include:

✔ Providing emotional support during treatment sessions 🐾 ✔ Supervising assessments from her favorite spot on the floor 💤 ✔ Politely requesting scratches at clinically appropriate intervals ✋ ✔ Acting as a four-legged welcoming committee for all visitors 🐕

Although she hasn’t quite mastered manual therapy (opposable thumbs remain a challenge), TJ excels at creating a calm, friendly atmosphere that helps clients feel at ease. She takes her role very seriously—when she’s not dozing off mid-shift, of course.

So, if you stop by Physio Theory, don’t be surprised if TJ greets you with a tail wag and promptly settles in for a well-earned rest near your session. Just know that scratches are encouraged, and treats are always appreciated. 🦴
