Nicole Dolinar,

Registered Physiotherapist
MSc. P.T., BSc. (Hons) H.K.

Nicole is determined to ensure each client gets quality care that is the right fit for them! Acknowledging that everyone has different goals and barriers impacting their ability to achieve those goals, Nicole thrives to tailor each treatment to best help her clients succeed. As an experienced physiotherapist, she understands that communication is the key to success. She takes the time to help her clients fully understand what is happening to them and how their rehab plan will help them get back into the driver’s seat.

Nicole grew up in southern Ontario, but never felt at home in a big city. With a few stops and adventures along the way, Nicole and her family made it out to the East Kootenays, a place they are happy to call home. What’s not to love when you have a strong, kind community surrounding you and nature’s playground in your backyard!

Testimonials:

"Nicole is truly a wonderful physio. She’s attentive, easy to talk to, and oh so kind. During my assessments and treatments with her, she always takes the time to educate me on my injuries, but more importantly, provides me with info about what I can be doing to help treat myself. She has a fantastic ability to show how knowledgeable and confident she is, all while being incredibly humble and down to earth. I have never felt more comfortable with a healthcare provider as I am when I’m with Nicole. I recommend her to everyone who needs physio!"

"When I severely sprained both my ankles I started treatment with Nicole. She was pleasant to work with, was tough when needed, and her techniques improved my injuries to a functional level. Nicole is really far beyond any other therapist I have seen and I selfishly wish she never left Ontario!"
- Lara M.

"I had the pleasure of being treated by Nicole when I hurt my back. She was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. She took time to properly assess the issue and got me back to feeling great in no time. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great physiotherapist!!"
