Meet Olivia!

Olivia was born and raised just outside of Fredericton. Throughout her high school years, she always had a passion for sports and athletics. After graduating in 2020, she made the decision to pursue a career as a massage therapist. She proceeded to complete a 2-year program and graduated as class Valedictorian from the Atlantic College of Therapeutic Massage in 2023.

Olivia firmly believes that every client should be treated as an individual case. She prides herself on using science and evidence-based treatment planning. She works diligently to empower and educate her clients so that they live optimal lifestyles and take their health into their own hands. Olivia has experience treating chronic pain, acute injury, as well as neurological and joint conditions.

Throughout the winter of 2022, Olivia took her passion to the next level and completed courses through the International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA) and became a Certified Personal Trainer. This has allowed her to grow an even stronger base in providing remedial exercise to those she treats in a clinical setting as a massage therapist. She enjoys working with athletes and and looks forward to broadening her clientele even further. Olivia is very excited to be a member of the multi-disciplinary team at Max Health.

In her spare time, you’ll most likely find Olivia in the gym. Whether it be weightlifting, working with one-on-one clients, or leading HIIT classes at Full Body Fitness – the gym is where she finds her joy. She loves indulging in sports research and is always up for a new challenge. Olivia enjoys spending time with her two horses and exploring the outdoors with her family and friends.

Meet Jacky!

Jacky was born and raised here in New Brunswick where she spent most of her time in the dance studio, focusing on classical ballet. She continued nurturing that passion for the last 15 years, teaching dance to all ages which.

She graduated as Valedictorian from the Atlantic College of Therapeutic Massage in 2022.

During her time at school, Jacky had the opportunity to work with UNB Reds athletes and general public. She also jumped at the chance to volunteer as a student massage therapist at the Fredericton Marathons and the East Coast Music Awards (ECMA).

In addition to relaxation and Swedish massage, Jacky is trained in sports massage, myofascial release and hot stone massage.  She is hoping to soon add cupping and taping to her massage therapy repertoire. 

Jacky has always had a passion and love for helping people. She believes every client is individual and their treatment should be tailored to suit their individual needs. 

In her spare time, Jacky enjoys getting outside, hiking, playing, and watching the sunsets with her two kids.

Anna Petrie, Physiotherapist

Anna Petrie

Physiotherapist

Clinic – Currie Center (UNB)

fredericton-physiotherapists
Meet Anna!

Anna is an exercise enthusiast, an academic, worldwide traveler, and a leader with a resilient mindset. Her defining quality is her persistent hard work which has defined the achievements that she has accomplished to date.

Born and raised in Fredericton, Anna graduated top of her class in the Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology program from the University of New Brunswick in 2018. After graduation Anna worked as the lead research coordinator for the Cardiometabolic Exercise and Lifestyle Laboratory (CELLab) at UNB to implement an older adult fall prevention exercise program in New Brunswick. The following year she returned to Australia, where she had previously completed a UNB Study Abroad term in 2017 in Melbourne, to work as a personal trainer in three different gyms.

During Anna’s travels, her passion to collaboratively help individuals live a healthy and active lifestyle became clear, so she decided to further her education and study to become a physiotherapist. She completed her Master of Science in Physiotherapy from Dalhousie University in 2022, again graduating top of her class.

Anna strongly believes in empowering her clients to take ownership of their health and fitness. She works with clients to create an individualized plan to achieve their goals and to prevent illness, disease, and/or disability. For clients who are currently experiencing acute or chronic conditions, Anna is passionate about working with them to create a proper rehabilitation plan.

Anna has extensive experience working with the aging population through her previous employment, volunteerism, and physio placements, and absolutely loves to work with individuals to help combat the challenges that often present with aging. She is a firm believer that one’s age does not define their functional ability and that many of the risk factors for chronic conditions are, in fact, modifiable.

Outside of the clinic, you can guarantee Anna is exercising — whether in the gym lifting weights, running outside, or attending yoga and Pilates classes with her friends. Anna is a huge animal lover and loves travelling the world with family and friends.

Anna has recently embarked on a legal education at UNB Law to further her professional development, but remains fully committed to her clients on a part-time basis.

fredericton-massage-therapists
Meet Emily!

Emily was born and raised in Fredericton and is passionate about providing quality massage therapy services to her community. She graduated in 2013 from St. Thomas University with a double major in Psychology and Criminology. Having grown-up active in sports, Emily developed a strong interest in health and fitness throughout her time at STU.

For two years following her graduation, she worked in the field of Psychology, and enjoyed the fast pace, challenging, and rewarding nature of the job. During this time, Emily personally benefitted from receiving massage therapy treatments. Because of this, and along with her love of helping others, she decided to pursue a career as a Registered Massage Therapist, graduating as Valedictorian from the Atlantic College of Therapeutic Massage in 2017.

During her massage studies, Emily took additional courses including sports massage and soft tissue release. She has since expanded her therapies to include cupping therapy, kin taping, and concussion management, and is always exploring ways to advance her skillset as a massage therapist. Emily has experience treating both chronic and acute conditions, and tailors each treatment to the needs of the individual.  This includes any combination of Swedish massage, myofascial release, therapeutic cupping, active myofascial release, passive stretching, and exercise prescription.

In her spare time, Emily enjoys weight training, hiking, walking with her dog (Rupert), reading, visiting local breweries, and spending time with her boyfriend, family, and friends.

Anterior Levator Ani

Anterior Levator Ani

Levator Ani Blog

Do you have…

…bladder infection symptoms, but the urinalysis comes back reporting there is no infection?

…a constant need to pee?

…pain around the ovaries?

…lower abdominal cramping?

…pain with sex, especially with deeper penetration?

All of these symptoms can all be caused by one condition; a trigger point in the anterior levator ani pelvic floor muscles. The pelvic floor can be tricky to diagnose as the issue because it often causes pain outside of the vagina. Trigger points in the pelvic floor can refer to the bladder, lower abdomen, hips, and low back. With the exception of pain with sex, the pelvic floor does not often cause vaginal pain.

A sensation of pain coming from the bladder or ovaries can be alarming, especially since we can’t see the area to determine the severity of the injury or problem. Many of our patients at the Max Health Prospect Street Clinic have undergone ultrasounds, and other medical tests and procedures only to be told that everything looks fine, but the patient does not feel fine.

If you experience one or all five of the symptoms above, consider having your pelvic floor muscles assessed by a physiotherapist with focused training in the pelvic floor. As part of the assessment, with your consent, the physiotherapist will insert a gloved finger vaginally for an internal exam.

The pelvic floor physiotherapist will apply light pressure to each of the muscles in your pelvic floor. It is easy for you and your physiotherapist to determine whether the pelvic floor is causing your pain. As the physiotherapist applies pressure to the anterior levator ani muscles, it will reproduce (or turn on) the symptoms you are experiencing. When the pressure is released from the anterior levator ani muscles, the symptoms will diminish (or turn off.) If your pain can be reproduced during the exam, it most often can be fixed.  With education and exercises that can perform at home, many patients see complete resolution of their symptoms.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy is a conservative form of care with little to no side effects or risks. Generally, there are no wait times to get a physiotherapy appointment. You do not need a referral to book an appointment; however, your private insurance may require in order to submit your claim. In most cases, Max Health is able to direct bill private insurance companies (i.e. Blue Cross, Canada Life, SunLife, Johnson’s). We recommend checking the details of your policy prior to booking your assessment.

For more information, or to book an appointment, please call our Administrative Team at 506-451-6837 ext 2 or e-mail info2@maxhealthfred.ca
