Pure Physiotherapy was founded in 2013 by Joanna Nelken who aimed to create a superior clinic experience for her clients built on her passion for helping others and coupled with her advanced physiotherapy training. She is a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapists (FCAMPT), which is an internationally- recognized qualification that is the highest level of advanced training a physiotherapist can achieve in orthopaedic knowledge, manual therapy techniques and clinical reasoning. A very small percentage (<5%) of physiotherapists in Canada possess the FCAMPT credentials.
