Alexa Beehler

Alexa is a Registered Physiotherapist who graduated from the University of Ottawa with a Master of Health Science in Physical Therapy. Upon graduation, she was the recipient of the Orthopedic Excellence Award (by the Canadian Physiotherapy Association), awarded to the student deemed to be the highest ranked student based on a combination of the candidate’s demonstration of exceptional leadership, advocacy, and interest in orthopaedics. After pursuing her education in French, she prides on offering fully bilingual services to her patients. Prior to this, she completed a Bachelor's degree in Human Kinetics.

Alexa is passionate about bringing a fun approach to rehabilitation, tailored to specific individual needs with a smile and laughter. She is certified up to Level 3 for the Advanced Integrated Musculoskeletal (AIM) Physiotherapy Program in both Upper and Lower Quadrants, and has taken subsequent courses including Running and Exercise Principles, vestibular rehabilitation and dry needling programs. Her practice reflects the knowledge and skill gained through her extensive training, which includes manual therapy, exercise prescription, and acupuncture/dry needling techniques. She aims to continue learning up to date techniques through the orthopaedic level system to give her patients the best, most informed and evidence-based care needed to address the root problem and ensure long term results.

With past sporting experience in hockey, provincial rugby, soccer, and softball, Alexa knows first hand the challenges of overcoming multiple injuries and the role of physiotherapy, and early rehabilitation on getting you back faster to what you love best. Most importantly, she values treatment based on patient education, to guide you towards a life where you take control back on your own body.

When not working at our Barrhaven location, Alexa enjoys spending time with family and friends, playing outdoor games, playing music, camping, and strength training.
