  Terri Robicheau
  Pelvic Health

  Speaks: English

  Terri graduated with a Master of Science in Physiotherapy from Dalhousie University in 2011 and began her career in orthopaedic private practice, supporting clients with a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.

  She later developed a focused interest in pelvic health physiotherapy and has completed extensive postgraduate training in urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, perinatal care, and cesarean preparation and recovery. Her approach supports bladder, bowel, pelvic pain, and core concerns by addressing how the pelvic floor functions within the whole body, emphasizing movement, practical strategies, and confidence in daily life.

  Terri also provides physiotherapy care with a focused interest in infant feeding and oral-motor development. Since 2021, she has pursued advanced training in infant oral-motor function, as well as parental and infant factors that can influence feeding. Her work bridges pelvic health and infant feeding, allowing for a thoughtful and integrated approach to care.

  She offers individualized, one-on-one physiotherapy treatment and is passionate about helping clients feel informed, empowered, and confident in how their bodies function, through periods of change and beyond.

  Outside the clinic, Terri enjoys life with her husband and their three growing boys, spending time outdoors, cooking, and embracing the joyful noise of a busy household.

  Kaitlin Stanley
  Osteopath

  Speaks: English, French

  Kaitlin is a graduate from the five-year manual osteopathic program at the Collège d'Études Ostéopathiques (2022) and from the University of Regina's Human Kinetics Kinesiology program (2017). With over 8 years of experience working in a clinical setting, she is thrilled to be providing osteopathic care to the people of Fall River and surrounding communities.

  Osteopathy is a holistic manual therapy that focuses on helping facilitate balance throughout all body systems and structures by finding and treating the root causes of dysfunctions. Kaitlin treats the body as a functional unit that comprises many parts that all need to function cohesively in order to optimize health and wellbeing. A thorough understanding of anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics is essential in treating the entirety of a person.

  Through her individualized treatments, Kaitlin will perform myofascial and soft tissue techniques, gentle joint mobilizations, cranial sacral techniques, osteo-articular adjustments, muscle energy techniques, fluidic work, and fascial visceral manipulation.

  Kaitlin is committed to ongoing continuing education opportunities and has a special interest in treating pre and post-partum women and babies, after having recently become a new mother herself. 

  In her spare time, you can find Kaitlin enjoying the great outdoors with her golden retriever, Lennon, & visiting local hot spots in Dartmouth, where she lives with her husband, Nick, and son, Oliver.
