Jenny Li

Bio:

I am a UK-trained physiotherapist with over two decades  of experience operating private practices in the UK and Canada.

Background

Originally from England, I have lived in Calgary since 2012.  From an early age, I had a keen interest in horse riding and competition.  An occupational hazard of this sport is that I suffered several injuries which is where my interest in injury management, fitness and physiotherapy began.  Initially I worked as a Sports Massage Therapist and later trained to be a Sports Therapist,(Athletic Therapist)  treating many professional/elite athletes and professional sports teams.  However, I craved in-depth knowledge to resolve more complex cases which led me to complete two degrees in Rehabilitation Science and Physiotherapy.  I still have an insatiable drive for finding solutions for complex conditions through research.  I pride myself in finding solutions for my patients however unusual their presentation is.  I am constantly upgrading my skills and post-grad qualifications.

Professional experience

In the UK I worked for the West Midlands Police (the second largest force in the UK) to set up its physiotherapy service to provide effective treatments for their officers/staff and support them in getting back to work quickly following injuries.  I have also consulted for numerous companies on occupational injuries and provided workshops for their staff to help reduce workplace injures. Here is a selection of professional teams, elite athletes, musicians and stage performers I have worked with:

  • Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra
