Emilie Haynes, Physiotherapist, Owner Fullmoon Physiotherapy

Emilie Haynes, BA, MPT, Registered Physiotherapist

Emilie loves working with clients in all areas of pelvic health and has a special interest in prenatal physio, post-caesarean rehab and guiding clients through their return to exercise postpartum. Her treatment approach uses a combination of manual therapy, soft tissue work, exercise therapy and education to help her clients achieve their best outcomes. Emilie treats you as a whole person, not just a pelvis - she wants to hear your story and work with you to help you reach your individual goals!

Since becoming a new mom, Emilie has been working on her own pelvic health and recovering from her c-section. She looks forward to bringing new empathy and awareness to her practice as she transitions back to work.

Emilie studied her Masters of Physical Therapy at UBC in Vancouver. Prior to becoming a physiotherapist, she completed her Bachelor of Arts in Hispanic Studies at the University of Victoria in 2017 (¿Hablas Español? Yo tambien), worked as a whale watching naturalist and captain, and ran a personal training business specializing in - you guessed it - prenatal/postpartum fitness. She was inspired to pursue pelvic floor physiotherapy as a career after realizing how many of her training clients dealt with common postpartum concerns such as incontinence and prolapse without knowing these conditions are treatable. Emilie’s mission is to shine a light on the pelvic floor so that we can talk about these concerns openly and normalize the treatment, not the problem.

On her days off you can find Emilie walking or biking with her dogs on the Cumberland trails, swimming at Kye Bay or at home on the couch watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer re-runs.
