Emily Czechowskyj

Physiotherapist, BSc., MScPT, Pelvic Health

Emily is a musculoskeletal and pelvic floor physiotherapist who is passionate about helping people move better, feel stronger, and get back to doing the things they love. She completed her Master of Physical Therapy at Queen’s University and has built her practice around a hands-on, whole-body approach to treatment. She enjoys working with everything from sports injuries and persistent aches and pains to more complex pelvic health concerns.

Her treatment style combines deep tissue manual therapy, joint mobilizations, fascial release, and individualized lumbopelvic stability and strengthening exercises. She has a particular interest in chronic postural pain and long-standing or difficult-to-resolve injuries, looking beyond just the painful area to understand how the joints, muscles, fascia, core, and pelvic floor may all be contributing.

To further develop her expertise in sports and musculoskeletal physiotherapy, she completed additional sports therapy training in Australia. During her time there, she gained hands-on experience working with high-level athletes, including rugby players and Olympic track and field athletes. This experience helped shape her approach to rehabilitation, combining hands-on treatment with movement, strength, and stability work to help patients return to their activities with confidence.

Pelvic health is another major focus of her practice. She works with patients experiencing endometriosis, pelvic pain, urinary frequency, pelvic organ prolapse, and tailbone pain or injuries. She also provides rehabilitation before and after pelvic surgeries, as well as prenatal and postpartum physiotherapy.

She especially enjoys helping women navigate recovery after pregnancy and childbirth, including rehabilitation following third-degree tears, rectus diastasis, pelvic floor dysfunction, and changes in core and lumbopelvic stability. Her goal is to create a comfortable and supportive environment where patients can talk openly about concerns that can sometimes feel difficult or embarrassing to discuss.

In addition to treating patients, she is a pelvic floor instructor in Toronto, teaching other healthcare practitioners how to assess and treat pelvic floor conditions. She enjoys sharing the knowledge she has gained through years of clinical practice and helping other practitioners develop their confidence and skills in pelvic health physiotherapy.

When she isn’t in the clinic, you’ll usually find her staying active with beach volleyball or Pilates, or enjoying a long walk with her dogs.
