Cole began his practice in Ontario after graduating with a bachelors of applied health science degree in Athletic Therapy. Working in a clinic throughout the day and spending his evenings working at a college treating the athletes. After a few years in the industry, Cole went back to school to get his diploma in massage therapy to expand his knowledge and the variety of patients he treats. Continuing to work in the small town that he grew up in, he wanted to travel to BC to explore what the west coast had to offer.

His passion is being able to help others get back to doing what they love as soon as possible. As a competitive athlete himself, he understands the frustrations of being pulled away from the thing you love and wanting to get back as quickly as possible. This passion drives his treatments that are individualized to achieve the patient’s goals based on the injury. Treatments involve a variety of manual techniques alongside exercise therapy where he focuses on correcting biomechanical faults in order to fix the problem and prevent the injury from re-occurring. He focuses on educating the patient during treatments to help them better understand their injury and how to help manage it at home.

When he’s not at the clinic, he can be found enjoying the outdoors by backpacking or kayak camping. He also enjoys all sports but specifically hockey, soccer, running, and snowboarding.

In 2010, Jonathan graduated with a five year Master program in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy, Specialized in Sports and Manual Therapy, at the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium. Barely graduated, he realized physiotherapy alone wasn’t satisfying his belief and capabilities to improve injuries, thus he decided to profound himself into the holistic approach of Osteopathy.

After spending three years specializing within the Osteopathic world, Jonathan now enjoys treating injuries in a holistic way. This means Jonathan will look beyond a local injury and search for other possible mechanisms throughout the body as cause of injury. Techniques used vary from manual therapy, soft tissue, trigger points, lymphatic system stimulation, arterial flow stimulation, fascia, visceral, and others.

Being fluent in French, Dutch, and English, Jonathan quickly made his way through different top sport competition as therapist combined with practice in private clinics surrounded by high level therapists and professors.

In 2012, he worked for the “F.B.R.B.”, Belgium National Rugby Team, followed by the Belgium National Judo Team in 2013. After this experience, he searched for another type of sport to learn from and found this as head physiotherapist for the Royal Beerschot Hockey Club, Men’s 1st division, in 2013-2014.

After working in Vancouver for six years, Jonathan decided to move to West Kelowna with his family to enjoy a different life style and pace.

Besides work and studies, Jonathan has always been very interested in playing sports such as rugby, soccer, tennis, running, kite surfing, dancing (University dance teacher 2009-2010), skiing and athletics.
