If you’re an athlete, at any level, you’ll want to meet Brooke! Brooke Edwardson’s resume and skill with athletes is not only impressive, but it just keeps getting bigger and better.  Having graduated with a Masters of Physiotherapy from Western University, Brooke knew without question that she wanted to work with top athletes – and she wasted no time making her mark.
