Penny Salmas

Registered Physical Therapist
Manual and Manipulative Physiotherapist
Penny has incorporated all the services and disciplines she feels are most beneficial to the full recovery of most patients under one roof.
She has over 20 years of physiotherapy experience, all of which have been in private practice. Penny has obtained her Diploma of Advanced Orthopedic Manual and Manipulative Physiotherapy (FCAMPT) making her a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Therapists.
Physiotherapists who are Fellows of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy (FCAMPT) have completed extensive post -graduate education in the area of orthopaedics and have achieved internationally recognized qualifications in hands on manual and manipulative therapy.
FCAMPT Physiotherapists' knowledge and skills enable them to treat complex pathology and movement disorders of both the spine and extremities, which can cause both acute and chronic pain and disability.
Physiotherapists with the FCAMPT designation are committed to providing the highest level of quality, patient-centred care combining clinical experience with evidence based practice.
Penny also incorporates the use of Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) into her treatment of many different types of injuries.
She is the first physiotherapist to practice IMS in Victoria and has been thrilled with the results. Penny has a keen interest in treating foot and ankle problems, dance, gymnastics, skating, and soccer injuries. She is always up for a challenge!
Penny Salmas is a Certified Gunn IMS Practitioner.
