Meet Megan Wallenius — Your Stittsville Physiotherapist

BSc Kinesiology — Queen's University  |  MSc Physiotherapy — Brunel University London

Megan's path into physiotherapy started on the gym floor. After completing her BSc in Kinesiology at Queen's University, she worked as a Strength and Conditioning Coach right here at BTB — helping members build strength, mobility, and resilience through training. That hands-on coaching experience led her to pursue her Master's in Physiotherapy at Brunel University London, where she trained alongside professionals treating everyone from post-surgical patients to active seniors. Now practicing as BTB's Resident Physiotherapist, Megan combines clinical skill with a coach's eye for movement — helping you get out of pain and stay there.

Physiotherapy FAQ — Stittsville

Physiotherapists treat a wide range of musculoskeletal, neurological, and post-surgical conditions — including chronic back and neck pain, arthritis, joint replacements, sprains and strains, post-op recovery, balance and fall prevention, and age-related mobility issues. Megan works with everyone from active seniors and post-surgical patients to busy professionals and weekend athletes.
Both are hands-on rehabilitation, but physiotherapy covers a broader scope — including chronic pain, post-surgical rehab, neurological conditions, and age-related concerns — while athletic therapy focuses more narrowly on musculoskeletal injuries and return-to-sport. At BTB we offer both. If you're unsure, book with either practitioner and we'll point you in the right direction. Compare both services here.
Most extended health benefit plans (through your employer or private coverage) include physiotherapy, and Megan's credentials are recognized by all major insurers in Ontario. We offer direct billing where possible so you're not paying out of pocket and waiting weeks for reimbursement. Bring your insurance card to your first appointment and we'll handle it.
No referral is needed to see a physiotherapist in Ontario. You can book directly with Megan through our online booking system. Some insurance plans may require a physician's referral for reimbursement — check your specific plan details, or call us and we'll help you figure it out.
Absolutely. Megan regularly works with adults 55+ who are returning to movement after years away — whether because of pain, surgery, or just life getting busy. Your first session is a full assessment, and every plan is built around your current level, goals, and health history. There's no "too old" and no "too out of shape" to start.
Yes — post-surgical rehab is one of the most common reasons people see a physio. Whether you've had a hip or knee replacement, rotator cuff repair, or back surgery, Megan builds structured rehab programs that work within your surgeon's protocols to safely rebuild strength and mobility.
It depends on your condition, goals, and how your body responds. Megan will give you an honest estimate during your initial assessment. Many acute issues improve significantly within 4–6 sessions, while chronic or post-surgical cases may need longer support.
Yes — that's one of the biggest advantages of having a physiotherapist inside a gym. Megan can prescribe exercises you complete on our gym floor, and when you're ready to graduate from rehab, our coaching team is right here to keep you progressing without starting over somewhere new.

Why This Program Matters for WOSC Athletes

Youth Sports Team Fitness Dryland Strength Training in Stittsville & Kanata

As the season progresses:

  • Sprint speed drops

  • Fatigue accumulates

  • Minor hip, groin, and ankle issues appear

  • Recovery slows

Technical training alone does not prevent this.

Structured in-season strength and conditioning ensures WOSC athletes:

  • Maintain acceleration and power

  • Improve deceleration control and change-of-direction strength

  • Reduce non-contact injury risk (ACL, ankle, hip, groin)

  • Build total-body strength that transfers directly to match performance

  • Sustain durability through a long competitive season

This is physical preparation designed to support WOSC’s competitive standard.

Know The Science

Soccer is a multi-directional sport requiring elite levels of speed, agility, aerobic endurance, and reactive strength. Players must possess both explosive short-burst capabilities and sustained cardiovascular output. Repeated sprint ability, change of direction quickness, and landing mechanics are essential for performance and injury prevention—especially in developing pre-collegiate athletes athletes transitioning into higher levels of play.

The best athletes are not only technically sound but physically resilient. Research shows:

45% Reduction in ACL Injuries — Neuromuscular training programs reduce ACL injury risk in youth athletes by up to 45%. (Myer et al., 2013)

Improved Sprint & Agility — Resistance training significantly improves sprint performance and change-of-direction ability in youth soccer players. (Faigenbaum et al., 2009; Chaabene et al., 2020)

70% of Injuries Are Preventable — Up to 70% of injuries in elite youth soccer players (ages 13–19) are non-contact and preventable. (Le Gall et al., 2006)

These findings emphasize the need for structured strength & conditioning as a foundational layer athletic development; not just for performance enhancement but as a powerful tool for injury prevention.
