Michelle DeMarchi

Physiotherapist, Osteopathic Manual Practitioner and Ideal Protein Coach Founder & Director of PhysioPlus Health Group

Michelle has been dedicated to helping individuals improve their health and well being for over 20 years. As a physiotherapist and osteopathic manual practitioner she has successfully helped patients recover from a wide variety of injuries including sports injuries, back and neck injuries, muscle and ligament injuries, tendonitis, repetitive strain injuries and arthritis. She works with individuals of all ages and activity levels, ranging from competitive and recreational athletes, to those just wanting to become more active.

She inspires her patients to take a more active role in their health by providing them with the knowledge, strategies and tools they need to achieve their goals and make positive lifestyle changes. As founder and director of PhysioPlus Health Group Michelle has been the driving force behind the development and delivery of innovative treatment programs for Nutrition & Weight Loss, Knee Arthritis, ACL Injury and Injured Runners, as well as an Urgent Sports Injury and Fracture Clinic, Pre/Post Natal Programs and a Therapeutic Pilates and Yoga Program.

Her passion for Ideal Protein developed when she did the program herself. She was impressed with how convenient and easy to follow the program was, and was amazed at the results. By coaching and telling her story she hopes to inspire others to make positive lifestyle changes that help them achieve their healthiest and happiest body ever!

Michelle has a Bachelor of Science in Physiotherapy from the University of Toronto (1992) and a Doctorate in Osteopathic Manual Practice from the Canadian College of Osteopathy (2004). When she’s not helping individuals achieve better health, Michelle spends most of her time with her 2 children. She makes exercise a regular part of her routine, and loves participating in aerobics classes, playing tennis and travelling when time permits!
