ABOUT US.

 

MUSKOKA MVMT

Muskoka MVMT (pronounced “movement”) Physiotherapy + Sport Injury Clinic was established in June of 2020 by Huntsville native, Carly Litchfield. Carly’s goal is to give back to her community by providing high quality, one-on-one, evidence-based care to a variety of patients in the Muskoka area. Whether the patients by young or old, local or seasonal, the Muskoka MVMT team is passionate about working with patients to get them back doing what they love.

The Muskoka MVMT clinic is housed in a fantastic downtown location, which is shared by Main Street Wellness, a group of entrepreneurial health practitioners offering a variety of services. Services include massage therapy, osteopathy, psychotherapy, counselling, fascial stretch therapy, and orthopaedic surgery consultations.  Sharing space with this team allows for great collaboration when needed, resulting in treatment for the entire body and mind.

 

MEET THE TEAM.

Carly is a Huntsville local who is excited to be able to practice in her home town. She credits her involvement in Huntsville sports for pushing her to pursue a career in physiotherapy.

After completing her degree in Kinesiology at Western with a focus on athletic therapy, Carly explored the world of research obtaining her Master’s degree in Health and Aging. Her thesis, now a published article, focused on Masters athletes and their ability to continue in competitive sport as older adults. She then went on to pursue her physiotherapy degree from Queens, where she received top academic honours.

Carly believes in individualized treatment programs that combine a hands-on, manual therapy approach with personalized exercise programs. She has interest in the practice of “prehab” for injury prevention through identification and correction of movement faults, as well a passion for treating injured patients who are eager to return to their sports or active lifestyles. She has completed courses in concussion rehab, rehab for runners, soft tissue release, and has completed her level 2 manual therapy.

Carly lives in Huntsville with her fiancé Luke and dog Bode. You can find her on the soccer field, or the ski hill, or in the Algonquin backcountry enjoying all that this region has to offer!
