Jennifer Chalik B.Sc. PT, in practice since 2007 in the UK. I provide private in-home therapy currently to various types of clients. Clients range from children with CP, Neurological (post CVA, Neuro-surgical, MS etc.), back and other appendicular joint pain, and various other disabilities resulting in mobility loss. I would like to focus on post-rehabilitation clients, as I feel there is a large gap in post-rehab and carry-over with CCAC/Out-patient services. I prefer GTA locations, however, I can travel as far north as the 401 and south to the lake between Woodbine and Spadina. I can be contacted either by email at Jennifer.Chalik@yahoo.ca or by phone 416-871-5532 to arrange initial consultation. (revised 2010)
