Lymphatic Therapy
Cancer Rehabilitation
Toronto Clinic
Lymphedema Management
Coming Soon
Hi, my name is Joanna. I am a Registered Physiotherapist and Combined Decongestive Therapist (CDT) with over 12 years of experience, based in Toronto, ON.
I specialize in cancer rehabilitation, lymphatic therapy, lymphedema management and individualized exercise programming.
I completed my Bachelor of Science (B.Sc) in Kinesiology at McGill University, followed by a Master’s degree (MPT) in Physiotherapy at Western University, graduating in 2012. I have completed Levels 1 – 3 of my Manual Lymph Drainage and Combined Decongestive Therapy training through the Dr. Vodder International School, as well as lymph taping.
For over 7 years I worked at Sunnybrook Hospital, primarily with the cancer population. I was the physiotherapist for the breast cancer centre and worked closely with patients throughout their cancer journey to ensure the best possible outcomes of care.
In 2020, I made the mid-pandemic move to Vancouver, BC. I eventually opened my private practice, Lymphysio, to help fill the gaps in care, by providing individualized cancer care support for all cancer disease sites, at all stages of their cancer journey. I also provide generalized lymphatic therapy for pre and post-op care, acute injuries and management of chronic conditions.
As of April 2025, I have returned to Toronto and look forward to working with my hometown clients again soon to help you attain a happy, healthy life.

What my clients are saying…
"I was very thankful to connect with Joanna before my double mastectomy. She taught me what to expect after surgery, how to care for my drains, how to problem solve day-to-day issues such as sleeping and washing, and how to regain my upper body mobility in a safe and effective manner. As a result, I was better equipped and everything went much more smoothly post-surgery because I was well prepared".

"My journey with cancer has been far from straightforward. Since my diagnosis, each step towards healing has felt like a whirlwind. In all the chaos, the specifics of managing side effects of my treatment often took a backseat. It wasn't until I grappled with lymphedema that I embarked on what felt like a never ending search for a therapist (the right fit). And then I found Joanna! She has been a true blessing. Not only did she provide the support I desperately needed, but she also offered invaluable insights into aspects of my treatment that's often overlooked. Joanna's patience and commitment to educating her patients during the treatment journey are remarkable. I look forward to our sessions knowing that each one leaves me not just feeling better, but also with great advice. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking not only relief but also enlightenment along the way."

"Joanna was incredibly attentive and perfectly understood my needs, assisting me in the rehabilitation process after a mastectomy with lymph node removal. In addition to being an excellent professional, she was empathetic and provided me with comprehensive care."
