Client Spotlight: Meet Hanif! September 9, 2021 (0) Comments in News, Physiotherapy by Media Development

We are happy to introduce our amazing client, Hanif! Hanif is a 3 time gold medalist representing Canada in boccia! 

Hanif has cerebral palsy, which causes continuous contraction of muscles in the body impacting his movement, balance, and posture.  Although there are many difficulties that accompany this condition, he has not let anything stop him and strives to continue working towards his goals.  He has maintained a top 10 ranking internationally and recently won gold at the 2019 Défi Sportif AlterGo National Open.  As a client who has attended Total Therapy for 11 years, he always brings his bright outlook anytime he is at the clinic and puts a smile on all of our faces.

Christian Morin, longtime practitioner at Total Therapy and the lucky practitioner of Hanif’s, reassures us that “This is not a sad story.”  During their sessions, Hanif is always joking around and has a positive attitude. This further continues to not allow his condition define his outlook on his own life.  This is such a remarkable story, and all of us at Total Therapy are proud to have him as a client and of his accomplishments in the boccia community!
