Jayden Uchida
PT Resident, MSc(PT), BA(Kin)

Jayden holds a Master of Science in Physical Therapy from the University of Toronto and a Bachelor of Kinesiology from the University of British Columbia. Her lifelong passion for sports—including soccer, field hockey, and netball—ignited her interest in injury prevention and recovery, inspiring her to pursue a rewarding career in physiotherapy. She has completed her Level 1 Advanced Integrated Musculoskeletal (AIM) accreditation from the Canadian Physiotherapy Association Orthopaedic Division and is eager to continue progressing through advanced training in manual therapy.

She has worked with a variety of populations across a broad range of settings including, acute care and general internal medicine, paediatrics, geriatrics, and athletes of all levels ranging from weekend warriors to high performance. Recently, she served as a member of the therapy team for the University of Toronto’s Varsity Women’s Field Hockey team during their 2024 season, providing emergency response, on-field care, and injury rehabilitation to support athletic performance and recovery. During this time she gained invaluable experience employing different taping techniques, concussion rehabilitation, anterior cruciate ligament prevention protocols, and pre- and post-event soft tissue release techniques.

Jayden’s areas of interest include sports-related injuries, management of neck pain, as well as hip and knee injuries. She employs an evidence-based approach to rehabilitation that integrates manual therapy, active movement, and education to address the unique needs and goals of each individual. Her multi-modal approach incorporates individualized exercise programs, hands on treatment such as soft tissue release and joint mobilizations, taping, as well as advanced modalities including shockwave therapy. Jayden is deeply committed to guiding and empowering her clients throughout their recovery journey, helping them achieve optimal health, function, and overall well-being.

Outside the clinic, Jayden loves to try new coffee shops, watch all kinds of movies, and take spin classes!
