Nicola Gray

CAT(C), ATC

Nicola grew up in Sault Ste. Marie and was always involved in sports at the competitive levels the city had to offer. While mainly participating in soccer and hockey, she saw firsthand the impact injuries had on teams and individuals. Turning her passion for athletics and helping others into a career was a natural progression. While completing her BSc in Athletic Training at Lake Superior State University, she worked with different sport teams around the "Twin Saults". She has since spent the past 20 years working with athletes in various sports and skill levels, in both clinic and on-field settings.

As a Certified Athletic Therapist, Nicola's focus has shifted more specifically to concussion treatment and management. After realizing there was a gap in the local area offering appropriate resources for concussion management and education, Nicola became the first Certified CCMI Concussion Practitioner in Sault Ste. Marie and was at the forefront of bringing a one-stop location for concussion resources to the city. She has recently further expanded her concussion management training with SHIFT Concussion Management and has teamed up with Integro Physiotherapy to provide another location for concussion services to the city!

Nicola’s views on rehabilitation involve a multi-disciplinary approach, providing a well-rounded outlook with any management plan. She believes education and functional movements are key to any rehabilitation. She likes to begin the process with basic movements and has a passion for modifying and progressing exercises –tailoring a management plan specific to an individual’s needs.
