Skyler Dondeenu

Physiotherapy Resident

Skyler is a physiotherapy resident with a passion for helping an array of populations reach their utmost potential. He has worked with a wide variety of clientele over the past 6 years, including elderly, athletic, and neurologically affected individuals.

He developed his passion in health and wellness as a teenager, where he began training in Muay Thai and boxing as a means to get in shape. After realizing the importance of maintaining a strong and mobile body when it comes to training and sport performance, he went on to pursue a degree in Kinesiology at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT). After graduating, Skyler began work as a falls prevention and exercise instructor for the elderly, eventually transitioning to working as a PTA. With 3 years of working as a PTA, he decided to pursue a Master’s of Science in Physical Therapy degree at the University of Liverpool, which he completed in 2024. During this time, he even competed with the university Amateur Boxing team.

Through clinical placements in post-op wards, outpatient MSK, community paediatrics, and a cardiorespiratory response team, Skyler has developed a well-rounded understanding of assessing and treating a variety of conditions. Working as a resident in private neurological and complex orthopaedic rehab has also honed Skyler’s eye for abnormal movement patterns that often present over-time when an individual’s functional capabilities are affected. With RX Physio Health, Skyler hopes to utilize his skillset to aid in getting injured individuals back to the things they love, and propel high performers toward peak condition. Skyler prides himself in his holistic approach to health, and values building good connections with clients through collaboration.

Outside of work Skyler enjoys spending time with friends and family, video games, weight lifting, and has recently gotten into running.
