Jason Flaman

Jason has been actively practicing physiotherapy since graduating from the University of Saskatchewan in 1998.

He attained the Certificate in Sport Physiotherapy in 2002 and is a consultant with the Sports Medicine and Science Council of Saskatchewan. Over the years he has covered a multitude of sports and athletes both on-field and in-clinic.

Jason completed the intermediate and advanced post-graduate degrees in orthopedic manual and manipulative physiotherapy and is a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manual and Manipulative Physiotherapists (FCAMT) since 2007, and became certified in the Gunn IMS school of dry needling in 2018 and has integrated the tool into his practice as another technique he can use to help his clients achieve maximum recovery.

Jasons philosophy is to match the various tools at his disposal with the multitude of injuries he sees day to day – providing the best possible course of care he can to his clients.

When not at the clinic, Jason can typically be found at the hockey rink. When not at either, he enjoys any and all outdoor pursuits and can often be found near a fishing rod.

In his spare time, Kurtis is an avid mountain biker, stand-up paddleboarder, and cross-country/downhill skier. He spends most of his free hours with his wife, Janine, and his English Black Labradors Aksel and Lars, on and around the river in Saskatoon and on the slopes of Fernie, BC.

Raschelle Steppan

Raschelle has been a physiotherapist since 2008 after graduating from the University of Saskatchewan, and has been with Flaman Physio since 2015! She has taken courses specializing in temporomandibular disorders and has her CAFCI designation through the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada. She has taken courses in Advanced Orthopaedic Manual and Manipulative Therapy and plans to continue working her ways through the levels. She completed her Gunn IMS certification in July 2018.

Raschelle enjoys treating clients of all ages and with a variety of reasons for seeking out physiotherapy. She believes that there are a number of options for treatment which should be tailored to each individual in order to best return them to a pre-injury status. An important part of the rehabilitation process also involves a long-term plan for maintenance and improvement of each person’s health.

Raschelle enjoys travelling to the mountains in her free time.

Our Focus

At Flaman Physiotherapy we are focused on you — your injury, your goals, and how best to obtain maximum results for you.

All of our styles of physical therapy treatments are applied based on what we feel will work best for your specific injury. We do not believe in “cookie-cutter” solutions for individual problems.

By focusing on what the best treatment for your individual presenation is, we can attempt to minimize your injury downtime and get you back to full health as quickly as possible.

Our Method

The key to our treatments is the initial assessment.

Your therapist will spend about an hour with you in the initial visit. During this time we will cover your medical history, injury history, other health concerns, and your goals for recovery. We will then move on to assessing the injured area, determine the most likely diagnosis, and put together a plan for treatment.

We will then discuss the injury and the treatment plan with you, answer any questions you may have about our findings, and begin to implement the treatment plan which may include: hands on biomechanical care, myofascial treatment, acupuncture, Graston soft tissue release, IASTM soft tissue release, ultrasound, electrical muscle stimulation, radial shockwave treatment, and/or exercises in our gym, your gym, or at home.

Follow up 1/2 hour treatment sessions will continue to refine the diagnosis and treatment plan, progressing you to maximal recovery.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple:

At Flaman Physiotherapy we provide individualized physical therapy treatment to maximize recovery in the shortest time possible.

We know you want to recover quickly, and we want to help get you there in as positive and as safe a manner as can be accomplished.

We are focused on you, we view every client and injury as unique and determine the best method to treat their indivdual problems and circumstances, and we use these guiding principles to maximize your recovery and minimize your downtime.
