✨Meet Justin Mai, the newest member of the KH Rehab team!✨
Born and raised in Ottawa, Justin completed his Honours Bachelor of Science in Human Kinetics at the University of Ottawa and earned his Master of Physical Therapy from the University of Sydney in Australia.
Justin is passionate about helping people move better, overcome injuries, and get back to doing what they love— whether that’s running, lifting in the gym, playing sports, keeping up with their kids, or simply feeling confident in their bodies again.
His philosophy is simple:
Your goals are his goals.
Justin has helped:
🏃♂️ Runners return to running after chronic foot and knee pain
🏋🏻♀️ Gym-goers get back to squatting, deadlifting, and lifting confidently
💪🏻 Active individuals rebuild strength, movement, and confidence after setbacks
Justin’s personal motto “I’m not my diagnosis, and injuries don’t define me,” comes from his own personal journey with chronic pain.
Before becoming a physiotherapist, sports injuries and health challenges forced him to miss out on activities he loved, leaving him feeling stuck and disconnected from his identity. Justin was faced with the diagnoses of Psoriatic Arthritis and Ankylosing Spondylitis— two autoimmune conditions that can cause significant pain, inflammation, and stiffness.
Rather than allowing his diagnosis to define him, Justin became determined to learn everything he could about recovery, movement, and health. Today, his conditions are in remission, and chronic pain no longer controls his life. His own journey through pain, injury, and healing is what drives his passion to help others.
Justin believes that the best outcomes come from collaboration, communication, and working together. He highly values your thoughts, input, and feedback. He genuinely cares about both the physical and mental aspects of recovery and is committed to guiding patients through every step of their rehab to performance and health journey.
You can find Justin at KH on Wednesdays from 2-6pm— Online booking is now available through the link in our bio! 📆🎉
Please join us in giving Justin a warm welcome to the KH family! 👏🏼
