Del is a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) and Certified Athletic Therapist (CAT(C)) with a strong background in musculoskeletal assessment, injury rehabilitation, movement, and performance.

With training in both Massage Therapy and Athletic Therapy, Del brings a comprehensive perspective to patient care. Rather than focusing solely on where discomfort is felt, she considers the individual as a whole—including movement, injury history, physical demands, and personal goals—to help guide an individualized treatment approach.

Del’s clinical and athletic therapy experience includes working with Toronto Rock Lacrosse, Appleby College, York University’s Sports Injury Clinic, and within multidisciplinary clinical environments. Her background includes soft-tissue therapy, joint mobilization, musculoskeletal assessment, injury management and rehabilitation, exercise prescription, assisted stretching and PNF techniques, taping and bracing, and return-to-activity protocols.

Del holds an Honours Bachelor of Arts from York University with a major in Kinesiology & Health Science and completed York University’s Athletic Therapy Certification Program, where she was the 2025 recipient of the Boni Manual Therapy Award.

Del’s approach is particularly well suited to active adults, athletes, gym-goers, and individuals dealing with musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, injury, or limitations in movement. However, you don’t need to be an athlete to benefit from her care. Treatment is tailored to each patient’s needs, activity level, and goals.

Patients can expect thoughtful assessment, individualized hands-on treatment, clear communication, and practical recommendations designed to help them move, recover, and function well beyond the treatment room.

Zakk Dodge, RMT, is a Registered Massage Therapist with a strong background in strength training, movement, and physical performance. Prior to becoming an RMT, Zakk spent more than five years as a Certified Personal Trainer with GoodLife Fitness, including working directly with members at this Square One location. During that time, he helped clients improve their strength, fitness, movement, and overall physical capacity.

Whether addressing muscular tension and discomfort, supporting recovery from training, improving mobility, or simply helping patients feel and move better, his focus is on understanding each patient’s needs and tailoring treatment accordingly.

A graduate of Kikkawa College’s Massage Therapy program, Zakk’s clinical education included anatomy, physiology, pathology, assessment, and hands-on therapeutic techniques. His combined background in massage therapy and strength and conditioning gives him a valuable perspective when working with active individuals, recreational athletes, gym-goers, and anyone looking to maintain a healthy, strong, and capable body.

Zakk believes effective care should be collaborative, practical, and specific to the individual.

Dr. Rob Villa is a chiropractor whose practice is built around assessment-driven care, structured rehabilitation, and long-term capacity building, rather than quick fixes or passive, symptom-only treatment.

His clinical approach centers on understanding how joints move, how tissues tolerate load, and why pain or dysfunction develops when physical capacity is exceeded. Rather than relying on routine or repetitive care, Dr. Villa focuses on identifying the specific limitations in movement, strength, and control that contribute to a patient’s condition and then applying targeted interventions to drive meaningful adaptation.

A Structured, Systems-Based Approach

Care follows a clear clinical framework that progresses patients from detailed assessment, to rehabilitation, to recovery support, and ultimately toward higher levels of physical resilience and independence. Treatment is individualized and may include chiropractic adjustments, neuro-functional acupuncture, limited and targeted soft tissue therapy, red light therapy to support tissue recovery and tolerance, and prescribed rehabilitation or strength-based loading when appropriate.

Passive therapies are used intentionally to reduce pain and improve tolerance, but they are not viewed as curative on their own. Lasting improvement is achieved through building stronger, more resilient tissues via appropriately prescribed movement and loading, guided by ongoing reassessment and clinical oversight.

>Health is not maintained by constant treatment, but by building the capacity and resilience to move, train, and live with confidence.

Who This Approach Is Best Suited For

Dr. Villa treats one patient at a time and prioritizes education, accountability, and long-term planning over rushed visits or standardized treatment protocols. His approach is particularly well suited for individuals with persistent or recurrent pain, complex or multi-joint issues, and those seeking an evidence-based, movement-informed path from injury recovery to long-term physical capacity.

Patients who value understanding their body, participating actively in their recovery, and working toward durable improvements in function tend to see the best results with this approach.

Dr. Villa’s academic achievements:

>BA Kinesiology (Specialized Honours), Doctorate of Chiropractic, Contemporary Medical Acupuncture, FR® Release, FRC® Mobility Specialist, FR ISM® Strength Coach, FRA®
