About Our Presenter:
Jessica DeMars (she/her), PT, Breathe Well Physio, graduated from the University of Alberta in 1998 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physical Therapy. She practiced in the private setting and continued her education with numerous post-graduate courses. In 2006, her focus shifted to learning about the impact breathing has on health. Since that time, she has attended numerous courses and gained in-depth knowledge in treating chronic and complex disease. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Jessica quickly recognized the implications of Long COVID on the population and has pivoted to creating programming that delivers the best available evidence for both those living with Long COVID and health care professionals working with this population. She is a member of the Long COVID Physio Disability and Safe Rehab committee.
