Tyson Williams
PHYSIOTHERAPIST
Read Full Bio
Tyson was born and raised in Smithers, BC where he grew up playing a variety of sports and enjoyed the outdoor lifestyle Smithers has to offer. His dad taught him to golf at the young age of 4 and he trained in martial arts of Tae-kwon-do achieving his black belt at 11 years old. He then took a break from martial arts to play soccer, eventually going on to play at a university level with the UNBC Timberwolves.
He applied for physiotherapy school in the UK and studied in Manchester, England at Manchester Metropolitan university where he got to enjoy the English culture and soccer as well as travel throughout the UK, and Europe.
Following studying in the UK, he returned to his hometown of Smithers to start his career as a physiotherapist in his hometown. He had the valuable opportunity to be mentored as a new graduate in 2015 by Graham Pollard at Alpine Physiotherapy in Smithers. This set a very solid foundation at the start of his career learning many of the skills not taught in university.
Tyson went on to work as the head physiotherapist of the UNBC Timberwolves men’s and women’s soccer and basketball teams for 2 season in Prince George. Here he dove into learning acute injury and player management of a sports team, return to play protocols, and how to manage an athlete in their journey returning to play.
More recently, he has been interested in pain science through course study of pain researcher Greg Lehman, adaptation principles of Jean Francois of the running clinic, and the benefits/uses for blood flow restriction training. Tyson enjoys treating patients of all ages and injuries and has a special interest in treating back pain and knee patients.
He thoroughly enjoys taking a combined approach of pain relief, reassurance, and empowering his patients through “movement optimism” approach from Greg Lehman followed by an active exercise based approach to physiotherapy.
He is married and has 3 cats and enjoys hiking, weight lifting and running. Tyson also has a special interest in martial arts and still trains to this day. He also thoroughly enjoys sharing self defense and personal empowerment skills with others.
Tyson and his wife moved to Williams Lake to be closer to family. He and his wife love the outdoor lifestyle, the down to earth people and beautiful scenery Williams Lake and the Cariboo region has to offer.
