Claire Biafore

I am an advanced manual therapist with extensive experience working in high-performance sport and clinical practice. I hold multiple professional designations, including Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), Certified Athletic Therapist (CAT(C)), Osteopathic Manual Practitioner, and Medical Acupuncture Provider. In addition to my clinical qualifications, I hold a Master’s degree and am currently completing my PhD.

As a former athlete, I bring an athlete-centered mindset to my practice and am passionate about helping athletes reach their full potential through comprehensive support, education, and evidence-informed injury management. My approach integrates hands-on therapy, rehabilitation, performance support, and collaborative care tailored to each athlete’s unique needs.

I currently work with both Lacrosse Canada and Gymnastics Canada and have extensive experience supporting Olympic, professional, and elite-level athletes. I work with athletes across a wide range of organizations and leagues, including the UFC, PFL, NLL, and OHL, among others. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with numerous national sport organizations, continually expanding my knowledge and refining my clinical expertise to provide the highest standard of care.

Outside of sport, I maintain a private practice where I treat a diverse patient population using an integrated and individualized treatment approach. I am also a professor dedicated to mentoring and educating the next generation of therapists and healthcare professionals.
