Christy Taunton
I grew up in Kingsville, Ontario and moved to London to attend university in 1998. I graduated with my Master of Physical Therapy degree in 2004. I worked in private clinics in Strathroy and London as well as long-term care and retirement homes. I’ve worked at Talbot Trail Physiotherapy since 2013. I love living and working in St. Thomas and enjoy the variety of clients and conditions that I treat. I live in St. Thomas with my husband, our two children and our Boston Terrier. I enjoy being outside especially paddleboarding, hiking, gardening, and going to the beach.
Fun Fact: I knit and do macrame in my spare time and made all the macrame pieces in our clinic

Director/Physiotherapist
Stephanie McCoy
I was born and raised in London, Ontario. I have always wanted to be a physiotherapist, as I had been in and out of physiotherapy multiple times following various soccer injuries in my career. I moved down to North Carolina to play Division 2 soccer, where I was starting goalkeeper and also made it to Third Team All Conference. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in 2017 from the University of Mount Olive. I moved back up to Canada where I went to McMaster University and got my Masters of Science in Physiotherapy in 2019. I have been with Talbot Trail since I graduated in 2019. My favourite part of my job is seeing my patients do well and feel ready to return to their normal activities with no issue. In my spare time, you can find me re-watching Brooklyn Nine-Nine, or playing a round of outdoor or virtual golf.
Fun Fact: I am probably one of the most uncoordinated people you will ever meet (until I am on the soccer field).
Favourite Movie: movie I can never get tired of watching is Disney’s Hercules. I am also impartial to say Avengers Endgame, or any movie/show in the MCU
Go To Playlist: My favourite artists include Kacey Musgraves, Beyonce and Taylor Swift. However, I am most likely listening to a dance or hip-hop playlist throughout the day or working out.
