Badreddine views physiotherapy through the lens of strength and athleticism, no matter your age or your background. This philosophy has guided his career and forms the treatment approaches he uses today. Strength training and conditioning have become an essential part of every treatment plan. This allows him to take injured athletes through the entire process of rehabilitation, from initial management to full return to sport. This approach has become important over the years in guiding many young athletes through the challenging process of recovering from an ACL surgery.

Furthermore, he is one of the few physiotherapists in the Ottawa region trained in male pelvic health and can help men improve pelvic pain, function and recover from surgery, so they can get back to living life to the fullest.
