Kelly Salvador RMT
- Certified FRC Mobility Specialist
- Sports Massage
- Graston Technique Fully Certified
- Concussion Management

Originally from Timmins, Ontario, I moved to Ottawa to pursue a career in health care that would focus on body awareness and healthy lifestyle choices. I graduated from the International Academy of Massage Therapy in 2010 and am an active member of the CMTO (College of Massage Therapists of Ontario). As a registered massage therapist, my goal is to use various techniques such as trigger point therapy, myofascial release, joint mobilizations, stretching, deep tissue work and swedish massage to help treat imbalances within the body. As a former competitive athlete, I understand the mentality, focus and drive behind becoming the best competitor one can be. Understanding when to push the limits and when to scale back isn’t always clear, therefore leaning on a support system that utilizes recovery, balance and time is essential. I enjoy working with individuals and athletes of various calibers, from weekend warriors, to elite athletes.

This year, thousands of walkers and runners have committed to participating in annual event to raise money and awareness for Women's Mental Health.⁣

⁣
I can't think of a year where I have done more personal reflection on my mental health. As Joanna and I approach the 1 year anniversary of .rx it will come with a different outlook. Our attitudes and drive remain strong, but we can't ignore the challenges this year has thrown our way.💯⁣
⁣
And we're not alone. We're amongst the millions of people worldwide who have had to pivot, adjust, absorb, etc. the effects this pandemic has had on our businesses, families, personal mental and physical health. More than ever, we are connecting with our colleagues, friends and family to check in, recognizing the extra support we're all needing to navigate 'the new normal'.🖤⁣
⁣
This year, my team "The Devil Wears Strava" will be coming together in a socially-distanced-safe event to participate in our respective 5km and 10km endeavors. I am personally sponsoring our group to celebrate their committed to their own mental and physical health, as well as their communities they are supporting from their sign up and fundraising endeavors.⁣
______________________________⁣
⁣
There is still time to sign up! If you would like to join our group, head on over to the Run for Women Ottawa event page. On September 27th we will meeting at my clinic to enjoy snacks and coffee 6feet apart after conquering our goals. If you cannot make it that day, you can complete your own route from September 17th-27th. ⁣
⁣
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. ⁣

Be well,⁣

This photo was snapped October 30th, 2017. New acquaintances, Joanna and I went for brunch with our mutual friend Laura. A very patient Laura listened to two women excitedly share their visions of a recovery studio in Ottawa, the first of its' kind. ⁣⁣

The rest is history.💁‍♀️💁‍♀️ ⁣⁣

Small businesses are not built over night. They are built over many glasses of wine, after work eats and endless DMs, keeping the conversation going, sharing ideas and curating the vision we saw for ourselves (which continues to evolve!). ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Trust your gut. Pair up with someone different from you! Joanna and I bring different things to the table and we learn from one another. It fosters great ideas and pushes us outside our comfort zone. ⁣⁣

Hi, friends! ⁣
So, it's been a minute. ⁣
⁣
I wanted to check in and say 'hey'. Thank you for all the kind messages and check-ins from clients and friends alike. We are indeed in strange and interesting times and if you've noticed I've been a bit quiet here, I've simply been.. pivoting.💫⁣
⁣
I've worked my ass off for 10 years in a career I'm very fortunate to love, but also have worked tirelessly to build. So, when this world event started to effect us, eventually closing the clinic..⁣
⁣. I just needed a minute. (Read: at least a few weeks, a tasty cocktail of booze, carbohydrates and stress). And to my great relief, so did many of my fellow business owners. Some of us didn't rush into pivoting our businesses because for some we had no idea how. Or if you're sticklers for quality and value like we are, we wanted to make sure the decisions we made were solid. Valuable. Applicable to our clients and patients.👊⁣
⁣
The last few weeks involved a nice shift.⁣
♡ Better sleep⁣
♡ Enjoyment and need for hard exercise⁣
♡ Solid nutrition and liquids outside of coffee & booze⁣
⁣
Acceptance. ⁣
⁣
I am here for you and available remotely to help guide you through self-massage, pain management, rehabilitation protocols and movement assessments.🏃‍♀️ So don't be shy to reach out, there are endless ways for us to work together, apart.🖤⁣
⁣
Stay safe friends, I can't wait to see you all again soon!⁣

To our valued clientele and patients,⁣
⁣
Effective immediately, we have made the decision to temporarily close Kinetic Edge/ Recover RX.⁣
⁣
We have been monitoring the COVID-19 recommendations diligently. The current recommendations by Ottawa Public Health is for all Ottawa residents to practice social distancing and forego nonessential services. Manual Therapies including but not limited to chiropractic care, physiotherapy and registered massage therapy require hands on care and contact with the public, and we feel we have a responsibility to our patients to suspend care until otherwise advised. The health and wellbeing of our staff, practitioners, clients and their families is of the upmost importance at this time. ⁣
⁣
We enter this industry to be a valuable part of your health plan. We will be available to offer you mobility, injury and exercise support during this transition.
⁣
At present, we are taking it week by week, cancelling all future appointments up to and including March 21st, where we will actively evaluate the continuance of care. ⁣
⁣
Please keep an eye on your inboxes, we will be in touch via email and phone first thing Monday & Tuesday to reschedule your appointments and offer any assistance we can in this challenging time. ⁣
⁣
Yours in health and wellness,⁣
⁣
Joanna, Kelly & the Kinetic Edge/Recover RX Team 💙

Opening .rx with my business partner .joanna.taylor has brought many new faces into our clinic space and into my practice. I thought I would take a moment to re-introduce myself to you! 🙋‍♀️

I grew up in Norther Ontario and have lived in Ottawa for the last 12 years. My practice started out like many RMTs in a booming chiropractic clinic. I swiftly moved into a sport-specific practice 2 years later. 🏋️‍♀️

I hesitate to ‘specialize’ in anything because IMO it can push an individual into hindering their point of view & their skill set. I absolutely have a passion for sport and athletics; I can confidently say I have put in the hours, time, shared heartbreak and EDUCATION in working with my clients to achieve their dreams and goals. But I have also taken immense pride in working with:

☆ weekend warriors
☆ pregnant moms
☆ badass seniors where age TRULY is only a number
☆ teens and young adults
☆ anyone who identifies with knowing they deserve to live a life pain free, with a body that moves WELL & OFTEN 💥

I won’t sell you on a quick fix.
And if you’ve been on my table you also know I tell it as it is. 💁‍♀️

I’m also lucky as hell to come into work every day loving my work and I know that that is a gift. I also love design, can be found drinking day old coffee, never set eyes on a pastry I didn’t like and love to sweat it out with friends. 🏊‍♀️

I look forward to working with you. 👊

Reset.
Resolve.
Recover.
Renew.

Are you a goal setter? Is there a fancy new journal with beautiful templates highlighting your year ahead?

My word most relevant to the new year for me is: B•A•L•A•N•C•E. 🖤

Seems simple enough, I know. But opening a new business AND running my practice AND being a friend and partner AND respecting my body and mind feels at some points impossible. 💯

If it feels like I've dropped off the internet a touch this last week it's because I have. I'm checking in a little, but mostly trying to disconnect and enjoy this INCREDIBLY fortunate holiday I'm able to have. (Fortunate, but read: have worked my ass off so I can truly enjoy it). 🌊

I'll be stoked and totally renewed coming back home and look forward to to many amazing things we have in store for you, Ottawa. 👊 @ Red Frog Beach

Tight psoas? Getting it released can do WONDERS! Not only does a tight psoas feel awful 🤢, but it can be the cause of low back pain as well as movement innefficiencies.

If you're looking for something to help release it on your own between appointments, the Pso-Rite is a tool I have recommended to clients!

Remember to take some time to relax and restore your body and mind this holiday season! 🤗
