✨ What a Year at the Inertia Physio+ Clinic! ✨

As the year comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on an incredible year at Inertia Physio+.

We kicked things off with a Christmas party at Drew and Sarah’s back in January (because why not start the year celebrating 🎉), and from there it only got better!

This year we welcomed two new Inertia babies—a huge congratulations to our growing Physio family 👶💙🩷

Our team also grew, and we were excited to welcome some amazing new faces:
👏 Physiotherapists Elizabeth and Zac
👏 Massage Therapist Sarah
👏 Front Desk Superstar Avro

We also gave the clinic a little refresh, renovating to add a brand new treatment room, allowing us to help even more people in our community.

We continued expanding our services this year as well. Our Physiotherapist Alisha completed her Manual Lymphatic Drainage training, and we were proud to add this specialized treatment to our services list—helping us support even more patients with their recovery and wellbeing. Drew also completed his golf Physio levels and is excited about offering his services to help take your golf game to the next level.

We celebrated our 7th birthday!! Every year that passes, we reflect on where we started as just a Physio and an Athletic Therapist with a vision of a healing space. Every year, we can't believe what we have accomplished and how we have grown. We are so grateful for all of the people that have been part of it, past, present and future!

Giving back is always near and dear to our hearts and has been a big part of our year too. We were proud to sponsor numerous youth and adult sports teams and individuals, supporting movement and activity at every stage. This Christmas, we were also honoured to provide a group donation to the Kanata Food Cupboard helping some other families be able to provide a little magic and meals for their littles ones this time of year.🎄💜

We want to take a moment to sincerely thank our incredible staff for their hard work, dedication, and passion throughout the year. Your commitment to our patients and to each other is what makes Inertia Physio+ such a special place. Therapists - thank you for helping us provide top knotch services to our community. Administration staff - thank you for every little thing you do to keep our clinic feeling clean, warm and welcoming for our patients. We truly couldn't do it without all of you and are so honoured to get to work along side such a special group of humans every day!

And to our amazing patients, thank you for your continued support and trust in us. We’re so grateful to be part of your health and recovery journeys. Your support is what allows us to keep growing, improving and helping people!

Here’s to another year of movement, progress, and community. We can’t wait to see what next year brings!

🚫 Let’s Bust Some Common Physio Myths! 🚫

MYTH #1: You need a prescription to see a Physiotherapist
✅ FALSE! You can book an appointment and start treatment without a prescription.
👉 Some insurance plans may require one for coverage—but not to see us!

MYTH #2: You shouldn’t move if you have lower back pain
✅ FALSE! Movement is often part of the solution!
🚶‍♂️ Gentle activity like short walks can help reduce stiffness and speed up recovery. Core and glute activation can actually get you out of pain!

MYTH #3: All the work happens in the clinic
✅ FALSE! Your recovery is a team effort 💪
🏡 About 80% of your progress comes from staying consistent with your home exercises and other things your Physiotherapist recommends you do at home.

✨ In this busy season, this is your reminder that if you’re in pain, it’s okay to slow down. ✨

Your body is asking for attention — and you deserve to feel your best.

If you’re in pain, remember to:

✨ Take care of yourself
✨ Try using a lacrosse ball to roll out built-up tension
✨ Keep up with your daily stretches
✨ Book that Massage or Physio appointment — you don’t have to live with pain
✨ Add heat or take a warm shower to help relax tight muscles before your treatment
✨ Stay hydrated — it helps your muscles recover and can make your treatment even more effective

You’re allowed to rest. You’re allowed to reset. And we’re here to help you feel better 💜

✨ Not Your Traditional Physio Experience!✨

In many clinics, Physiotherapy can mean machines, timers, and therapists moving quickly from one patient to the next. At Inertia Physio+, we take a different approach!

Here, your session is hands-on, manual, and fully 1-on-1. No being left on a machine. No sharing your appointment time. Just focused, personalized care with a therapist who’s fully present.

It’s a different approach — more intentional, more connected, and tailored to what your body needs. Sometimes the biggest progress comes from the simplest thing:
- A therapist who’s right there with you.

Living with TMJ discomfort? Small daily habits can make a big difference.

DO:
✅ Sit tall—good posture reduces jaw strain, especially while eating
✅ Keep your teeth slightly apart and lips closed when at rest
✅ Wear your prescribed night guard
✅ See a Physiotherapist who treats TMJ related symptoms

DON’T:
🚫 Chew gum or bite pens, jewelry, or your nails
🚫 Rest your chin on your hand
🚫 Clench your teeth consciously
🚫 Push through the pain - TMJ issues are treatable!

Your jaw deserves care. These simple changes can help reduce tension, improve mobility, and support long-term relief.

What can I expect from my Pelvic Floor Assessment?

During your initial visit, your Physiotherapist will conduct an assessment which includes a detailed history of your bladder, bowel, gynecological, and sexual health as well as a physical examination.

The physical examination typically has both an external and internal component.

👉 The external component can involve an assessment of posture, breathing, low back, hips, SI joints, abdomen, functional movements, gait/impact, and/or external pelvic floor.

👉 The internal component consists of an examination of your pelvic floor vaginally and/or rectally, which is the gold standard for assessing the pelvic floor. This assessment is looking at the tone, strength, endurance, coordination, and tenderness of your pelvic floor.

You do not need to choose to participate in an internal exam on the first visit or at all throughout your Physiotherapy treatment if it is not something you are comfortable with. Assessment and treatment is based around your comfort and consent and your Physiotherapist will work with you each step of the way. An effective treatment plan can still be provided through a whole-body approach centered around your goals.

Today's Terminlogy Tip Tuesday is all about ✨Balance✨

Balance refers to the ability of an individual to maintain their center of gravity within their base of support during static and dynamic activities.

In Physiotherapy, balance is often assessed and treated to improve functional mobility, reduce falls risk, and enhance overall quality of life. Treatment may involve exercises to improve strength, coordination, and proprioception, as well as environmental modifications and assistive devices to support safe and independent movement.

Balance can also be addressed in athletes looking to enhance their balance and proprioception in sport specific movements. Tiny stabilizing muscles often get over looked and under worked in the training process of athletes. Sometimes as we train these stability mucles and proprioception through rehabilitating an injury, we get a bonus enhancement of sport performance. Almost any athlete could use more balance and stability work in the training program.

Our Story

We, the owners of Inertia Physio+, Andrew and Sarah Peters, are a husband and wife team consisting of Physiotherapist and Athletic Therapist, respectively. We each have over 15 years of experience in our fields and have been residing and providing services in the Kanata/Stittsville area for over 10 years. Throughout our lives, we have been dedicated to being athletes, students, therapists, and helping people. We are also the proud parents of two extraordinary children.

With this clinic, we are following our dream of creating a space where practitioners and patients can thrive and be their best selves, thereby dedicating themselves to the things in life that bring them the greatest happiness. It is our hope that our clinic will offer you an escape from your busy lives and sports and provide a place where you can truly let go of, and heal from, pain and injuries. We believe in finding and treating the cause of your symptoms, and are not content to treat only your symptoms.

Our goal is simple – to provide the highest quality of therapeutic care, while making a positive difference in people’s lives.
