✨We are excited to introduce our new physiotherapist, Andrew Flynn, to our team!
Book now with Andrew on our website for Tuesday, Thursdays and Saturdays!
Andrew graduated with a Master of Physical Therapy from the University of British Columbia in 2015. Throughout his career, he has focused on treating people one-on-one for a wide variety of sports injuries, general aches and pains, and chronic health conditions.

Having personally experienced repeated shoulder dislocations and surgeries, Andrew has developed a strong interest in assisting others with shoulder injuries. An unexpected diagnosis of Ankylosing Spondylitis during his studies further motivated him to specialize in treating arthritic conditions, including Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis.

Outside the clinic, Andrew enjoys spending time with his young family, mountain biking, snowboarding, traveling, and frequenting local coffee shops.

Conquer new heights, care for your climb! ⛰️ Calling all mountain climbers! Let's talk about the thrill of scaling peaks and the importance of physiotherapy care for active climbers. 🧗‍♀️🧗‍♂️

1️⃣ Strengthen and stabilize: Engage in targeted exercises to build strength in your core, legs, and upper body, ensuring your muscles are prepared for the demands of climbing.
2️⃣ Injury prevention: Regular physiotherapy sessions can help identify and address any imbalances, weaknesses, or potential risk factors to minimize the chance of injuries during climbs.
3️⃣ Rehabilitation: In case of an injury, physiotherapy plays a crucial role in the recovery process, guiding you through exercises, manual therapies, and techniques to regain strength and mobility.
4️⃣ Flexibility and mobility: Optimize your body's range of motion and flexibility through tailored stretching routines, enhancing your climbing performance and reducing the risk of strains or sprains.
5️⃣ Recovery and self-care: Post-climb, indulge in physiotherapy treatments such as massage, heat therapy, or foam rolling to soothe sore muscles and promote faster recovery.

Whether you're a seasoned climber or just starting out, incorporating physiotherapy care into your climbing journey can enhance your performance, prevent injuries, and ensure a safe and successful ascent! ⛰️

You can still strengthen your muscles in between physiotherapy appointments! 💪 Here are some muscle-strengthening exercises you can do at home to keep the ball rolling:

1. Bodyweight Squats: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, lower your hips down as if sitting back into a chair, then push through your heels to return to a standing position. Repeat for a set of 10-15 reps.

2. Lunges: Step forward with one leg and lower your body until both knees are at a 90-degree angle. Push back up and repeat with the opposite leg. Aim for 10-15 reps on each leg.

3. Glute Bridge: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift your hips off the ground, squeezing your glutes at the top, then slowly lower back down. Perform 10-15 reps.

4. Glute Kickbacks: Get on all fours with your hands and knees on the ground. Keeping your knee bent, lift one leg up and back, squeezing your glutes. Lower back down and repeat on the other leg. Aim for 10-15 reps on each side.

Remember to consult with your physiotherapist before starting any new exercises to ensure they are appropriate for your specific condition and to get guidance on proper form and technique.

Stride strong, run smart! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ When it comes to running, prevention is key!
Let's talk about those common running injuries and how to steer clear of them.

1️⃣ Listen to your body: Pay attention to any discomfort or pain and give yourself proper rest and recovery.
2️⃣ Warm up and cool down: Always start with dynamic stretches and end with static stretches to loosen up and prevent muscle strain.
3️⃣ Gradual progress: Increase your mileage and intensity slowly to allow your body to adapt and avoid overuse injuries.
4️⃣ Good form: Focus on maintaining proper posture, stride length, and foot strike to minimize stress on joints and muscles.

When something feels off or if you have any questions book an appointment with one of our Physical Therapists for advice and more tips to keep you running pain-free!

Peak Health Chiropractic

Peak Health Chiropractic is an evidence based health and wellness practice located in Squamish British Columbia. We are committed to helping those in the sea to sky corridor with their health and performance needs.

We approach every patient as whole. We find and correct any of the bodies dysfunctions while also learning why the dysfunction happened in the first place. We believe that by working with our patients we can achieve the best results.

The same can be said for performance. Each individual pushing their performance has a goal in mind. This goal can be as broad as looking for safe training strategies, or as specific as gaining range of motion to accomplish a specific task. Big or small we can help our patients achieve their goals and reach their peak.
