🏌️‍♂️ Your swing doesn’t have to end with summer.

Golf season is winding down—but shoulder strain, lower-back stiffness, and hip mobility issues don’t take the winter off. Our sports therapy team works with golfers at all levels to:
✅ Improve rotational power
✅ Protect shoulders & spine
✅ Build a golf-specific strength plan

The off-season is the perfect time to get ahead—so your first swing next spring feels better than your last one this year.

Shoulder pain holding you back?

The shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body—which also makes it one of the most vulnerable. Common injuries we see include:
Rotator cuff strains/tears – often linked to overhead sports like baseball, tennis, or swimming.

Labrum injuries – common in athletes who throw, lift heavy, or take impact through the shoulder.

Impingement and bursitis – frequently caused by repetitive overhead movements, poor posture, or muscular imbalance.

At Impulse Sport Therapeutics, our team works together to get you moving pain-free:

🏋️Physiotherapy: individualized exercise programs to restore mobility and stability.

💪 Chiropractic care: hands-on myofascial and active release therapy to reduce tension and improve mechanics.

⚽️ Sports therapy & rehab: functional strength and mobility training to prevent recurrence and get you back to your sport.

👉 Whether it’s serving, swimming, throwing, or just reaching overhead without pain, we’ll help you get your shoulder working the way it should.

📅 Book with our team today and take the first step to recovery.

💥 Headaches can be more than just “a headache.” Did you know there are different types, each with their own causes and solutions?
👉 Tension headaches – often from tight neck and shoulder muscles, poor posture, or stress.
👉 Migraine headaches – can be triggered by stress, hormonal changes, or certain foods.
👉 Cervicogenic headaches – referred pain from the neck and upper spine.
👉 Cluster headaches – intense, one-sided headaches that come in cycles.
At Impulse Sport Therapeutics, our chiropractors look deeper than just the pain. Through hands-on treatments like Active Release Techniques (ART) and personalized exercises, we work to reduce muscle tension, improve mobility, and address the root causes of recurring headaches.
✨ Whether it’s posture, stress, or movement patterns, we’ll help you find lasting relief and tools to manage headaches naturally.
📅 Book your appointment today and let’s get you back to moving and feeling your best.

🍂 The summer season is wrapping up and fall routines are starting to settle in. This transition period is the perfect time to focus on your health, recovery, and performance.
Whether you’re:
✅ Getting ready for winter sports
✅ Building an off-season performance plan
✅ Or prioritizing injury prevention and regular care
— now is the time to set yourself up for success.
Don’t forget: most extended health benefits reset on January 1st. That means there are only a few months left to make the most of your coverage before it renews. ⏳
Let’s keep you moving strong into the new season. Book your next appointment at Impulse Sport Therapeutics West Vancouver today!

❄️ Stay Safe in the Snow, West Van! ❄️

Winter weather is here, and with icy sidewalks and snowy roads, it's important to take precautions to prevent injuries. Here are some quick tips to stay safe:

🚶‍♂️ Avoid Slips & Falls:
✔️ Wear footwear with good traction.
✔️ Take small, careful steps—think "penguin walk" on ice!
✔️ Use handrails on stairs and watch for black ice.
✔️ Keep your driveway and walkways clear with salt or sand.

🚗 Drive with Caution:
✔️ Slow down and increase your following distance.
✔️ Avoid sudden braking or sharp turns.
✔️ Check your winter tires and keep an emergency kit in your car.

⛄ Shovel Smarter, Not Harder:
✔️ Warm up before heading outside to prevent muscle strain.
✔️ Push snow instead of lifting when possible.
✔️ Lift with your legs, not your back.
✔️ Take breaks and stay hydrated.

If winter takes a toll on your body—whether from a slip, strain, or stiff muscles—we’re here to help! Our team at Impulse Sport Therapeutics offers chiropractic, massage therapy, and physiotherapy to keep you moving safely all season long.

❄️ Stay safe and take care out there! ❄️
