FACE MASK POLICY UPDATE . As of November 20, 2020, we now require ALL clients to wear either a MEDICAL/SURGICAL grade mask OR a N95/KN95 RESPIRATOR while in our clinic . We decided to make this our new policy due to the recent spike in BC COVID-19 cases and the recommendations for mask use in medical offices as per Dr Bonnie Henry We aren't physicians, but we're up in people's grills for 30-60 mins at a time, so it makes sense to us ... . If you don't have one of these masks, let our admin team know and we can hook you up with one FREE OF CHARGE! . Feel free to leave a comment below, DM us, email, or call of you have any questions . Thanks everyone for continuing to support us and your due diligence! . #facemasks #maskpolicy #clinicupdate #covid19 #safetyfirst #ppe #2ndwave #keepgoingeveryone #wegotthis . . . . https://docksidephysio.com See more

BECAUSE WE WANTED CUPCAKES ... No wait! . Because Jeremy ran 160km this weekend . And look at that folks! He's devouring that baked good like he devoured those kilometers ... . Check out his full Strava route at the end . Well done man, well done . #hedidit #whataguy #slightlycrazythough #endurancerunning #trailrunning #160k #cupcakes #youearnedit #welldone #clinicteam #docksidephysio See more

So here we go! Two guys with two big undertakings . A bit of background first. Jeremy originally signed up for the Whistler Alpine Meadows, a 100mi (160k) trail running race... but then it got cancelled due to the virus that has overstayed its welcome . Since Jeremy is the type of guy who loves a challenge and tests his own limits on a regular basis, he kept his training up and will be doing his own 160km trail run ... . As for Evan, he hasn't biked further than a few clicks over 100km, but he has decided (or rather strongly nudged ) to ride 160km at the same time as J's run . So, we'd like to present to everyone #thedocksidedouble happening this weekend it's going to be interesting for both of us (but mostly J) . Jeremy (@thelotuspt) will be starting his adventure at 10am in and around Gowlland Tod Park this Saturday, and Evan will be hitting the road 6am Sunday to roll between East Sooke Park and Lands End. . TIME GOALS: Jeremy's finish time = 5pm next day (Sunday ) Evan's finish time = 1pm same day . As you can all see, Jeremy is far braver/crazier than Evan!! . For a bit of fun, we'd like to challenge other clinics in #YYJ to do their own #doubletrouble or #doubledip bike/run/swim/whatever this September before the weather starts to go sideways . Tag @docksidephysio in your post! We'd love to see what other crazy clinicians are doing in the city .

HAPPY PRIDE WEEK #YYJ! . I feel like this year, more than ever due to recent events, that the messages of love and inclusivity are extending beyond the the LGBTQ2+ communities... as they should be. .

We need to reflect on our own thoughts and actions, educate ourselves and others, and get a deeper understanding of our fellow humans so we start making changes...

Happy Earth Day to our tiny blue dot . We know COVID-19 has been a very challenging time for humanity, but there have been a lot of positives that have come out of it from an environmental stand point . Numerous cities have been reported improved air quality (NASA has confirmed this via satellite) ... . Sea turtles have been thriving, especially in Florida . The White:tailed eagle is making a comeback in Southern England . Just a few examples! And although this will likely not be permanent change especially when life for humans get back to normal, it does open our eyes further as to our impact . . #earthday #2020 #planetearth #bluedot #silverlining #foodforthought #protectthishouse See more

TeleRehab/"E-Physio" has actually been around for quite some time, but most people have never heard about it . There are a few limitations (mostly the lack of any hands-on treatment), but a tonne of upsides! . Including...... - time savings - increased accessibility - ability to assess home setup - increased client engagement, and - improved client outcomes . If this sounds good to you but you'd like to know more before making the leap, get in touch with us via DM, at 250-590-5840, or [email protected] and we'd be happy to setup a time to chat .
