1 YEAR. This photo was a year ago today. I stood in an empty gym about to close the clinic due to the COVID-19 pandemic mandated orders. I had sat in the office working on last minute phone calls and trying to plan for this unfamiliar and unknown territory just prior to this photo. Many clients had cancelled themselves out due to fear and school closures already. I had just finished scrubbing the clinic rooms from top to bottom and then found myself upstairs wondering a...round feeling very lost. The building was empty - no music, no energy, and no gym members - a rarity. I thought... two weeks and we can get back to in person clinic care. Like many business owners, I had no guidance, minimal information and no idea how to close. And little did I know what was to actually come over the next year: convert to virtual for 6 weeks, convert to a hybrid model, changes in staffing, and changes in our structure of clinic home, but what remained consistent was my clients. The uncertainty, significant financial impact and stress of it all has still not sunk in. However, I am so incredibly grateful for our client family who has been amazing these past 12 months. The support, cooperation with protocols and procedures as well as compassion and understanding has been so appreciated. Knowing my clients have embraced the in this together with me has really helped me navigate such an unfamiliar territory all while feeling supported. I have been saying one day at a time for 365 days now. Will keep this motto for the next 365 if need be, but I sure hope COVID-19 can be a thing of the past soon.

FEATURE FRIDAY Miss Ally Ally has been devoted to working on keeping her body pain free and injury free since the clinic’s opening. We have developed a great client-practitioner relationship to work on keeping her dancing through the last three years.... Ally has been working on dance examinations and virtual competition preparation through the COVID-19 pandemic. I have been so proud of Ally through the years with her commitment to regular clinic attendance enabling her to continue to dance at a competitive level. Wishing you all the best Ally for the remainder of this season.

FEATURE FRIDAY Miss Kaitlyn Kaitlyn has been working hard this past season to keep her body pain free and injury free. Kaitlyn has consistently attended at the clinic to work on a proactive approach and maintaining improvements from past physical concerns. ... With the amount of physical demand for tumbling at cheer, it is important to continually work on core strength and lumbar spine stability and mobility. Despite an altered season, clients can make great gains in tumbling and performance with a mobility and strength program specific to cheer. Great job Kaitlyn on taking a serious interest in Physiotherapy and working continuously on staying healthy this cheer season.

One Day At A Time. This is said over and over again at the clinic. Change takes time. Healing takes time. Fitness goals take time. Pandemic recovery will take time. As everyone has experienced change through 2020, it has been evident that adapting to change has been difficult.... Whatever the goal or change at hand, especially when it comes to the body, will take time to see a noticeable change in strength, range of motion, pain, alignment, and posture. Here’s your weekend reminder to take it one day at a time, stay focused on your goals and embrace the change. #onedayatatime #changes #goalsetting

Circa November 2018: It seems like a lifetime ago since the clinic opened. In a short two years there have been so many changes and challenges, including working to survive a pandemic as a small business owner. I look back to only see how far I have come. And it’s been amazing meeting so many wonderful people and seeing the growth of the clinic. I could not have done it without the support of our clients, followers, and supporters. Thank you so much! Looking forward to w...hat the future holds. -Sara #lookingbacktolookforward #changeisgood #firsttreatmentroom #thankyouforyoursupport #empowerphysioyqr #physioregina #eastregina #yqr #yqrsmallbusinesses #dancers #dancephysio
