Wishing all of our clients a happy and healthy 2021!

Even though 2020 has been a difficult year for many, hopefully you can look back and reflect on some of your accomplishments. Are you moving easier? Are you exercising more? Are you taking time for yourself? If you find you have areas you want to improve, create some 2021 goals.

Just a friendly reminder that the Clinic will be closed this Friday, January 1st.

Today we remember the sacrifices made by those who fought for our country. Thank you for your service, bravery, and strength.

If you’ve recently taken significant time away from a certain sport, and you want to get back into it again, consider the following first. During the first phase of COVID-19 many of us had spent increased time sitting around at home which creates tightness in the hip flexors, long thigh muscle, hamstrings and calves. If you’re not careful in this state, to restore the normal length of these muscles before returning to any activities that involve running, jumping or ballistic-...type movements you could be risking injury. Here are four stretches to address each of these areas. Each stretch should be held gently for 30-60 seconds and repeated 2-3 times. Hip Flexor Stretch Quadricep Stretch Hamstring Stretch Calf Stretch

We will continue to offer virtual appointments through our TeleRehab platform for those who prefer to receive care from their home, or are unable to access treatment in person.

TeleRehab is a proven way for those of you who are in remote areas to conveniently access high quality physiotherapy services. Despite d...oing things differently in this new normal, you can continue to expect a warm, friendly welcome as you enter our spacious clinic, and exceptional care from your practitioner. Thank you for your patience and support over the past several months and in the coming weeks as we navigate our way forward. We are very excited to be reopening our doors and look forward to seeing you soon! https://www.royalcityphysio.com/

Check out these great photos of our physio Mikaela who recently completed her own marathon! She had qualified to compete at the #BostonMarathon this year but due to #COVID19 she decided to do her own personal marathon, around Burnaby. With Stephen on his bike as support crew, as well as friends & family cheering her on, she completed the ‘race’ in an incredible 3 hours & 2 minutes. It was truly inspirational to watch her complete this amazing personal accomplishment. Congratulations Mikaela!!!
