Seaside Kinnection Kinesiology

We're back!! After speaking to the Office of the Provincial Health Officer, the Ministry of Health, and WorkSafe BC, BCAK has officially announced that Kinesiologists in BC can return to physical appointments as of TODAY, MAY 25th! I am SO excited to get back into the clinic - myself, along with the other professionals in the clinic, are working to ensure the safety of everyone by following very strict protocols, practicing physical distancing and adhering to provincial g...uidelines. Contact me ASAP to slide into my schedule! I look forward to seeing you again and helping you hop back into, or refreshing your workout and rehab plans! I will continue offering telehealth appointments to anyone who would prefer to physically stay out of the clinic at this time!

I’ve been quiet... Some of you might not know, I’ve stepped into a full-time residential support worker role to help out as best as I can during this trying time. BUT I am still available as a kinesiologist and personal trainer via telehealth appointments! ... Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you you’re in pain or need some help staying active at home! Message me and we can chat FREE OF CHARGE about how telehealth appointments might be able to help you and your specific situation! Stay active, stay healthy

No gym? No problem! Anyone who knows me, knows that my preferred form of physical activity is in the gym with weights in my hands! Without access to my usual equipment, this is what my workouts are looking like lately... not super ideal but it is better than nothing! ... Research published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine shows that even those who partake in low levels of activity have a 28% lower risk of death compared to those who get no exercise! Times are tough, but so are you - in your home, your yard, our beautiful trails; stay active!

As of today, March 18th, 2020, our clinic is closing until further notice to ensure the safety of our clients, health professionals, and our community as a whole. During this time I’d like to extend my services online for anyone who may need/want them! With most public gyms closing, I want to stress that this doesn’t mean you can no longer be active. Take advantage of our beautiful outdoors, or reach out to me if you need some home workout ideas - I’ll do my best to keep you ...updated with how I’m staying active without my gym! Majority of the active rehabilitation programs that I’ve produced are made for clients to be able to do them in the comfort of their own homes, so there’s no excuses! Stay healthy, stay active.

A short and sweet shout out to all of the strong, resilient, and beautiful women in my life. My family, my friends, the boss women at the clinic, my professors and instructors, and every single woman I've met along the way - thank you for your continued support and love. We are so strong together. Happy International Women's Day!...
