🔥 Fire Cupping & Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) 🔥

Fire cupping is a time-honoured therapy rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, used to support healing, circulation, and balance in the body.

Using gentle suction, cups are placed on the skin to help:
• Increase blood flow
• Release muscle tension
• Reduce pain and stiffness
• Support detoxification
• Calm the nervous system

In TCM, cupping helps move Qi (energy) and blood, clearing stagnation that can contribute to pain, stress, and fatigue. Temporary circular marks are normal and typically fade within a few days.

👉 Book fire cupping with our acupuncturists S**a and see if this therapy is right for you.

KT Taping with Alexia PT – Support, Prevent, Recover

At Coastal, our physiotherapy team is proud to offer Kinesiology Taping (KT Taping) with Alexia PT to support your recovery, prevent injuries, and enhance rehabilitation. KT tape is a flexible, therapeutic tape applied to muscles and joints to help:

• Reduce pain and inflammation
• Support muscles during activity
• Improve circulation and lymphatic flow
• Enhance joint stability without limiting movement
• Assist in injury prevention and postural correction

Our physio team uses KT taping as part of personalized treatment plans. Whether you’re recovering from a sports injury, managing chronic muscle tension, or looking to prevent future injuries, KT tape can help your body move more comfortably and safely.

With Alexia PT’s expertise, the tape is applied strategically to target the right muscles and joints, complementing exercises, manual therapy, and rehab programs for optimal results.

✨ Ask about KT taping at your next physiotherapy session and see how it can support your recovery journey!

💙 Heritage Day & Family Day in Nova Scotia 💙

Today we celebrate Heritage Day, a reminder to honour the people, cultures, and stories that shaped our province — and it’s also a day to slow down and spend time with the people who matter most.

The 2026 Heritage Day Honouree, Joseph Willie Comeau, is recognized for his lasting contributions to Acadian culture, language, and community leadership in Nova Scotia. His work helped preserve Acadian identity and strengthened community connections that continue to be felt today.

At Halifax Coastal Sports & Wellness, family, community, and heritage are at the heart of what we do. Whether it’s supporting generations of families, giving back locally, or caring for the whole person — these values guide our work every day.

Wishing you a meaningful Heritage Day and a warm Family Day spent together 🤍

🤸‍♀️ Giving Back to the Sport That Shaped Us 🤍

This past weekend, Suzanne, DJ, and Kali were proud to be at the Taiso Gymnastics Competition, providing sports medical coverage and supporting the athletes and coaches who make this community so special.

DJ, who’s currently working toward his Sports Massage Fellowship, loved being on the floor giving back to the sport and community we care so deeply about 💪

Kali wears two hats close to her heart — she’s a full-time competitive coach with Taiso and also works behind the scenes as part of Coastal’s backend financial administration. Being able to support athletes both on and off the floor is something she’s incredibly passionate about.

Suzanne has provided sports medical coverage for this competition for 18 years, and Taiso remains especially meaningful to her — she competed for Taiso herself up until the age of 28. Full-circle moments like this never get old 🤍

Giving back through sports medical coverage is at the core of what we do at Coastal, and we’re proud to continue supporting local sport and community.

💪 Elbow Pain & Dysfunction? Physio Can Help.

Elbow pain isn’t just an “arm issue” — it can affect your grip, training, work, and daily life. Whether it’s gradual or sudden, it’s a sign something needs attention.

Common causes we see:
👉 Tennis or golfer’s elbow
👉 Overuse & repetitive strain
👉 Lifting or training-related injuries
👉 Desk, tool, or sport-specific load issues
👉 Referred pain from shoulder or wrist mechanics

How physiotherapy helps:
✔️ Identifies the root cause (not just the painful spot)
✔️ Reduces pain and irritation
✔️ Restores strength, grip, and load tolerance
✔️ Improves movement through the elbow, shoulder & wrist
✔️ Builds a plan to prevent flare-ups

At Coastal, our physios take a full-body approach — because elbows don’t work in isolation. Whether you’re an athlete, a lifter, or dealing with work-related strain, we’ll help you move with confidence again.

Did you know cosmetic acupuncture can go beyond fine needles?

At Coastal, S**a incorporates Gua Sha facial treatments into her cosmetic acupuncture sessions to support healthy, glowing skin—naturally.

🌿 How Gua Sha Benefits the Face
• Promotes lymphatic drainage and reduces puffiness
• Improves circulation for a brighter complexion
• Helps release facial tension (jaw, brow, neck)
• Supports collagen production over time
• Encourages smoother, more lifted-looking skin

S**a’s cosmetic acupuncture treatments may include:
✨ Fine, tiny needles
✨ Gua Sha facial techniques
✨ LED light therapy

Together, these modalities support skin health, tone, and overall facial balance—without harsh interventions.

A holistic approach to feeling refreshed, supported, and radiant 💫

Pelvic Health Physiotherapy isn’t just for women.
Yes — men have a pelvic floor too!

At our clinic, men’s pelvic health physiotherapy is with Gillian Lirette, our highly experienced pelvic health physio with 20 years of experience in pelvic health care.

Pelvic health physio for men focuses on the muscles, nerves, and joints that support your bladder, bowel, s*xual function, and core strength.

Men commonly book pelvic health physio for:
• Bladder leakage or urgency
• Pelvic, groin, testicular, or tailbone pain
• Erectile dysfunction or pain with s*x
• Pain with sitting or cycling
• Post-prostate surgery rehab
• Core weakness or lingering low back pain
• Bowel issues (constipation, straining, control)

What’s included in an appointment?
✔️ Thorough assessment (movement, posture, breathing, core)
✔️ Pelvic floor muscle assessment only if appropriate & consented
✔️ Education — what’s actually going on and why
✔️ Tailored exercise & rehab plan
✔️ Strategies for bladder, bowel, and s*xual health
✔️ A private, respectful, judgement-free space

Pelvic issues are common — and you don’t have to deal with them alone.
