Want to know more about our newest physio, Brandon Craipley? Come see him at the clinic! (Also, read his bio below.)

Brandon is originally from Alberta and completed his undergraduate degree in Biomedical Sciences at the University of Ottawa, where he worked at a sports clinic and discovered a passion for long-distance running. He continued to pursue this interest while earning his Master of Physical Therapy at the University of Western Ontario, competing in several long-distance races along the way.

Brandon’s practice is grounded in evidence-based care, integrating the latest research with clinical expertise to deliver individualized and effective treatments. He takes the time to listen and understand each person’s unique story, fostering a supportive and collaborative environment to create treatment plans tailored to their goals and lifestyle. By combining hands-on techniques, personalized exercise programs, and education that supports long-term self-care, Brandon is dedicated to helping people move with confidence and reach their full potential.

Outside the clinic, Brandon continues to compete in long-distance running events, including marathons, and is currently training for his first Ironman 70.3 in Victoria. He also enjoys CrossFit, pickleball, skiing, travelling, hiking, and spending time with his dogs.

Today, on National Truth and Reconciliation Day, we take pause to remember the children who never returned home, and honour the strength and resilience of those who did.

We use today to listen, to learn, and to reflect.

We're happy to let you all know that we've added a new physio to the team!

Everyone, meet Brandon Craipley. Brandon comes to us from Ontario, and is a runner, dog lover (no, the dog will not be coming to work with him...), and all around good guy.

He starts with us on the week of October 6th. If you'd like to meet him, call quickly - we've got a feeling his schedule won't be clear for long!

in our latest episode of 'Where is your physio?', Jordan heads to the US for a pair of games with the Rugby Canada men's national team. After recently qualifying for the Rugby World Cup , they take on Tonga in Salt Lake City, UT this Saturday.

For those who haven't been keeping up, the women's side demolished Australia in the quarters and is into the semifinals of their Rugby World Cup! Up next, New Zealand on Friday!

We’ve missed her, but she’ll be back soon!

We’re so happy to announce that Andrea Nikic, the first physio to join our team back in 2018, is returning from maternity leave in September!

Andrea sees all kinds of patients and treats all types of conditions, including pelvic floor-related issues. She is also a certified yoga instructor, and an all-around awesome person to have in the clinic!

Andrea is back starting September 22nd, and her schedule is open for booking now!

When the waiting room for your travel connection looks like this, it's hard to complain.

It's been a beautiful BC summer, we hope you had a great one. Happy Labour Day weekend, we'll see you on the other side!

Had one of those days the other day - the washing machine broke, I found a crack in the car windshield, everything seemed to be heading in the wrong direction.

After this, I felt much better.

Sometimes we all need a reminder that doing something you love, especially if it's physical, can really help. Exercise really is medicine.

We're often asked a very thought-provoking question: Why do so many different kinds of treatment seem to work for pain?

It's a long and complicated answer, but the short version is that generally, our bodies know how to heal themselves. Our job as therapists is to facilitate that - manual therapy, dry needling, and education are all simply some of the tools we use.

You can add one more thing to that list - breathing! A research review done in 2024 shows that breathing exercises significantly reduced pain intensity and improved physical disability in people with low back pain. The most effective protocols involved breathing resistance exercises performed for 30 to 50 minutes, 3 to 5 times per week, for more than 4 weeks. That's quite a lot, but the take home message is important: we all have the tools to help ourselves when we're hurting!

Tell me there's a runner in the house without telling me there's a runner in the house.

There is some evidence to suggest that having multiple pairs of shoes can be a useful strategy for injury prevention in runners. One study found that people did well when wearing different kinds of shoes for different types of run workouts (eg. lighter shoes for faster runs, cushier shoes for long runs). That study was funded by a running shoe company, so take it with a grain of salt - but interesting nonetheless.

Even though running shoe design and philosophy has changed a ton over the past decade, shoe choice remains important for those running consistently. Thank you Frontrunners Westshore for being there to help us sort through all the madness!
