Things physios say at least 10 times a day 👇😅

From “Let’s do one more for good measure” (which really means three) to “Don’t forget to breathe,” these are the classics you have probably heard if you have ever been to physio.

We say them because they work, and because we care about helping you move better, feel stronger, and understand your body along the way. 💪

Jake hit the ice with Oceanside Minor Hockey for a concussion education seminar 🏒🧠

Education like this is key to keeping athletes healthy and confident on and off the ice. 🙌

Big thanks to Oceanside Minor Hockey for having us and for prioritizing player health and safety. 👏

🎉 (Belated!) Happy Birthday to Laura Churchill, Physiotherapist 🩵

October has been packed with birthdays around here — and we couldn’t forget to celebrate another amazing teammate: Laura Churchill! ⚽🌿

Laura’s been part of our Pacific Station team for just over a year now, and this past year she’s truly stepped into her stride — bringing incredible value not just to our clinic, but to the broader community as well.

When she’s not in the clinic helping patients move and feel their best, you’ll likely find her outdoors, on the soccer field, or diving into her research (yes, she’s got that PhD-level brain working behind the scenes 🧠).

Laura, we’re so grateful for your warmth, your curiosity, and your commitment to care. Wishing you the very best for the next lap around the sun ☀️ — we know it’s going to be an amazing one for you and your family.

Your Pacific Station teammates appreciate you more than you know — everyone drop a little ❤️ to wish Laura a happy (belated) birthday!

🎉 Happy Birthday to the one and only Jannel Flores, Physiotherapist 🩵

The past 365 days have been an incredible journey for Jannel — professionally and personally. From building deep roots in our Parksville community, to leveling up her clinical game (👀 exciting pelvic floor things on the horizon!), to some life milestones 🏔️ — it’s been an amazing year.

We already know the next 365 days will be even bigger and brighter. 🌞

Jannel continues to blossom into the kind, skilled, and community-minded teammate (and healthcare pillar!) that makes our Parksville team so special.

Your teammates love you, Jannel — thanks for bringing the tunes 🎧, the laughs, and the energy every single day. Everyone drop a little ❤️ in the comments to wish her the best year yet!

Deadlifts as rehab? You bet 💪🤔

A lot of people think deadlifts are dangerous for your back, but the truth is very different. With the right coaching, research shows deadlifts actually make your spine stronger and more resilient.

Why they protect you: they build hip and spinal strength, improve lifting mechanics, increase tissue tolerance to load, and boost your confidence in movement. That is a win all around.

Deadlifts are not just for athletes. They are for anyone who wants to move better, stay strong, and protect their back in everyday life.

Sometimes growth happens in the gym.
Sometimes it happens around a laptop on a rainy weekend morning. ☔

Practice-Changing Principles of Strength & Conditioning for Physios — in-service with Dr. Clare Minshull. 💪

Big thanks to our team who showed up, coffees in hand, and put in a little bit of mental sweat equity to keep sharpening their craft. 👏

Forward thinking. Forward movement. 🏃‍♂️

🎉 Happy Birthday, Tara! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating our Head of Admin, the glue that helps keep so much of Advanced running smoothly together — the one and only Tara Hannibal! 💙

Tara’s been with us since day one, and across the entire team — physios, chiros, AT’s, kins, admin, and patients alike — there’s a ton of love for her. She runs the front lines at our Pacific Station clinic with poise, efficiency, and a sense of humour that keeps everyone smiling.

Outside the clinic, Tara’s a proud Nanaimo girl 🇨🇦 who wears many hats: hockey mom 🏒, community pillar, country-music fan 🤠, and summer paddleboarder ☀️🛶. She’s also a fierce competitor at our annual Beer Olympics 🍻 (we’ll get ’em next year, Tara 😉).

So on this Saturday, we’re hoping she’s surrounded by family, friends, laughter — maybe a win 🏆 — and at least a few well-earned minutes with her feet up.

We love you, Tara. Thanks for everything you do for our clinics, our patients, and our team. 💙
