What is the A*O Ankle Stabilizer? 🦶

The A*O Ankle Stabilizer Brace is designed to provide controlled ankle support while still allowing functional movement. It features removable stays, which help limit excessive inversion and eversion (side-to-side motion), which is a common mechanism of ankle sprains.

This brace is commonly used for:
• Acute ankle sprains
• Chronic ankle instability
• Return-to-sport support
• Injury prevention during activity

The adjustable straps allow for a customized fit, while the lightweight design makes it comfortable to wear in athletic shoes, cowboy boots or daily footwear.

If you’re unsure what ankle support is right for you, our physiotherapy team is happy to help guide you toward the best option for your goals and activity level.

🔥 Heat vs Ice ❄️

Not all injuries are treated the same, in fact, knowing when to use heat vs ice can make a big difference in pain relief and recovery.

❄️ ICE = Calm Things Down
Why it helps:
Ice reduces blood flow, swelling, and pain by calming irritated tissues.

🔥 HEAT = Loosen & Relax
Why it helps:
Heat increases blood flow, relaxes muscles, and improves movement.

When in doubt, ask your therapist and we’ll guide you based on your injury and stage of healing!

✨ Meet Dr. Nicole Fox ✨

We’re excited to reintroduce one of our amazing team members, Dr. Nicole Fox, DC!

Nicole is a chiropractor practicing at our Ponoka location, as well as at another clinic in Lacombe. She brings a strong academic background, having graduated from Palmer West Chiropractic College in 2004, and is passionate about treating patients with a truly holistic, head-to-toe approach. A philosophy that has led to many successes throughout her career.

When she’s not in the clinic, winter months often find Nicole at the rink cheering on her kids, and she’s rarely without family and friends by her side.

In the clinic, you’ll often see Nicole collaborating closely with our physiotherapy team to create thoughtful, personalized treatment plans for each client. Having her with us Tuesdays and Wednesdays is always a highlight! 💙

It is Bell Let’s Talk Day 💬💙

Today is a reminder that mental health matters - every single day.
Checking in on ourselves and each other, having open conversations, and reducing stigma helps create a stronger, more compassionate community.
If you’re struggling, know you’re not alone. If someone you know is struggling, listening can make a world of difference. Small conversations can lead to big changes in so many lives.

Let’s keep talking. Let’s keep supporting. 💙
If you need someone to talk to, let us know!

💫 You may have seen her around the clinic the last couple weeks, so allow us to introduce Emily! 💫

Emily is a second-year Physical Therapy student at the University of Alberta. She completed her Bachelor of Kinesiology at the University of Alberta as well, where she built a strong foundation in how the body moves, heals, and responds to exercise. 💪

Through her education and hands-on experiences, Emily has worked with individuals of all ages, including youth, older adults, and those living with cancer. She is passionate about helping people feel stronger, more capable, confident, and supported as they work toward their personal goals.

Emily also values staying connected to the community and believes in the importance of meaningful and enjoyable activities - both in and out of the clinic. Outside of work and school, she enjoys spending time at the gym, camping, golfing, skiing, hiking, and of course, enjoying a good cup of coffee ☕️

Emily has shared that she is excited and honoured to be completing her six-week placement at Vantage Physiotherapy Clinic, where she looks forward to learning from the team while supporting patients throughout their rehabilitation journey.

We are very happy to have Emily here and proud to be one of the rural options for placements through the University of Alberta 🩵
