We asked ChatGPT to describe what it’s like living with Post Concussion Syndrome, and we think it summed it up pretty well.

We know how difficult it can be, and that it’s often a silent injury that many people don’t fully understand. This makes it even harder to seek out help and treatment. Our physiotherapist, Natasha Prokop, is trained in concussion rehab and recovery and would love the opportunity to support you if you or someone you know is struggling.

Treatment is no longer “sit in a dark room.” The science around concussion and PCS has changed a lot, and we want people in our community to have access to the most up-to-date information and care.

Have you or someone you know torn your ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) and had reconstruction surgery in the past 9 to 36 months?

UBC’s Musculoskeletal Lab in Vancouver is looking for participants for the SOAR Knee Program — a research-based program designed to help improve knee strength and mobility, reduce pain, and lower the risk of osteoarthritis.

The program is delivered virtually through video conferencing and provides you with exercise education and activity strategies. Participants will also receive a Fitbit activity tracker, which they can keep after the study.

If you’d like to take part or learn more, visit msklab.med.ubc.ca for full details.

Please share with any friends or family who might be interested — the program is available to anyone who can participate online.

Big shoutout to our clinic owner and physiotherapist Jane Cruttenden, who spent her Saturday volunteering at the 2025 Rotary Colour Fest! 🎨🏃‍♀️💪

Jane set up a recovery tent to offer treatments and raise funds—and thanks to all the colourful (and slightly sore) participants, she raised $150 for the Rotary Club!

Between helping runners, hanging with her kids and their friends, and getting covered in colour, it was a day full of good vibes and helping the community. 💙

We love getting involved in local events like this and showing up for the Alberni Valley!
