Sooke Exercise Therapy

Been a little over a week since I got to spend 4 incredible days in Montreal with my colleagues and friends over at What an amazing group of humans!

Getting to collaborate, practice and learn (relearn) all things applied neurology, S&C and rehab was an experience I’ll appreciate for a long time. The level of knowledge, applied experience and skill in the room was next level. Honoured to be included in that group.

Also, thankful to present a session on ways to integrate neuroreconditioning into training youth athletes in a team setting. Was a privelage to share the ways we integrate Recon alongside conventional training as a way to help our youth better manage the stressors/challenges facing this generation of athlete while improving sport outcomes. Lots of laughs were had and numerous participants left feeling excited about ways they could integrate this into their communities.

If you’re interested in knowing more about an NeuroReconditioning approach to training, send us a message and we’d be happy to help 🙂

For the 4th year in a row, Team SET members Jon and Chris along with an extended community of friends and family, ran the 20km relay! Well run event, incredible weather and wonderful community of athletes ranging in age from 10-70!

Thankful to have the freedom to participate in events such as these in beautiful, safe spaces, with people we love and respect 🙂

Little snapshot of the last three sessions with U13A integrated programs!

Youth Athlete Development (YAD) isn’t about tossing a giant motor on a developing system and see what happens, hope they survive. It’s about creating space and to help the athletes ‘find’ their body, acquire movement and learn to move in novel ways.

Discovering how to move well (more complete ranges) not just fast, creating stillness and fixed points, learning to not just accelerate but also decelerate and understand how their body can move in a more complete way is not just injury prevention, but performance enhancing!

And yes, we also do conditioning bouts 🙃😉

If you’re wanting to know about YAD for your young there or program, send us a message and we’re happy to chat 🙂

This past weekend Jon and Chris took on 30km trail race! With a final distance of 32km, 960m of vertical and running in 26-27deg weather, it was a challenge to complete!

Chris finished with an 8th place in a very competitive age group and Jon met all his personal and time goals!

Do you have any upcoming events or races this summer? We’d love to hear about it! Drop a comment below or send us a message 🙂

June is Athletic Therapy Month! At SET we are proud to have offered Athletic Therapy Services to the Sooke community since 2015!

Fun fact: did you know ATs are trained both in field side care and clinical rehab? This combination of training allows for a comprehensive approach in your return to work and play!

Also, did you know that SET is home to not 1 but 2 Neuro Reconditioning Practitioners? Both Jon and Sheena have completed Comprehensive R1-3 Program requiring months of training and applied practice!

If you have a sticking point in your current training, have an injury that is limiting progress or preventing you from starting your sport/fitness/healthy living activity, send us a message and see how Athletic Therapy can help 🙂

Client shout out!
Meet Jessie, all around athlete, and genuinely awesome human!

We met Jessie back in 2023 after he experienced a significant back injury leaving him unable to walk his hallway without intense pain…..and this wasn’t the first time it had happened. Prior to his injury, he was an avid runner, cyclist and had an extensive background in competitive break dancing!

After going through an extensive history and assessment, we were able to determine the root cause of his pain, not just the current reason for it, and laid out a plan to get him back to activity! Over the course of three months, using an approach to rehab and training we were able to manage minor relapses while progressing his training eventually getting him back on a bike!

Jessie ended up moving to Vancouver and through 2024 was able to continue to implement what was learned in the clinic and progressed his training without incident! He competed in high speed bike courier races, returned to running and this weekend our paths crossed again at where he completed the 50km!!!!

So incredibly proud to be part of his journey and looking forward to hearing about future success!

If you’re feeling stuck or frustrated by recurrent injury or lack of progress in your training, send us a message or book an assessment at set.janeapp.com 🙂
