Working toward any climbing goals this summer? Let us know in the comments! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #climbing #climbinglife #bouldering

Almost forgot to give a shout out to Michael Li, And as he told us, and the Sun Run results verify, he is the fastest Michael Li in Vancouver with a time of 51 min and 12 seconds! If you know a faster Michael, let us know 😉 Also, @melpham_, good job on running and finishing, but who doesn't like to be seen all sweat and therefore we have no pictures of her. Stay safe, stay strong, stay active, everyone! #cparkphysio #sunrun #runninglife

Spring-time runs call into question some iffy terrain. Sometimes all you can do is build up your muscle stability and control to be ready for just about anything life throws at you.

It's that time again... time to get back into running shape for all those races coming up. Come in and talk to your physiotherapist to see how we can help you get on track for your running season.

Merry Christmas, everyone, from all the staff at Central Park Physiotherapy! Thank you for another great year at the clinic.it has been a crazy year with COVID, but we've made it through! Merry Christmas. And to all a good night! We are closed Christmas Day and New Year's day, but otherwise we are open for the holidays! #cparkphysio #merrychristmas #thankful

Find ways to keep active this winter! West Vancouver has just opened a new Trestle Bridge that they have light up for Christmas! Located on thr end of Chippendale Road just off the Cypress bowl highway. Winter may be a cold, and often wet, time in Vancouver; but there are still many rings to do. Change up your exercise routine to avoid over training the same muscles, the same way, all the time. This will help you get ready to train hard in the new year! #cparkphysio #bcparks #westvancouver #cypress #vancity

Enjoy those last few days of sunshine! These days won't last. Then it's time to gear up for winter and winter sports. Winter is also a great time to rest from the sports you were doing throughout the spring, summer, and autumn. Let your body rest, recooperate, and adapt to new exercises and activities and get yourself ready for next year's goals. Let us know if we can help you get ready for next year's physical activity goals! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physio #goalsetting #sunshine #beautifulbc

No time for exercise? NEVER! Sometimes it's just finding creative ways to fit it into your life. For me.... it's lower leg control and strengthening during mopping. And it's easier on my back 😁 For those that want to try: 1) Lateral shuffles (6 x 1 hallway) 2) Skating (10 x kitchen floor) (Careful not to slip) #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #exerciseforlife #cleaninghacks

Most people have fairly good thigh muscle strength, but does that mean you have good control of those muscles? NOT NECESSARILY! Use this exercise to help stabilize and control your knee in the forward and backwards plane of movement! Protect those joints from injury! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #knee #legworkout #stability

Depends who you ask! But there are about 10 muscles within the foot and ankle, and 19 within the foot itself. How well these muscles work makes a big differences on your walking, as well as your alignment all the way to your head. Wondering about your feet and if they are strong? Our physios can help you with that! Book online through the link in our bio! Want to learn more about exercises and your body? Check out our YouTube channel: "Central Park Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Clinic" #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #feet #barefoot #muscles

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result." - quote of uncertain origin Sometimes, doing the same thing over and over causes stress on the body in the same way until injury occurs. Switching up the exercises you do, the intensity, and/or duration can help prevent injury and develop a more balanced body. #cparkphysio #intervaltraining #exercise

EVEN MY WATCH IS TELLING ME TO REST! Don't forget, as much as you need to push yourself when you train, there is equally a need to rest properly and not over-train your body. Rest is part of training too. Many issues can arise from over training. You actually lose on your strength and muscle gains if you over train your body. It can also lead to decreased immune response depending on how much you over do it. #cparkphysio #restday #recovery #corosglobal #physiotherapy

Sorry, couldn't resist the pun! But we all need someone to do things with us, work with us, guide us, and to encourage us to do the things that can be harder. So if you need some help getting in shape, find a buddy to jeep you accountable to your goals. It makes a world of difference. Then you'll also have someone to celebrate with when you've achieved those goals. If you need any help with goal setting or getting started on your fitness journey, we would be more than glad to help. We've got lots of therapists dedicated to helping you get where you want to be Stay safe, strong, stay active! And stay cool this weekend! #cparkphysio #partnerincrime #ducks #bcparks

The weather is great and it's June! Which means bike to work month. How conditioned are you for some biking?

That way, you'll be able to enjoy biking all summer long! Btw, anyone know where this clip was taken? #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #activelifestyle #biketowork #commute #sunshinetherapy #vancouverbc #vancitybuzz

Found this plaque upstairs and thought it was interesting. Now, in no way do we advocate "smoking, drinking, or kissing maids". But it does make you wonder, have you been "romping and playing"? Living your life to the full, or have you been stuck, unable to do the things you love for some reason? Here at Central Park Physiotherapy, we hope that no physical ailment will keep you from living a full life. Our therapists are committed to work with you to reach your goals and to getting you back to.... to your life! So here's to staying safe, staying strong, and staying active #cparkphysio #healthylifestyle #physiotherapy #getoutthere #livelife

Sometimes you need to fit your exercise into your day how ever you can. Playgrounds can be a great place to get some exercise - for kids and adults (who act like kids sometimes) Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and the beautiful sunshine! Stay strong, stay safe, stay active! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #exercise #playgroundfun #stayactive

Thank you, mom, for carrying us when we couldn't walk for ourselves, for building us to be who we are today. Have a wonderful mother's day, everyone! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #mothersday #mom

Guess that Physio AGM's are more interesting! A great way to finish off an AGM: cocktail making class! Hope you're enjoying your weekend as much as we physios are! Stay safe, stay strong, stay active! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physio #livelifelavishly #agm #cocktails

Exercise comes in a lot of forms: for some, a walk around the park admiring the cherry blossoms is enough; for kids, it could be running around on the playground; for parents, it can be chasing those energetic kids around 😀 Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and everyone is enjoy the beautiful sunshine. Stay safe, stay strong, stay active #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #cherryblossom #stayactive #yvr #sunshinetherapy #dailyhivevancouver

While exercise is important, rest is part of training as well! Hope everyone is finding a chance to relax and restore themselves this Easter long weekend. #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #restday #easter #cherryblossom #cherryblossoms

This is what happens when the doors close at Central Park Physio Clinic. Physio fun! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #keepitreal #exercise #vert #jump

Ever try a polar dip? Its certainly refreshing! There are a lot of benefits to doing cryotherapy (fancy way of saying using ice/cold) for your injuries. It can help with reduced swelling and to some extent limit soreness in muscles post-exercise. But, heat can also be helpful for your injuries, it helps increase blood flow to bring nutrients to your injuries and helps to relax tense muscles. So which is right for your injuries? Depends on where you are in your healing stages and what the injury is. Come chat with us and find out. #cparkphysio #cold #polarbearswim #physiotherapy #beautifulbc #vancitybuzz #getoutside

Is running barefoot or with minimalist running shoes a good idea? Come check out our new video on YouTube discussing the topic: https://youtu.be/M3Raih5_TsA You'll discover there are muscles in your feet you didn't know you had once you try running barefoot. #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #calves #feet #barefoot #footwear #strength

Got a new video coming your way on our YouTube channel: Central Park Physiotherapy Clinic We are talking about barefoot running. Is/was it just a fad, or is there something to it? Stay tuned for when it goes live! #cparkphysio #barefoot #physiotherapy #exercise #running #runningismytherapy

"Ahh, the weather is bad!" "I didn't get enough sleep" "I just don't feel motivated" Sometimes there's just too many reasons to not do what you need to do. But if you don't do what you need to, you make yourself into a weaker version of yourself. Choose to do what makes you into the person you want to be and your mind will follow your actions. The weather wasn't great today, but choosing to go out anyway allowed me to see something beautiful. #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #beautifulbc #dailyhivevancouver #raincouver #waterfall #getoutdoors #bcparks

It's amazing what the body can do if you train it! Some goals take days, some take months, and some years. But perseverance and hardwork pay off. Any goals you are scrambling to achieve before the end of 2020? Or are you looking into new goals for the coming 2021? Let us know in the comments below! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #flexibility #goalsetting #bodyart #2020goals

No maybe you don't need to be as flexible as @joe.ann_ , but maybe you have a hard to scratch spot on your back? Or those toes are getting every farther away. Come see what is limiting your flexibility. I'd it muscular tightness? Shortened ligaments? Neural tension? Let us figure it out with you! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #splits #flexibility #goalsetting

Strength is pretty useless unless you can use it in the range that you need it. See how we can get you the strength you want and the flexibility you need to do whatever you want to get out and do.

Things we can learn about Physiotherapy treatment from children 1) Stay curious - do not assume that you know enough, keep researching and looking closely and deeply at things 2) Slow down - there are so many things that we miss if we rush an assessment and end up not truly dealing with the underlying issue.  3) No biases - we have to come at things with an open mind.  There are so many possibilities for why things are how they are; who is to say that one is correct if you haven't considered other possibilities.  Don't let your biases direct your sessions.   4) See beauty and joy in simple things - a small bit of progress, a little smile, let them give you joy and see beauty in yourself and others #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #healthylifestyle #burnabynow #centralpark #attitudeofgratitude #bcparks #dailyhivevancouver #lessonslearned #childlike #burnabyparks

WHY YES IT IS!!! 😀 We are excited to announce that we are reopening our office on May 19th 2020.✋ Due to the continuing COVID-19 situation, we will be committed to taking all of the necessary precautions to create a safe environment for our clients and our team. - We ask that each client please bring a face mask for yourself and please bring your own change of clothes to wear during the appointment (eg. shorts, t-shirt or tank top) - To implement social distancing, clients alone will only be allowed to wait in our waiting room (exceptions may be accepted if a client needs special assistance) - All staff members will be required to wear face masks and will perform frequent hand washing and sanitizing of physiotherapy equipment and other office surfaces - Plexiglass has already been installed at the front desk and various signage/markings on the floor will help direct clients in the safest manner - We have modified our appointments to reduce social contact and promote social distancing After our reopening, Telehealth Online Video Visits will remain available as an alternative to visiting our office. For any clients who show any signs of cold or flu like symptoms, if you have been in contact with someone with these symptoms or if you have travelled outside of the province in the last 14 days, we ask that you please refrain from visiting our office. You are welcome to book an Online Telehealth Video Visit with one of our physiotherapists who will still be able to assess and give advice on treatment options. To book an appointment: - Please visit our website (link in bio) - Or call our office. There will be front desk staff in the office one week prior to reopening (the week of May 11th 2020).

Getting the whole family together to exercise! My daughter has seen us exercising in the house and now, whenever she sees us pull out the yoga mat, she'll ask to do "exercise?" With the extra time at home, it's a great time to start building some healthy habits. And it often gets easier when you have someone to be accountable to! If you need any tips from fixing those aches and pains to running your next marathon, just follow the link in our bio to book with one of our physiotherapists. We are offering Telehealth to make sure we are there for our clients even during this pandemic. Also, if you have any exercises you'd like to see us demo, leave it in the comments below and we'll sed what we can do for you. #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #exercisemotivation #fitnessmotivation #healthylifestyle #telehealth #covid #quarantinelife #covid_19 #babyexercise #familytime #family #toocute #aww

Told you I'd work on my latte art! It's my way of feeling like things are normal again - almost like going to a coffee shop. I know everyone is getting used to this new norm, and everyone has different ways to manage. Central Park wants to help: we are offering Telehealth to our patients. So if you have any aches or pains, follow the link in our bio and book in with one of our physiotherapists. We can't wait for the COVID-19 crisis to be over so we can open our doors to everyone again! Stay strong, stay safe, stay active! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #exercisemotivation #fitnessmotivation #healthylifestyle #telehealth #workingfromhome #covid #quarantinelife #coffee #latteart #coffeelover #coffeelovers

Here are a few exercises you can do for your lower body right in the comfort of your own home (flip through the other images in the post to see a video demo). It's a great way to get some bigger muscle groups working so that you burn more calories throughout the day. 1) Foot taps - use this one to boost your heart rate and get some cardio throughout your exercise set (4 × 30 seconds, as fast as you can!) 2) Hamstring curls on the ball - wake up those hamstrings that tend to be under-active. Keep your hips extended throughout the entire exercise (aim for 3 × 10) 3) Forward lunge - when you step forward, centre your weight over the rear leg. When in the lunge position, the front and back knee should form a 90° angle, as should the angle between both the legs. Tuck your bum in so you do not extend your lumbar. (3 × 10) 4) Squats - sit back with your hips and get your bum back. Make sure your knees don't pass your toes, and that your knees line up with your second toe. (3 × 10) Give yourself a challenge and superset them! Upper body and core coming soon! #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #exercisemotivation #fitnessmotivation #healthylifestyle #legday #homeworkout #cardioworkout #quarantinelife #covid_19

It's been amazing how Telehealth has helped many of my clients! As a physio, sometimes it's easy to fall into the trap of doing too much manual therapy and not enough exercise prescription. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have had to close our practice temporarily, but the silver lining is it has forced us to do the majority of our treatment through exercise prescription and consult. And many of our clients are surprised just how much better they feel and how effective our exercise prescription has been. So if you have any aches and/or pains, we CAN HELP! follow the link in the bio to book with one of our Physios! (And hey, if you have extended health benefits, you're likely covered!) PS. I'll keep working on my latte art #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #exercisemotivation #fitnessmotivation #healthylifestyle #telehealth #onlinetherapy #covid_19 #covid #latteart #homeoffice

Amidst all this COVID-19 craziness, sometimes we just have to stop and be thankful for the little things. Had a great walk with my daughter that I would otherwise been too busy to have had. She picked one to take home to her mother. #cparkphysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #fitness #exercise #exercisemotivation #fitnessmotivation #healthylifestyle #covid #covid_19 #covid2020 #stopandsmelltheflowers #stopandsmelltheroses #grateful #gratitude

NEW VIDEO! Check it out! https://youtu.be/mZhO1DCR-qQ And my wife asks me why she can't use the last roll of toilet paper. Cause I need it as a weight for exercise!
