As a physio, I take what I do seriously. When I’m in clinic, I’m all in. My clients deserve my full attention. My team deserves my support and guidance. I owe it to myself to keep learning, seek out mentors, and continue growing so I can provide the best care possible.

But sometimes you just gotta vibe and have a few drinks to reset 🙃🍻 taken in Tomorrowland by @ajovz

The rehab standard is often too low.
Too much passive care. Not enough specific programming.
Too much inaccurate and sometimes harmful messaging.

We owe it to ourselves, our clients, and this profession to be accountable for raising the standard.

The standard can always be higher.
Surround yourself with people who challenge you to raise it, not people who let you stay comfortable and go through the motions. ✌️ taken in Calgary, Alberta by @ajovz

Hi!

I’m Andrew, a physio at @myodetox Kensington. I have a passion for connecting with people, identifying areas for improvement, and, most importantly, empowering you to take charge of your health.

Over the past 4 years, I’ve developed a special interest in:
✔️ Postural-related pain
✔️ Post-op knees
✔️ Shoulder pathologies
✔️ Whiplash & post-concussion syndrome
✔️ TMJ/jaw pain
✔️ Running analysis & treatment

My approach to physio:
I don’t believe in passive, band-aid solutions. My focus is on getting to the root of the issue, creating long-term changes, and making sure you walk away from each session feeling like you’re making real progress.

You’ll get:
1️⃣ Straight-up, no BS communication
2️⃣ Results-driven treatments
3️⃣ A plan that fits YOUR life – Whether you want to lift, run, play sports, or just move better, we’ll make sure your rehab aligns with your goals.

What to expect in your first session:
✔️ No rushed assessments. We’ll dive into your history and daily habits to find the “why” behind your pain.
✔️ A movement screen – I’ll analyze how you move so we can pinpoint any potential inefficiencies/compensations.
✔️ Clear explanations – You’ll never leave guessing.
✔️ Hands-on treatment & coaching – Expect a mix of manual therapy, joint mobilization, dry/electro needling, and active rehab.
✔️ A game plan you can trust – We’ll set realistic expectations, outline your rehab timeline, and make sure you know exactly what’s next (think of it as a @netflix preview of your recovery).

If you’re tired of the same cookie-cutter physio—heat packs, TENS, ultrasound, and being told to stop training until you maybe get better—let’s do something different. Let’s take an active approach that actually moves you forward. #futureproof #futureproofyourbody

Ps I am a huge animal lover, so feel free to bring your furry friends to our sessions ❤️

Mon, Wed and Fri: 1-730pm
Tues and Thur: 7am-1pm

As Thanksgiving passes by, I’ve been reflecting on how grateful I am to be a physio and how much I genuinely enjoy this profession.

I get asked a lot by clients, other rehab clinicians, business owners, and new grads what this profession is really like. Anyone who knows me knows I feel pretty lucky to say that I truly love what I do.

One of the interesting parts of physio is how much the day to day can vary. Workload, income, schedule, caseload, and career path can all look completely different depending on the person. I do believe there’s a sweet spot where you can earn a very livable wage, treat a sustainable number of clients, and still do meaningful work. That number looks different for everyone.

For me, the most important part of what we do has nothing to do with volume. It’s helping people understand their bodies, reminding them what they’re capable of, and giving them the confidence to work toward the things that matter to them.

Sometimes that’s sport. Sometimes it’s work. Sometimes it’s getting back to a hobby. Sometimes it’s simply moving through life without constantly thinking about pain.

The amount of time we get to spend with our clients is pretty unique in healthcare, and that gives us a real opportunity to make an impact. We get to be there through the wins, the setbacks, the frustrating days, and the big milestones. Through all of it, we get to be a steady guide in the process.

That’s a pretty special thing to be part of, and it’s something I don’t take for granted.

To my clients, thank you for trusting me to be part of that process. I’ll never take for granted the people I’ve met, the community I get to work with, or how much those relationships have shaped me too.

Very grateful for the profession, the people, and the privilege of doing this work.
