Are you stronger or more stable on one leg versus the other? Most people are! However, consistently overloading one leg may have negative consequences on movement, therefore it is important to ensure the load is evenly distributed. For this reason, single leg exercises are important to build strength and stability in each leg to correct imbalances. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here are a few exercises for you to practice! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ - Hip abduction single leg squat⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ - Single leg sit to stand ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Important: Ensure your hips are square and your knee is in alignment for the duration of the movement
Meet Davin!! He is one of our very talented physiotherapists! He is energetic, smiley and you can usually you can find him humming/singing along to music in the clinic. Let’s get to know him a bit better! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are you doing when you’re not at the clinic? Spending time with my family, and taking care of my new baby girl, Ara. I enjoy going for hikes on the North Shore and when it’s not too wet, camping on the weekends. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What type of client is best suited for you?Working at a sports clinic for a number of years, I am confident in all injuries. Lately I have been seeing more complex neurological cases involving a whole-body approach to recovery. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What is your favourite place you’ve visited? It seems like the more I travel, the more I start to appreciate the west coast and what we have here in BC. I love going to Tofino and Northern Vancouver Island, like Quadra Island/Cortes Island. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What is a significant memory in your fitness/health lifestyle? Running varsity track at UBC was a big highlight for me. Learning what it takes to compete at a high level is something I really appreciate now. The hours of training, the lifestyle changes you make, and the mileage was a huge learning experience. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What is your favourite way to get active and why? I love running. For me it clears my head and its great exercise. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Random fact about you: I’ve done a bit of amateur musical theatre in my day. I’m very rusty, so don’t expect any serenading.
And we’re back to Mobility Mondays! Here’s a challenge for you to try while you might be stuck sitting on the couch for more hours than you anticipated. This exercise practices full hip range of motion from flexion and internal rotation to extension and external rotation. Give it a try and tag us in your attempt!
Keep it going people! Even when you’re shutting it down! It’s going to be a long few weeks and we don’t want to see you for your sitting injuries. Be well! #socialdistancing #motionislotion

We have an exciting surprise! We have been tossing the idea around about starting a podcast and seeing where it leads us. With all this downtime, we have directed our energy into launching it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The Physio Shop Talk seeks to discuss topics around rehabilitation and those in the healthcare field. We want to dive into all things Physio related, but also things in which may not get talked about all that much that may influence the way we treat rehab and exercise. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ See the link in our bio for the first few episodes. More to come!
