New day = New Chapter. 📖

Jake is making the move to Victoria as he supports his partner in her next chapter. We appreciate all that Jake has done for our clinic and will miss his quiet confidence around the clinic. It’s been a pleasure to see Jake grow over the past number of years from when we first interviewed him as a student to where he at now as a therapist and a person.

Keep being you Jake! We can only great things about you and wish you nothing but the best as you and Hailey start your new chapter in Victoria. 😊

Sports physio in 6 pictures from the recent trip Rich Huggins completed to Belgium / Germany with the Canadian U23 Rowing Team.

Clockwise from top left with comments from Rich.

1. Helping the coaches check levels on the boat before the athletes head out for training. 🚣

2. Leading a mobility / stretch / cooldown session post row with the men. 🧘‍♂️

3. Fist bumps pre race. 👊

4. Capturing moments for the athletes. Sometimes this taking video while biking along side them as they row, sometimes this is still shots. 📸

5. Why we do it. 🫶

6. Carrying oars while the athletes deal with the boat. The womens 8+ boat is about 60 ft long and weighs about 96 kgs and loading / unloading that boat is an exercise in teamwork. Least the staff can do is carry some oars for them. 🤝

In the end, being a Sports Physio is much more then just doing physio on some athletes and calling it a day. It’s about integrating yourself within the team and helping out with whatever is needed. It’s long days with the team at the lake that involves maybe carrying oars, holding boats, rigging boats, de rigging oats, taking video, setting up tents, cleaning hulls… the list goes on. 🇨🇦
