At The Movement Physio & Performance, we do things differently. We understand that for runners, climbers, and functional fitness athletes, movement isn't just a hobby—it's a lifestyle.

Our approach to physical therapy in Dundas, ON, is rooted in empowerment. We don't just provide passive treatments; we teach you how to take control of your own rehab.

As I prep for my first Hyrox competition here in Toronto, I’ve been thinking a lot about the sport and the common injuries I’ve seen in the clinic—especially when it comes to running.

While most people focus on the eight workout stations in Hyrox, I think the biggest overlooked piece is the running. In my opinion, Hyrox is a running race with workouts in between—not the other way around.

The constant phrase that echoed through our minds during the Sulphur Springs Trail Race was: “Challenge Yourself & Redefine Your Limits.”

This wasn’t just a motivational mantra—it’s a core belief that represents everything we stand for at The Movement

I’ve spent the past five years working with thousands of clients at The Movement Physiotherapy & Performance. And if there’s one mistake I see over and over again in rehab—it’s this one.

It’s a simple mistake, but not always easy to fix. In this blog, I’ll break it down and give you a tangible strategy you can use the next time pain shows up in your life.

At The Movement, two standards we like to hold ourselves to are : embodying a healthy lifestyle and embracing uncertainty. These aren’t just ideas we talk about—they’re the standards we live by, train by, and pass on to our community.

Okay okay I know you may be thinking… here is another clickbait title that just wants to draw me in only to leave me underwhelmed with the response. Give me a chance to prove you wrong.

At The Movement, we’ve worked with thousands of clients since opening, and despite what you may think, when a client goes through a pain flare-up during their rehab, it can actually end up being the best thing that ever happened to them — and I’m here to tell you why.

The first race of the STAC Trail Series — the Howling Wolf — is officially in the books, and what a day it was! The Movement Physio & Performance was thrilled to support the event by running one of the aid stations, bringing both energy and fuel to the trails as runners tackled the challenging course through Rattlesnake Point Conservation Area.

Injury is often viewed as a setback—but what if it could actually be the perfect catalyst for taking control of your health?

This idea has been on my mind a lot lately, especially as I reflect on patterns I see in our clinic and conversations I have with clients. Over the years, I’ve realized that injuries don’t just bring people into rehab—they offer a powerful opportunity to create lasting change.

Low back pain is one of the most common and frustrating ailments, and it's something that almost everyone will experience at some point in their lives. However, many misconceptions and myths surround low back pain, which can make it more difficult to effectively manage. In this blog, we’ll dive into some of the most common myths, the truths behind them, and offer practical steps on how to manage and overcome low back pain.

The day after a big race, or Medal Monday as all the runners like to call it, is one of the best days! The sense of accomplishment you feel from doing something physically challenging far outweighs the slow shuffle you use to get up and down the stairs the day after a race. At The Movement, we have a list of standards we hold ourselves to, and today, I wanted to share one of them with you: Embody a Healthy Lifestyle.

Tendon injuries are frustrating. Whether you're a weekend warrior, an elite athlete, or just someone trying to stay active, tendon pain can feel like a major setback. But here’s the truth: tendon injuries aren’t a life sentence. With the right approach, you can rehab, rebuild, and come back stronger than ever.

If you’ve ever been sidelined by an injury, you know—it’s tough. Physically, mentally, emotionally. And no matter how much you know about rehab (or how many people you’ve helped through it), when it’s your body, it hits differently.

I’m a physiotherapist and coach, and for years I’ve helped people navigate the ups and downs of injury recovery. But lately, I’ve been living it myself. And it’s been harder than I expected. So I wanted to share a bit of my journey—what I’ve learned, what I’ve struggled with, and the three things that are helping me stay on track.

If you’re gearing up for Around the Bay 30K, you’ve probably been logging your runs, maybe adding some hills, and planning your taper. But there’s one thing that can take your performance to the next level—and it has nothing to do with running.

It’s fuelling.

Seriously. If you want to run stronger, feel better, and recover faster, dialling in your nutrition before, during, and after your runs is hands down one of the biggest game-changers. And the best part? You can start seeing results without adding more miles to your training.
