Instagram post 17843653090846630 W Row and Press- This exercise builds stability in overhead positions. A great way to progress back into shoulder press or lifting overhead, this row press challenges your shoulder blades and rotator cuffs to maintain good position with resistance pulling your shoulders forwards. Great for anyone recovering from a shoulder injury!⁠

Instagram post 17864828614563170 Side plank with Knee drive- Who knew side planks could get even harder! Adding a knee drive challenges your core stability much more than a static hold. Focus on keeping your hips up high throughout the entire exercise.⁠

Instagram post 17874807733501355 ⭐️Meet Norm - PT,FCAMPT,CGIMS⁠ ⭐️⁠
⁠
Norm graduated from the University of Alberta in 1998 and has been helping people recover from orthopedic and sports injuries since. ⁠
⁠
In order to help serve his patients, he has taken many post-graduate courses including all 5 levels of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association's Orthopedic Curriculum culminating in the Advanced Diploma in Manual and Manipulative Therapy in 2008. ⁠
⁠
Norm also has a special interest in vestibular and concussion rehabilitation which led him to complete the prestigious Duke University Vestibular Program.⁠
⁠
He is certified in Gunn Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) and the Titleist Performance Institute Golf Program.⁠ 🏌️‍♂️⁠
⁠
Prior to starting Athletes’ Advantage Physiotherapy (now part of Advantage Sport Medicine) he worked for the Canadian Force at CFB Edmonton as part of a multidisciplinary team of orthopedic surgeons, physiatrists, family physicians and other allied health professionals. It is this experience that led him to form a partnership with HealthPointe Rehabilitation in order to provide our patients with more comprehensive treatment experience. ⁠
⁠
Away from the clinic, he likes to spend time with his wife and three kids hiking in the mountains, trail running and watching the Oilers (who everyone knows will win the cup….).⁠

Instagram post 17842366462839725 How does K Tape help Swelling and Lymphatic Drainage?⁠
Kinesiology Tape companies claim that by “microscopically lifting the skin” circulation and lymphatic drainage can be increased to reduce swelling in injuries. There is some research to support the use of K Tape to reduce swelling in injuries. Acute injuries have an inflammatory period of about 48 hours making this window the ideal time to apply K tape if you are using it to reduce swelling.⁠
⁠
To learn more about K Tape please visit our website.⁠

Instagram post 17844163168809886 Soleus Lunge - The soleus muscle is often overshadowed by its more commonly known partner the gastrocnemius, but it is the prime mover in plantar flexion when the knee is bent! A lunge position is a great way to load a heel raise when your goal is to target the soleus. ⁠

Honoured to represent Canada and wear our maple leaf. My body may not be cooperating but I will dig as deep as I can to cover as many miles as I can. I’ve done all I could to be rested and ready and recovered but this nagging injury has a different plan. Heartbroken yes but still very proud and want so badly to make Canada proud with a strong performance.

Instagram post 17890545811419829 Nordic Hamstring Curls - This exercise is a great eccentric hamstring exercise. It is often known for its difficulty and muscle soreness that it can cause, but it has been shown to have some significant strength benefits for hamstrings. Especially if you have a history of hamstring strains or are participating in a sport where hamstring injuries are common (like running or soccer), you may want to try including this in your strength program. ⁠
