Expert Care Tailored to You

Preventative Physical Therapy for Every Stage of Life
At Boost Health Clinic, we are proud to offer preventative physical therapy services designed to enhance performance, prevent injuries, and improve quality of life.

Athletic Performance & Injury Prevention
Athletes of all ages push their bodies to the limit during training and competition. Our professionals are here to help identify weaknesses or imbalances to optimize performance and reduce the risk of injury.

We offer:

Detailed Biomechanical and Physical Assessments tailored to your sport or activity.
Thorough Treatment Plans to address specific needs.
Baseline Concussion Assessments and evaluation of pre-existing post-concussion symptoms to ensure you’re ready to perform at your best.
Scoliosis Management
For children with scoliosis, early intervention is key. Specific exercises and postural retraining can help correct scoliosis to a degree and prevent long-term complications. Our individualized treatment plans are designed to be both effective and enjoyable, setting a foundation for better spinal health.

Untreated scoliosis can lead to difficult-to-correct compensation patterns later in life. A preventative approach minimizes these risks and promotes long-term well-being.

Fall Prevention for Older Adults
Did you know:

Almost 90% of hip fracture hospitalizations are due to falls.
1 in 10 falls leads to injuries that may cause functional decline.
At Boost Health Clinic, we’re passionate about helping older adults maintain confidence and independence. Our services include:

Comprehensive Balance and Gait Assessments
Tailored Treatment Plans addressing dizziness, mobility, strength, and visual changes.
We also focus on post-hospitalization recovery, knowing that extended stays can result in rapid strength and mobility loss, with up to 2% of muscle mass lost per day.

A Preventative Approach to Your Health
At Boost Health Clinic, we believe in the power of prevention. Let us help you gain confidence, improve performance, and enjoy a healthier, more independent life.
ntramuscular Stimulation & Dry Needling for Long-Lasting Muscle Relaxation
Intramuscular Stimulation & Dry Needling for Long-Lasting Muscle Relaxation
Intramuscular stimulation (IMS) and dry needling are highly effective techniques used to relax tight muscles and address neuropathies caused by degenerative spinal changes. Using very thin, wire-like acupuncture needles, our trained therapists gently insert and remove the needles from tight, banded muscles. This stimulates the muscles to twitch and ultimately relax.

This service offers long-lasting muscle relaxation, helping to alleviate tension and discomfort. Our therapists are skilled in various needling techniques, tailoring the treatment to suit different types of muscle problems for optimal results.
Myofascial Release: Gentle Yet Powerful Tension Relief
Myofascial release has quickly gained popularity in both physiotherapy and massage therapy due to its gentle yet effective approach. This technique aims to separate the fascia—the connective tissue that surrounds every structure in the body—and release tension from the muscles, nerves, ligaments, tendons, or bones beneath.

Fascia can become sticky and restrictive as a response to trauma, injury, dehydration, or poor circulation. By addressing these issues, myofascial release helps restore range of motion, improve strength and circulation, and reduce pain.

Our skilled team is trained to target and treat myofascial structures, helping you experience lasting relief and improved mobility.

Swedish massage is the most well-known and widely practiced form of massage therapy, serving as the foundation for many other massage styles.

This therapy uses gentle, moderate, or deep strokes on areas such as the back, arms, legs, and neck to relieve pain, reduce stress, and promote relaxation. Techniques like gliding, kneading, tapping, friction, and light shaking are employed to target muscles and tissues for optimal healing and comfort.

Whether addressing pain, stiffness, stress, or injuries, Swedish massage is designed to enhance relaxation and support overall well-being.
Deep Tissue Massage: Relief at a Deeper Level
Deep tissue massage takes the benefits of Swedish massage further, targeting chronic pain and injury with specialized techniques. This therapeutic treatment is ideal for releasing toxins, easing muscle tension, and promoting relaxation.

Favoured by athletes and massage therapists, deep tissue massage works to release stubborn knots and improve range of motion. It focuses on damaged tissue and uses precise, deep pressure to address scar tissue, soft tissue injuries, chronic conditions, and stress.

Whether you’re managing long-term pain or seeking relief from tension, deep tissue massage provides a soothing and effective path to healing and recovery.
ports Massage: Enhance Performance and Recovery
Sports massage offers more than relaxation and pain relief—it’s a powerful tool for improving performance, preventing injuries, and aiding recovery from sports-related strain.

For athletes engaged in repetitive activities like running, cycling, racquet sports, or weightlifting, sports massage helps release muscle tension, promote tissue repair, and restore muscle balance. This ensures a safer, stronger, and more effective next workout.

Whether you’re training hard or recovering from an injury, sports massage supports your body’s ability to perform at its best.
Trigger Point Therapy: Targeting Pain at Its Source
Tension in one part of the body can often cause referral pain in another—like a headache stemming from stiffness in the neck and shoulders.

Trigger point therapy focuses on relieving pain by addressing the source of tension. Through targeted massage techniques and deep breathing, this therapy releases tightness, eases discomfort, and restores balance to your body.

Say goodbye to lingering aches by treating the root cause with trigger point therapy.

Unlock Relief: The Power of Acupuncture for Muscle Tension and Pain
Acupuncture is one of the oldest forms of physical therapy, and it remains widely practiced today. Once a unique part of Eastern medicine, acupuncture has grown in popularity and is now recognized by Western medical research as an effective tool for injury recovery, mobility issues, and chronic pain relief.

Acupuncture is particularly effective for treating muscle tension, which can arise from various causes, including emotional stress, sports injuries, car accidents, or repetitive motions such as lifting and typing. While common in the lower back and neck, muscle tension can occur anywhere in the body. Many people turn to pain medication for relief, but this is only a temporary solution and can lead to undesirable side effects.

Muscle tightness often creates a vicious cycle of pain, which can cause other parts of the body to tense up in response. Acupuncture helps break this cycle by reducing pain and relaxing the body overall. By working with an experienced acupuncturist, such as those at Boost Health Clinic, you can address muscle tension effectively for long-term relief.

Acupuncture works by stimulating the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals, including endorphins and neurotransmitters. These substances help reduce pain and trigger blood flow to the affected areas, accelerating recovery. This treatment helps short-circuit the loop of pain and stiffness, providing relief.

Endorphin release: Endorphins are the body’s natural painkillers, often released during physical activity. Acupuncture stimulates these mood-boosting chemicals, reducing pain and relaxing tense muscles, including those compensating for stiffness.

Neurohormone production: Acupuncture also stimulates the release of neurohormones like dopamine, which help manage pain and emotional tension, enhancing the benefits of the treatment.

A common cause of muscle tension is muscle adhesion, where scar tissue forms and causes muscles to stiffen. An acupuncturist can target these adhesions with precise needle placement, improving circulation and dissolving scar tissue to promote healing.

While acupuncture is effective for relieving chronic muscle tension and pain, it’s essential to seek treatment from a licensed acupuncturist. Contact Boost Health Clinic today to book your appointment and experience the benefits of acupuncture for your well-being!
