Post Surgery Active Rehab | Vancouver Kinesiologist

Rebuild Strength. Regain Confidence. Restore Quality of Life.

Recovering from surgery is not just about healing — it’s about how you return to movement. Whether you’ve had orthopedic surgery (like ACL repair, shoulder stabilization, or hip replacement) or a procedure related to chronic pain or injury, your journey doesn’t end after the incisions heal. The real work begins when you start moving again.

At UP Athletics & Rehab, we provide post-surgical active rehab in Vancouver, led by a registered kinesiologist. Our goal is to help you recover stronger, move with confidence, and return to the activities that give your life meaning — whether that’s gardening, strength training, or simply walking without pain.

Why Post-Surgery Rehab Matters

After surgery, most people experience decreased strength, stiffness, compensatory movement patterns, and fear of reinjury. Without a structured, progressive rehab plan, recovery can stall — or worse, lead to chronic dysfunction.

Physiotherapy gets you moving again. Kinesiology helps you move well — with strength, control, and long-term resilience.
Once you’ve completed your initial physio sessions and regained basic mobility, kinesiologist-led active rehab bridges the gap by guiding you through functional, purposeful movement that supports your full recovery and future health.

How We Help

Our post-surgery rehab programs are personalized, progressive, and focused on helping you regain your independence — on your timeline.

Each session includes:

• Strength and mobility training tailored to your surgery
• Movement pattern retraining to restore function and prevent compensation
• Balance and stability work to reduce fall and reinjury risk
• Education and coaching so you feel confident in your body again

Whether you’re recovering from knee surgery, spinal procedures, rotator cuff repair, or abdominal surgery, our approach adapts to your needs, goals, and pace.

Why Choose Active Rehab with a Kinesiologist in Vancouver?

Kitsilano and Vancouver residents are active by nature. Whether you’re aiming to get back to yoga, outdoor adventures, or pain-free daily life, we understand that movement is part of who you are. But many people are left unsure of what to do once basic rehab ends.

That’s where we come in.

At UP Athletics & Rehab, we offer:

• One-on-one private sessions in a clean, quiet gym setting
• Goal-focused rehab with a science-backed, compassionate approach
• Programs that bridge the gap between clinical recovery and real-world function

We don’t just help you move — we help you move better. With an emphasis on posture, mechanics, and strength, we support you in building a body that’s ready for life beyond recovery.
