Work Injury Recovery & Active Rehab | Vancouver Kinesiologist
Restore Function. Regain Confidence. Get Back to Work Stronger.
Work injuries can happen anywhere — from an office desk to a construction site. Whether it’s a back strain from lifting, a repetitive strain injury from typing, or shoulder pain from overhead work, these injuries can make even simple daily tasks difficult.
The challenge? Many people return to work before their body is truly ready, leading to lingering pain, reduced strength, and a higher risk of reinjury. Without a structured, progressive recovery plan, you may struggle to meet the physical demands of your job — and your quality of life can suffer.
At UP Athletics & Rehab, I provide work injury recovery and active rehab in Vancouver, led by a registered kinesiologist. Using both clinical and performance-based approaches, I help you restore function, rebuild strength, and return to work — and life — with confidence.
Why Work Injury Recovery Matters
After a workplace injury, the first stage of recovery often involves hands-on treatments such as physiotherapy or massage therapy to manage pain, inflammation, and early mobility. These are important early steps.
But once those initial improvements are made, many people are left unsure how to progress. That’s where active rehab with a kinesiologist comes in. We focus on rebuilding functional strength, improving movement quality, and restoring confidence — so you can return to work, physical activity, and daily life with less risk of reinjury.
How We Help
Our programs are tailored to your injury, your job demands, and your long-term health. Whether you work at a desk, in a trade, or in a physically demanding environment, we design sessions that get you back to moving — and working — without fear or discomfort.
Each session may include:
- Strength and mobility training tailored to your injury and job tasks
- Movement pattern retraining to restore safe, efficient function
- Posture correction and ergonomic strategies to protect your body at work
- Balance and stability work to reduce fall and reinjury risk
- Job-specific conditioning to prepare you for real-world demands
- Education and self-management strategies to maintain your recovery long-term
All sessions take place in a private gym setting, ensuring focused attention, minimal distractions, and a clean, comfortable space to train.
