Senior Fitness & Active Rehab | Vancouver Kinesiologist
Move Freely. Stay Strong. Live Well.
As we age, staying active becomes more important — and more challenging. Stiff joints, balance issues, chronic pain, or recovering from surgeries can make movement feel intimidating. But maintaining strength, mobility, and confidence is key to living independently and enjoying life on your own terms.
At UP Athletics & Rehab, we provide personalized senior fitness and active rehab programs in Vancouver, led by a registered kinesiologist. Whether you’re looking to prevent falls, manage a chronic condition, or simply feel more confident climbing stairs or walking the seawall, we’re here to help you move better — safely and sustainably.
Why Senior Fitness & Active Rehab Matters
Many older adults face barriers to staying active. These might include:
- Joint stiffness or arthritis
- Muscle loss (sarcopenia)
- Poor balance or previous falls
- Low energy or cardiovascular deconditioning
- Anxiety around movement due to pain or injury
Without a targeted plan, it’s easy to lose strength and mobility over time — which can reduce independence and quality of life. While group fitness or general exercise is helpful, most seniors benefit from individualized, clinically-informed support — especially after injury, surgery, or periods of inactivity.
How We Help
As a registered kinesiologist, I provide 1-on-1 active rehab and fitness training designed specifically for older adults. Each session is personalized to your body, goals, and comfort level. Programs may include:
- Functional strength training for daily tasks
- Joint mobility and flexibility exercises
- Balance and fall prevention strategies
- Cardiovascular conditioning at your pace
- Postural and gait correction
- Education for pain management and self-care
Whether you’re managing osteoarthritis, recovering from joint replacement, or just want to stay active into your 70s, 80s, and beyond, our sessions meet you where you’re at — and help you move forward with confidence.
