Overview
When You Need Exercise Prescription
Exercise prescription is needed when doing the wrong exercise will make things worse — or when you genuinely do not know what is safe or effective for your situation. This applies to WCB or MVA injury recovery, chronic pain management, post-surgical rehabilitation, prenatal and postpartum fitness, and any active rehabilitation program. Without the right guidance, many people either do too much too soon or not enough.
Signs You Should Come In
- ✔ Unsure which exercises are safe after an injury or surgery
- ✔ WCB or MVA claim requiring a formal exercise component
- ✔ Chronic pain that changes what exercise is appropriate
- ✔ Prenatal or postpartum exercise needs
- ✔ Starting from scratch after a long period of inactivity
How It Works
Our Exercise Prescription Process
We assess your current capacity, injury status, and goals. We choose exercises that are appropriate for your stage of recovery — not your neighbour’s or your previous trainer’s program. Exercises are demonstrated, supervised for form, and progressed on a schedule. Your prescription is written clearly so you can perform exercises at home with confidence.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an exercise prescription?
An exercise prescription is a clinician-designed program specifying the type, intensity, frequency, and progression of exercise for your specific health goals and physical condition.
Who writes my exercise prescription?
Our kinesiologist and physiotherapist collaborate to design your program. Physiotherapy findings inform the safe starting point; kinesiology builds and progresses the program.
Is this different from what I can find on YouTube?
Yes. A proper exercise prescription is based on your assessment findings, injury history, and current capacity. Generic online programs are not matched to your body or your goals.
Is exercise prescription covered by extended health?
Yes. Exercise prescription within physiotherapy and kinesiology sessions is covered by most extended health plans. We direct bill.
