What is Active Rehabilitation

Active Rehabilitation is a proactive approach to injury recovery that allows for a much more rapid healing process by integrating a progressive series of activation exercises to strengthen weak muscles and rebalance your body. It is our belief that your body is a linked, interconnected and reactive system which is positively influenced with the correct combination of stretching and strengthening.

Knowledgeable Staff

Performance Institute staff has a wealth of experience in dealing with rehabilitating injuries. Each of our staff is a designated Kinesiologist with post secondary education in either Kinesiology or Human Kinetics. During each session, your Kinesiologist motivates and guides you through individually tailored programs to increase your core stability, postural alignment, overall strength, endurance and range of motion.

This comprehensive exercise education provides you with a results based, exciting routine in a fun and motivational environment. We also have a number of health care professionals to refer you to if we feel that you require further treatment outside of our abilities.

One-on-One Program Attention

Programs begin with a comprehensive physical assessment including: goal setting session, history of injury and subsequent prognosis. After this thorough evaluation of your goals and assessment results, our team is ready help you rehabilitate your injuries with a custom program designed for your specific needs.

Your program is established through progressive, individualized training, focusing on, but not limited to, core strengthening, postural education and work specific exercises. In addition, key elements of your rehab will also include flexibility improvement, cardiovascular endurance and postural alignment.

Your routine will be continually updated with new progressions. Once you are fully rehabilitated, we will graduate you with your very own independent gym program.

Our objective is to help you transition from your treatment to your recreational activities or your return to work (RTW) without further injury faster than any other AR program in the Lower Mainland.
