Physio for CrossFit in Victoria, BC

 

 

Nothing is more frustrating than looking for help for an injury, and they ask you "what's a kip?" Or even worse, they just say "CrossFit is dangerous." You don't just need somebody that will treat your pain. You need somebody that has experienced CrossFit for themselves, understands the demands, and can coach you through all the movements that are involved AS WELL AS get you out of pain.

​

At Apollo, we get it. We have personal experience training AND coaching CrossFit. Our 5-stage rehab and performance system is built for CrossFit athletes who don't want to be scaling workouts forever. We’ll help you move better, recover faster, and get back to crushing WODs without fear of breaking down mid-set.

​

We’ve worked with CrossFit athletes from their first Open to the Games. Whether your goal is hitting a new snatch PR, stringing together muscle-ups, or simply keeping up with your box’s fittest, we’ll build a plan that keeps you training — not sidelined.

How traditional physio falls short:

  • No understanding of the demand of each component of CrossFit across weightlifting, gymanstics, and conditioning modalities.

  • Focus on short-term pain relief instead of improving movement patterns for the ability to train long term.

  • General rehab that doesn't take into account your individual mobility, strengths, and limitations. 

  • No plan to reintegrate weightlifting, gymnastics, or conditioning safely outside of "ease back into it."

Our Approach to CrossFit Rehab

  • Help you stay in the gym while rehabbing through custom scaling options that you can share with your coaches at your gym.

  • Improve technique and efficiency for weightlifting and gymnastics to reduce your injury risk in the future.

  • Personalized accessory programs to go along with your gyms programming to keep building your weaknesses along side your fitness.

  • Work with a physio that understands CrossFit programming, coaching, and takes part in it themselves.
