There is no one I trust more with my daughter than my physio at Peak. She was able to assess my one-year-old in such a playful manner that my daughter now lights up when she sees her. Seeing a physiotherapist has also been really valuable in helping me understand developmental milestones and has been a great source of reassurance when I've had any concerns.

I've been coming here for about a year or so for different reasons and they are above expectations even when you see their ratings. Highly recommend this place!

This clinic is awesome! The staff are unbelievably welcoming, kind and friendly. If you get the chance to book a massage with Jessica, you’re in amazing hands. She’s knowledgeable, warm and absolutely incredible at her craft! Can’t say enough wonderful things and about Jessica and Peak!

I visited Dr. Logan Gerwing based off an recommendation and was very impressed. I have had a ton of physiotherapy/chiropractic care over the years and couldn't believe how quickly Logan was able to get to the root cause of my pain and set up a plan to resolve.

Extremely helpful, friendly, professional staff. Best place in the city for physio. They've done an incredible job helping me manage three concussions, getting me back on track quicker than I thought possible.

Amazing experience every time I come in. I am a competitive rugby player and I have seen over 4 of the practitioners and all treat every ache and pain in the best way possible. They all are very educated and will get you to where you want to be within a few treatments. I and many would recommend Peak Health & Performance for any sport related injuries. Come in with any injury and you will be leaving sore from treatment but glad you found the best fit to treat your needs!!

I have been a client of Kevin’s for a few years. I had a complicated shoulder recovery after surgery. Kevin explained everything to me in great detail and provided a comprehensive rehab plan. I can’t say enough good things about this clinic from the professionalism of the doctors to the friendly front desk staff. Great clinic and I recommend it to all my friends.

- Cory Comeau

Honestly, by far one of the best clinics I’ve ever attended. From the very moment you walk in it feels comfortable and warm. Everyone is so kind and takes an interest in your recovery and building a connection. If you see someone new they are already up to date on what you last came in for. It’s such a well-oiled machine. Highly recommended! Keep it up guys!

What is Kinesio Taping?

Kinesio and athletic taping involves taping over and around muscles for support to prevent over-contraction. An elastic form of tape is used that doesn’t restrict motion, but enhances it. Taping can improve muscle and joint proprioception by providing sensory feedback, reduce muscle fatigue and spasm, and reduce swelling, bruising and over-contraction of muscles. It can improve the activation of weakened muscles, relieve pain, and help correct joint mechanics by increasing the muscle function around the joint.

Yes, taping is an effective tool for athletes. It can provide support to the muscles and joints to improve performance and reduce the risk of injury. Taping can also help reduce pain and inflammation, improve proprioception, and increase range of motion. It’s important to note that taping should be used in combination with other treatments such as stretching and strength training for optimal results.

Athletic tape and Kinesiology tape are both forms of elastic taping that can be used to support and protect muscles, joints, and tendons. The main difference between the two is that athletic tape is designed to restrict movement, while Kinesio tape is designed to facilitate movement. Athletic tape is usually made of cotton fibers or synthetics and has a more rigid feel than Kinesio tape. Kinesio tape is made of a synthetic and elastic material that provides more flexibility and comfort than athletic tape.
