The nervous system is a complex system. Pain travels along the nerve pathways and can refer pain to different areas of the body. The pain may be felt in the lower leg, but the source of pain is in the back. The pain may be felt in the forearm/fingers, but the source of the pain is in the neck or shoulder. Pain travels and is not always true to the source.
The most common referring pain example is sciatic pain. The sciatic nerve is a HUGE nerve that... more

Up your game with this.

Here's how it's done

What happens when you "knead" the care but don't like to be touched? #letstalkaboutit

Our team of skilled physiotherapists are able to perform their assessment through subjective findings and objective findings, and then a treatment plan can be made. Our physiotherapists do like to use their hands as their eyes so they are able to feel restriction in movement patterns and palpate areas to... more

Do you pee when you laugh? Maybe you gave birth a few years ago or are naturally aging and have been told "pfffff, it's normal". ITS NOT.
When you hurt your shoulder, you seek out a physiotherapist. When you have a joint replacement, you seek out a physiotherapist. When your muscles are feeling weak, you seek out a physiotherapist. So why, when there are pelvic floor issues, do we just pretend that that's normal and continue living with it?
Your pelvic floor is made up of muscles, tissue and ligaments just like other... more

So what is the difference? Mobility: the ability of a joint to move ACTIVELY through a range of motion Strength: how much force a muscle can produce Flexibility: the ability of a muscle or muscle groups to lengthen PASSIVELY through a range of motion While being flexible is impressive, having good mobility and strength proves to be more beneficial when it comes to your ADL's (activities of daily living).

You have benefits and you've never used them??? THATS MADNESS!! But, you're checking out our page, seeing what a great (and fun) health and wellness team we are, and now we've got you thinking... 🤔 "I should probably investigate my benefits to find out if they cover massage/physio. While I'm on the phone/in the app, I'll check and see how much coverage I get per visit/per year. Ya, you know what? Lets book my appointment!" Now you're talkin'!... more

Did you know that Kneaded Care is a multidisciplinary clinic? We have a wonderful team of massage therapists and physiotherapists who all come with their specific niche or "specialty".
We love to share knowledge beween #teamRMT and #teamPT because in the end, the teams share clients and the clients' best interest is always our number one priority.
The RMTs recently got a lesson from David on using K-Tape and leuko/hypa fix tape. Taping is a great way to provide stability, decrease inflammation, or provide... more
