Clinical Pilates

Clinical Pilates involves the use of Pilates exercises, but specifically adapted and prescribed for the rehabilitation of injuries and physical problems. This means that your therapist will design your exercise program based on the assessment of your injuries and pain, and they will likely also incorporate other treatments along with Pilates exercises.

I kept seeing my training partners get injured, I wanted to learn how to do something about it.” Thus, Roniel’s passion for sports and watching people move led him to Vancouver Career College’s Registered Massage Therapy program, which he graduated from in 2017. Recently, after a brief stint working for Vancouver Career College’s outreach program at SFU, he discovered the value of getting people moving around the room, reassessing the patient’s progress multiple times during treatment. His patient’s are highly encouraged to bring a pair of shorts (and sports bra for female clients) in order to perform this kind of sports treatment. That being said, Roniel sees the value in searching for the root cause of his patient’s concerns, that sometimes that stubborn shoulder due to stress and fatigue. His top priority is his patient’s holistic wellbeing, and he will provide what he can, and get you in touch with who you need (Chiropractic, Physiotherapy, Psychology, etc.), in order for you to get back to doing things you love to do pain free.

On days and hours that he’s not working, Roniel enjoys training his mind, body, and spirit. In order to provide the best he could, he understands that he needs to be in tip-top shape inside and out! He can be found at his local rock climbing gym, practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with his buddies, strength training at the gym, jumping into the cold waters of Lynn Creek, and going for massage, chiropractic, and physiotherapy sessions.
