The Missing Link in Recovery
You’ve been to your chiropractor, your physiotherapist—maybe even your massage therapist. Things are starting to feel better, but you’re still not quite there. Pain is down, but function? Confidence? Strength?
That’s where most people get stuck.
Let’s bridge the gap—between recovery and performance, pain relief and confidence, short-term relief and long-term strength. Your care team sets the foundation—let’s build on it together.
Why Collaboration Matters
We believe the best outcomes happen when everyone works together. That’s why TurnFit collaborates closely with your health practitioners—not to take over care, but to complement it.
Our goal isn’t to replace anyone’s expertise; it’s to enhance the recovery journey with consistency and continuity.
We recognize the incredible work being done by the team at Baseline Wellness and the value they bring to every client’s healing process. By staying in communication and reinforcing the work already being done, we help ensure that each client sees the fastest, safest, and most long-lasting results possible.
A Collaborative Scenario: Meet Alex
Strength begins with smart form and support.
Alex is a 38-year-old who came to Baseline Wellness with persistent lower back pain. After a thorough assessment, his chiropractor identified alignment issues and referred him to a physiotherapist for targeted mobility work. Within a few sessions, Alex’s pain had decreased, and he was introduced to a kinesiologist for simple take-home movements to stabilize his spine.
Enter TurnFit. With open communication between Alex’s team at Baseline and our coaches, we created a strength and posture program that respected his injury history, complemented his care plan, and gave him daily mobility “homework” to do on his own.
Over the next three months, Alex progressed from being fearful of lifting his kids to confidently moving through squats and deadlifts—pain-free and stronger than ever.
Why Rehab Alone Isn’t Enough
Rehab is essential. It reduces pain, improves mobility, and initiates healing. But it’s not designed to take you all the way to full strength and performance. After acute care ends, there’s often a “now what?” moment.
That’s where structured strength and posture-focused training comes in.
Without it:
- The risk of re-injury remains high
- Movement compensations stick around
- And let’s be honest—daily life (let alone athletic goals) requires more than just being pain-free
Baseline Wellness Has You Covered!
At Baseline Wellness, clients benefit from an incredibly thoughtful model of care. Not only do you get access to exceptional practitioners—chiropractors, physiotherapists, RMTs, and osteopaths—but you also receive brief sessions with a knowledgeable kinesiologist to support your recovery and movement.
These mini movement sessions? Pure gold. They reinforce treatment, promote healing, and guide you back to function.
That said—those sessions are meant to kick-start your movement plan. If you want to maximize your results and speed up recovery, consistency is key.
Where TurnFit Adds Value
Coaching with intention = confidence reborn.
Think of us as your daily movement accountability team. We take the prescription from your health team and build it out into a full, easy-to-follow plan you can do on your own—and with us.
✅ We provide daily “homework” exercises you can do anywhere—at home, on your break, or between dog walks.
✅ We ensure your strength matches your mobility—so you’re not just flexible, you’re functional.
✅ We guide you from “this feels better” to “I feel unstoppable.”
The truth is: those who follow through with daily movement and progressive strength training recover faster, stay pain-free longer, and get more out of their care plan.
How Strength Training Complements Therapy
Your body adapts to what you repeatedly do. So if we want long-term improvements, we need to build strength and resilience on top of the foundation your therapist helped create.
At TurnFit, we focus on:
- Correcting posture and alignment
- Rebalancing muscles (especially after injury)
- Teaching proper mechanics to prevent future issues
- Gradual strength progression that respects your recovery
- Collaborative communication with your care team
A Team-Based Approach: Everyone Wins
Imagine this:
- Your chiropractor resets joint function
- Your physiotherapist restores movement patterns
- Your massage therapist reduces tension and improves tissue quality
- Your Baseline kinesiologist gives you the first step toward movement rehab
- Your TurnFit coach brings it all together with a custom strength and posture plan that keeps you moving forward
We don’t replace your health practitioners—we amplify them. Like peanut butter and jelly.
Another Collaborative Scenario: Sarah’s Recovery
Sarah came to us after a car accident. She had completed 10 sessions of physio and was cleared to resume activity but felt unsure how to start.
We worked alongside her physio and kin team to create a posture-focused strength program. Three months later, she not only felt confident again—she was squatting, pain-free, and stronger than she’d been pre-accident.
Let’s Bridge the Gap—Together!
TurnFit offers:
- Posture assessments
- Mobility screenings
- Custom training programs that align with your current care
Think of us as your consistency partner—we keep the momentum going between your appointments and help extend the benefits of the amazing work already happening at Baseline Wellness.
Common Questions from Clients:
Q: Do I have to stop seeing my physio or chiro if I work with TurnFit?
A: Nope! In fact, we encourage you to keep going. We work in alignment with your existing team.
Q: What if I already have exercises from my kinesiologist?
A: Perfect! We take those and build them into a complete strength program you can follow with full coaching and support.
Q: I’ve had injuries before—will this be too intense?
A: Not at all. We specialize in post-rehab training. Think of us as a gentle but results-driven next step.
Q: Can I do this online or do I have to come in-person?
A: Both! We offer in-person sessions in Vancouver and fully supported online personal training programs so you can train anywhere.
