Our physiotherapist Rachel Wilson, MScPT, RYT, RPYT, is also a Registered Yoga Teacher and Registered Prenatal Yoga Teacher, bringing together clinical expertise and mindful movement. She offers 1:1 Physio Yoga as part of her treatment options, along with small group Clinical Yoga-lates class series throughout the year.
Mina Mladenovic and Rafael Rafaelov offer physio-led strength and conditioning sessions that bridge the gap between injury rehab and peak performance. Each session is built around your goals, with a focus on proper technique, progressive loading, and building the strength, power, and resilience needed for sport, work, and everyday life. Whether you’re returning from injury, managing persistent pain, or looking to move and perform better, you’ll train with the guidance and clinical expertise of a physiotherapist every step of the way.
We also offer small group, physio-led strength classes, where people with similar goals can train together in a supportive, motivating setting. Classes are kept small so you still get hands-on coaching, technique feedback, and exercise modifications tailored to your needs, all at a more accessible price than 1:1 sessions.
Clinical Pilates at Flow Physio + Wellness is a physiotherapist-led approach to Pilates that builds core strength, stability, flexibility, and body awareness through exercises tailored to your body and goals. It’s ideal for anyone recovering from injury, managing back or pelvic pain, navigating pregnancy or postpartum, or simply looking to move with more strength and control. Every program begins with an assessment so your exercises are matched to your needs and progressed safely over time.
We offer:
- 1:1 Clinical Pilates for hands-on feedback and fully individualized programming
- 1:1 Clinical Prenatal and Postnatal Pilates
- Small Group Clinical Pilates, where people with similar concerns and movement goals train together through physio-led classes
- Clinical Yoga-lates class series blends the flexibility and restorative poses of yoga with the principles of Pilates for strength, stability, coordination and balance
Physio-led running analysis and rehabilitation at Flow Physio + Wellness is designed for runners of all levels, whether you’re dealing with pain or injury, returning to running after time off or postpartum, or looking to improve your efficiency and performance. Your assessment includes a video running analysis and functional movement screening, along with a review of your strength, mobility, training history, and footwear to identify what may be contributing to pain or holding you back.
Treatment is tailored to you and may include:
- Running analysis with real-time cueing and form feedback
- Discussion of your current run programming, with modifications to training load, volume, and intensity
- Strength programming specific to running and to the issues identified in your assessment
- A structured return-from-injury plan to guide you safely back to your goals
- Hands-on treatment as needed to manage pain and restore movement
The goal is to get you running comfortably, reduce your risk of future injury, and help you run stronger and more confidently for the long term.

Soft tissue therapy uses hands-on techniques to reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and relieve pain or stiffness in muscles and connective tissues. It can help restore mobility, support recovery, and improve overall movement quality.
Cupping therapy uses suction cups placed on the skin to promote blood flow, decrease muscle tightness, and support healing. It is often used to relieve pain, improve mobility, and reduce tension in overworked muscles.
Myofascial release is a gentle hands-on technique that targets restrictions in the fascia, the connective tissue surrounding muscles and joints. This treatment helps reduce pain, improve flexibility, and restore natural movement patterns.
Neuromuscular acupuncture combines traditional acupuncture principles with modern anatomy and neuroscience to target muscular and nerve-related pain. Fine needles are used to reduce tension, improve muscle activation, and support the body’s natural healing response.
Dry needling involves inserting thin needles into tight or sensitive muscle trigger points to reduce pain and improve muscle function. It is commonly used to relieve muscle tension, improve mobility, and accelerate recovery.
The Graston Technique uses specialized stainless steel instruments to detect and treat areas of scar tissue or soft tissue restriction. This therapy can help improve mobility, decrease pain, and promote tissue healing.
Exercise programming involves creating individualized movement and strengthening plans based on your goals, condition, and lifestyle. Targeted exercises help improve mobility, build strength, prevent injury, and support long-term recovery.
