Young Kempt Physiotherapy and Massage Therapy Clinic

We are excited to offer physiotherapy treatment options for individuals experiencing breast cancer-related concerns.

Physiotherapy can play an important role in supporting recovery, function, and overall quality of life throughout and following treatment. Some common concerns we can help address include:

• Scar tissue management
• Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy
• Shoulder mobility and strength limitations
• Fatigue
• Osteoporosis-focused exercise programs
• Postural changes and discomfort

Treatment begins with a one-on-one assessment in a private treatment room, where care is tailored to your individual needs, goals, and stage of recovery.

To learn more or book with Lana, please contact Beaverbank Physiotherapy at 902-865-2865 or send us a DM.

With great sadness, we say goodbye to our friend, colleague, and mentor, Dr. Robert Stalker.

As young physiotherapists, Bob took us (Mike and Anita) under his wing. He encouraged us to join him on a trip to Washington University in St. Louis to learn from Shirley Sahrmann—an experience that ultimately helped shape our careers as physiotherapists.

Those trips became an annual tradition, and through them we gained not only invaluable knowledge but also lifelong friendships. Bob was a larger-than-life presence, always introducing us to others, opening doors, and making sure we got the very most out of every opportunity.

Over the years, Bob was incredibly generous with his time, knowledge, and support of both us and our clinic. More importantly, he was a wonderful friend whose impact on our lives and the lives of so many others will never be forgotten.

Thank you, Bob, for your mentorship, kindness, and unwavering belief in us. We are forever grateful.

Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, colleagues, and everyone whose life he touched. He will be deeply missed.

🚧 Road Construction Notice A heads up for our patients!

Beginning late July, HRM will be completing road maintenance on Sackville Drive between Florence Street and Beaver Bank Road. Construction is expected to continue into October 2026.

While our clinic will remain open and accessible throughout the project, traffic delays are possible. If you have an appointment at Beaverbank Physiotherapy, we recommend giving yourself a little extra travel time to help ensure you arrive on schedule.

The work will be completed in phases, and according to HRM, business access will be maintained throughout construction.

If you have any questions about getting to your appointment, don’t hesitate to give us a call.

Thank you for your patience, we look forward to seeing you!

Five Years. One Tradition 🎣

Every year, Mike, Nathan, Chad, and Pat head to the Miramichi for a few days of fishing, catching up, and spending time together.

While clinics evolve and careers take different paths, it's nice to see that some traditions continue. We're grateful to be part of a physiotherapy community that's built on long-standing friendships and mutual support.

Here's to year six.

Meet Kennedy Peddie, Athletic Therapist! 💙

Did you know that Kennedy Peddie is accepting new patients for Athletic Therapy services at Beaverbank Orthopaedic and Sport Physiotherapy and Cheema Aquatic Club?

Kennedy is a Certified Athletic Therapist and graduate of Sheridan College, where she earned her Honours Bachelor of Applied Health Science (Athletic Therapy) Degree with High Honours. During her time at Sheridan, she competed on the varsity women’s soccer team and was recognized with the Sheridan Bruins Female Double Blue Scholar Award for excellence in both academics and athletics.

Originally from Ontario, Kennedy recently made Nova Scotia home and brings experience working with athletes at the professional, varsity, high school, and club levels. She has supported athletes across a wide range of sports, including soccer, basketball, football, volleyball, hockey, gymnastics, wrestling, figure skating, and ultimate frisbee.

Kennedy combines hands-on treatment with functional exercise to help clients recover from injury, return to sport, and get back to the activities they enjoy. While Athletic Therapy is often associated with athletes, she is passionate about helping individuals of all ages, abilities, and activity levels move better and stay active.
