Performance Physiotherapy & Holistic Care
Deep Expertise & Trust in Every Treatment
Physiotherapy can help you reduce pain, restore movement, and return to the activities that matter most — with greater clarity and confidence.
We respect the whole human story, not just the injury. At Performance Clinic, our clinicians take a human-centred, evidence-informed approach. We take the time to understand your story, your body, your goals, and the physical and emotional demands of your life — so treatment truly fits you. We treat people — not simply body parts. We provide physiotherapy care from our Vancouver locations in Yaletown and Granville Island.
Our therapists bring years of clinical experience, led by Founder and Clinical Director — Stuart Anderson [Reg. Physio/IMS, MSc. Performance Psychology]. Mr. Anderson brings 20+ years of vast international clinical experience — from Cirque du Soleil to Olympic athletes and the Royal Ballet. He integrates manual therapy, dry needling (IMS/NFDN™), movement analysis, rehabilitative exercise, and mental performance coaching to deliver personalized, high-impact recovery — helping clients heal and perform at their very best. His unique mind–body approach has been celebrated by athletes, performers, and professionals worldwide.
