PRICE vs PEACE & LOVE

PRICE focuses solely on the first few days of an injury to manage pain and swelling. It relies on immobilization.

This approach treats the whole person. It provides immediate care (PEACE) and long-term rehab (LOVE) to prevent chronic pain and re-injury.

Some Professionals have begun shifting away from PRICE because prolonged rest and icing can actually delay tissue repair and weaken muscles over time. The PEACE & LOVE framework focuses on working with your body's natural healing responses rather than just masking the symptoms.

This isn’t a “keep up with the class” kind of program.

In the GLA:D™ Program, everything is tailored to you: your starting point, your symptoms, your goals.

Exercises are progressed based on where you’re at, not where anyone else in the room is. Some people are just getting back to movement, others are ready to load more. Both are exactly where they should be.

It’s structured, evidence-based, and still completely individualized.

Strong legs = supported hips and knees 💪

With osteoarthritis, your joints don’t just need rest, they need strength, control, and confidence.
When the muscles around your hips and knees are doing their job, they help absorb load, reduce joint stress, and make everyday movement feel easier.

That’s exactly what we focus on in GLA:D™ Program — building strength in a way that’s safe, progressive, and actually translates to real life.

If your knees or hips have been holding you back, this might be a good place to start.

Knee or hip pain slowing you down?

The GLA:D™ Canada Program is an evidence-based, structured program designed to help you move better, build strength, and get back to what matters most — without relying on passive care.

Here’s what to expect:
• 7-week program
• 2 education sessions (learn about your joints + how to manage symptoms)
• 12 supervised group exercise sessions (progressive, individualized)
• Initial 1:1 assessment to establish your baseline
• FREE follow-up after the program to re-test your progress and plan your next steps

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all class — it’s guided, personalized care in a supportive group setting.

If you’re trying to avoid (or delay) surgery, reduce pain, and improve function — this is for you.
