In this episode, we have a conversation with, registered physiotherapist and climber, Quinn Turner. We found Quinn’s Instagram account @alpine.physio and was truly inspired by his content. Quinn resides in North Vancouver BC where he works out of Body Works Sports Physiotherapy and Kinematics Sports Medicine & Rehab. He began his studies at the University of Calgary obtaining a BSc in kinesiology and later receiving his Masters from the University of Alberta. Quinn specializes in concussion and vestibular rehabilitation but treats a wide range of ailments found in the life of a climber. Like all of us, Quinn has a strong passion for the mountains. He is an experienced Nordic skier, hiker, and climber. In our conversation, we cover topics such as the accidents that inspired him to become a physio, concussions, their severity, symptoms, and the healing process, the physics of helmets and their effectiveness in climbing, we discuss evidence-based rehabilitation and outdated medical practices that are still being prescribed today, and finally, we dive deep into the mysterious pulley injury and its relation to crimping and dynamic movement.
