In this episode, Nick sits down with Matt, one of the physiotherapists at Capital Strength, to dive into hockey injuries, hip and groin health, and the role of sport science in modern rehab and performance. Drawing from his background as a high-level hockey player, Matt shares insights into why hip and groin issues are so common in skating sports and how understanding biomechanics changes both assessment and treatment. The conversation also explores how objective data from VALD testing is shaping smarter return-to-play decisions, reducing reinjury risk, and improving collaboration between coaches and clinicians. Matt also reflects on his first six months at Capital Strength, the power of an integrated team environment, and why community and culture matter just as much as the technology, or more!
