Groms Physio & Co
Tell us about your business and why you should receive this award!
Thank you for this nomination - wow! Groms Physio + Co has just celebrated our 2nd birthday, and we are proud to be among so many Squamish Small Businesses. Groms Physio + Co is a paediatric multidisciplinary health care clinic catering to kids (and moms!) in the Sea to Sky. The team naturally collaborates, we are exceptionally passionate, and we all love to live, work and play on the unceded traditional territory of the Squamish Nation, St'át'imc Nation Coast Salish Peoples. Some core values we strive to provide Squamish with include:
Collaborative Care: Our clinic brings together a diverse team of healthcare professionals, including Physiotherapists, Massage Therapists, Rehab Assistants, Strength and Conditioning Coaches, Clinical counsellors, Psychologists, Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners, and of course therapy-dogs to ensures that every Grom and Mom in Squamish receives well-rounded, personalized care for their physical, emotional, and developmental needs.
Child-Centered Environment: If you've ever been inside our clinic, it doesn't look like a typical health-care facility. Our walls are covered with murals, there are toys and games everywhere, and there's laughter beaming from the walls (thanks to our neighbours for their patience). Our mission is to create a safe, welcoming, inclusive atmosphere for all children regardless of gender, race, sexuality, ability or diagnosis.
Community Engagement: We actively host and participate in local events and initiatives to empower families with knowledge about child health and wellness. Our commitment to community education fosters healthier lifestyles and preventive care.
Accessibility and Inclusivity: We strive to make our services accessible to all families, including virtual and telephone appointments. Our mission is that every child, regardless of background, can receive the care they need. We also now collaborate with the Squamish Nation to provide Physiotherapy services for children on the reserve, helping to remove barriers to access health care for children, teens and families in the corridor.
