Clinical Pilates offered by a Chiropractor or Physiotherapist combines targeted Pilates-based exercises with professional care to support rehabilitation, posture correction, and core stability. This approach is tailored to individual needs, following an assessment by the Chiropractor or Physiotherapist. Sessions may include gentle chiropractic adjustments to improve joint alignment and mobility, enhancing the effectiveness of the exercises. This integrated method is especially beneficial for those recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, or looking to prevent future musculoskeletal issues.

Dr. Ava Clark
Dr. Ava Clark
Dr. Ava Clark was born and raised in Spruce Grove, Alberta, and earned her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the University of Western States in Portland, Oregon. After graduation, she made Saskatoon her home and has enjoyed being part of the community ever since.
Growing up, Dr. Ava was actively involved in dance and gymnastics—activities she continues to enjoy today. Her personal experience with chiropractic care began after undergoing scoliosis surgery as a teenager. Chiropractic treatment became an important part of her recovery and wellness journey, providing significant relief and inspiring her passion for helping others improve their quality of life.
Dr. Ava has advanced training in the Webster Technique, a specialized chiropractic assessment and adjustment approach commonly used in perinatal care. She is also trained in pediatric craniosacral therapy, medical acupuncture, and Clinical Pilates. She believes in a whole-body approach to health and is committed to creating individualized treatment plans that address each patient’s unique needs and goals.
When she’s not in the clinic, Dr. Ava enjoys spending time with her dog, Stevie, dancing, exploring the outdoors, and discovering new local restaurants around Saskatoon!

Brieanna Gonzalez
Brieanna Gonzalez
Brieanna graduated from the University of Saskatchewan in 2021 with a master’s degree in physical therapy. Her background is a Bachelor of Science in Animal Bioscience from the U of S. Her interests are orthopedics, neurological rehabilitation, geriatrics, and mobile therapy.
I take a functional approach to rehabilitation and believe it’s essential to treat the whole person, not just the injury/disease. I acknowledge that every client is unique and provide individualized treatment carefully considering age, injury, and previous activity level. I enjoy empowering my clients through education and providing tools for self-management. I am passionate about helping my clients get back to doing what they love to do regardless of the injury/disease they face.
When Brieanna isn’t in the clinic, she enjoys staying active while participating in spin classes and workout classes, hiking, playing ringette, softball, and beach volleyball. She also enjoys spending time in the garden, cooking, and checking out local coffee shops around Saskatoon.
