Training for the Victoria Half or Sprint Triathlon? Prepare Your Body at Aria Health and Wellness Clinic

On Sunday, July 13, 2025, athletes from across Canada will descend on Vancouver Island to compete in the iconic Victoria Half Triathlon. Whether you’re taking on the full Half distance or opting for the Sprint race, your body will face intense physical demands. At Aria Health and Wellness Clinic, our integrated care approach—led by Dr. Amar Sandhu—can help you train smart, stay injury-free, and recover efficiently for race day.

Half vs. Sprint: Different Demands, Same Need for Preparation

While the Sprint distance may be shorter, it’s anything but easy. It requires high-intensity output over a shorter time frame, placing sharp demands on speed, agility, and cardiovascular endurance. The Half, on the other hand, is a true test of stamina—featuring longer swim, bike, and run segments that stress your joints, spine, and soft tissues over extended periods. Both events require a strong, well-aligned body to perform at its best.

That’s where chiropractic care comes in. Victoria Chiropractor Dr. Sandhu, who has advanced training in sports injury rehab and biomechanics, offers personalized care plans to address the specific needs of each athlete. Whether you’re training for power or endurance, our team helps you maintain proper spinal alignment, optimize muscle balance, and prevent repetitive strain injuries.

Integrated Care for Peak Triathlon Performance

Care here doesn’t stop at adjustments. We incorporate therapeutic modalities like Active Release Techniques (ART®), Graston®, and Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP®), alongside traction therapy and custom rehab exercises. This well-rounded approach enhances joint mobility, reduces inflammation, and supports the neuromuscular coordination essential for triathlon performance.

Our multidisciplinary team also works alongside massage therapists, Pilates instructors, and kinesiologists to ensure every aspect of your training and recovery is covered.
