Our approach grew from decades of helping elite athletes and active people recover. Vive brings that experience into a setting where your goals shape the care.
Maybe you want to get back on the pickleball court, keep up with your kids, or feel less restricted in your next workout. Whatever brings you here, we start by listening.
You don’t need to know which technique or device to choose. That’s where our team comes in.
RECOVERY FOR THE DEMANDS OF PRO RUGBY
PHYSICAL SPORT. PERSONAL CARE.
Vive has served as an official recovery provider for Rugby Football Club Los Angeles and now California Legion. We bring that hands-on recovery experience to active people with goals of their own.
Ken and Cindy Vick founded Vive to make the recovery expertise used in elite sport accessible to people who want to stay active and do more of what they love.
Ken Vick
Co-founder · Human Performance Director
Ken’s background spans decades of performance coaching and leadership, supporting athletes and organizations across 11 Olympic Games and 17 countries. His work centers on understanding what helps people recover, adapt, and perform—and turning that knowledge into practical plans.
At Vive, Ken guides the methods, technology, and recovery systems behind your experience. His focus: connect the science to your goals, with clear guidance you can put to use.
Cindy Vick
Co-founder · Tissue Specialist
Cindy is a certified massage therapist whose experience includes supporting hundreds of NFL players and Olympians from multiple nations. Working alongside performance coaches and sports medicine professionals has shaped her approach to hands-on care.
She combines deep tissue work, active release, assisted stretching, and instrument-assisted techniques to address individual needs. At Vive, that experience supports a personal goal: helping you move better and feel less restricted in the activities that matter to you.
“Amazing from the moment you walk in. Very welcoming and they GET IT.”

THE THINKING BEHIND YOUR SESSION
PERSONAL GUIDANCE. A PURPOSE FOR EVERY STEP.
Our custom recovery algorithm was developed for athletes at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. We’ve continued to refine it over the years to guide the choices we make with you.
We consider four pillars—Tissue, Energy, Nervous System, and Mindset—to help identify where to focus your recovery that day.
Your goals, how you feel, and your feedback help our team select the right combination of hands-on care and technology.
