Physiotherapy helps to restore movement and function through a process which actively involves and educates patients in their own healthcare. The therapist will assess and implement preventive and therapeutic courses of physical intervention. Physiotherapy can help you explore your current abilities and functional needs so the therapist can plan treatments that are consistent with your goals and general health status.
Our physiotherapists specialize in the following areas:
- Clinical electrotherapies (i.e. IFC, TENS, ultrasound therapy, etc.)

Do I need a doctor’s referral for physiotherapy?*
You may not need a doctor’s note or prescription for Physiotherapy. Physiotherapy can be effective as a primary treatment, or as an adjunct to other therapeutic interventions such as chiropractic care and massage therapy. It may also be recommended in the co-management of certain medical illnesses.
