Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy is used to assess and treat symptoms and impairments in order to identify causes of decreased function and to promote mobility and quality of life. Your initial assessment will include an in-depth health and injury history, observation and physical tests. Based on our findings and your goals, we’ll develop a treatment plan that may include therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, acupuncture and taping, muscle stimulation, manipulation and soft tissue massage, or other modalities.
