Physiotherapy
Think back to that time in life when you felt your very best.
A time when you weren’t limited by pain or fear of moving the wrong way and ending up stuck.

Maybe it meant running around with your kids, or grand kids, full of energy and vigour. We’re here to help you get that back!
Whether it’s an injury or diagnosis that’s holding you back, or pain that you can’t quite figure out, Physiotherapy will help you feel your best and get you back to doing what you love!

What does Physiotherapy Treatment Look Like?
Your first appointment will be an assessment. Your physiotherapist will take a detailed health history and find out what’s bothering you. They’ll ask lots of questions to understand your unique circumstances and goals.
Next, your physiotherapist will perform some tests to assess how you’re moving and gain a better understanding of what’s happening in your body. Be prepared to move a little here!
|
Once your physiotherapist has gathered your history and performed tests specific to your concerns, they’ll propose a treatment plan. As long as it’s appropriate, your first visit will include treatment. Treatment could include: manual therapy, exercise, movement, acupuncture, ultrasound, laser, paraffin wax, or cold therapy. You’ll leave with a plan for how to move forward and maybe even a little homework - but don’t worry! We provide videos, pictures and written instructions to help you remember your exercises so you can perform them at home. |

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Sarah Micks is amazing! I experienced a tennis elbow injury on my dominant left arm that was really aggravating me. She was able to understand and adhere to my needs to recommend exercises that would allow me to engage in physical activities and daily life activities in the short and long term. In 2 months of physio with Sarah, my arm is feeling nearly 100% again. - Shawn G |

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 7 months ago Wendy Hancock is a spectacular physiotherapist. Not only is she highly skilled and educated in her craft, she truly takes the time needed to determine the root cause of your pain or discomfort and explains her proposed treatment plan in great detail until she is certain you understand everything. She takes the time that you need and has a wonderful listening ear. Many times, what I thought was the source of my pain was not the source at all and Wendy determined what needed to be done and I left pain free! I simply cannot recommend her services enough! - N.White |
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ After suffering with limited mobility for 4 months due to pain and discomfort in my foot, I went to Fit For Life. - Shirley G |
