Rehabilitation is a process designed to help individuals recover from injuries, illnesses, or diseases to regain their optimal physical, mental, and/or cognitive function. In physiotherapy, rehabilitation specifically focuses on restoring physical abilities, reducing pain, and improving quality of life after a health event.

You should consider seeing a physiotherapist if you experience: * Persistent pain (e.g., back pain, neck pain, joint pain) * Difficulty with movement or balance * Recovery from an injury, surgery, or stroke * Sports-related injuries * Neurological conditions (e.g., Parkinson’s, MS) * Postural problems * Desire to improve physical performance or prevent injuries

While a doctor’s referral is often helpful for insurance purposes or complex cases, in many instances, you do not need one to directly access physiotherapy services. It’s always best to check with your insurance provider or contact us directly to confirm.

Your first session will involve a thorough assessment. Our physiotherapist will discuss your medical history, symptoms, and lifestyle. They will then conduct a physical examination to diagnose your condition. Based on this, a personalized treatment plan will be discussed with you, and initial treatment may begin.

The duration of a session can vary depending on the specific treatment and your condition, but typically, an initial assessment might last 45-60 minutes, while follow-up sessions usually range from 30-45 minutes.

The number of sessions required varies greatly depending on the nature and severity of your condition, your adherence to the treatment plan, and your individual response to therapy. Your physiotherapist will provide an estimated treatment timeline after your initial assessment.
