Physiotherapy is an important part of health care service. It aims to reduce pain, gain strength and flexibility by evaluating and restoring strength, endurance, movement and physical abilities affected by injury, disease or disability. Physiotherapy offers a variety of hands-on treatments, exercises and education that help maximize one's ability to function.
The focus is on drug-free pain relief and maximum function. During an assessment the physiotherapist will ask questions regarding medical history and the cause of the injury. Observations are made regarding movement, posture and balance. Various tests are performed to assess joints, muscles, ligaments and nerves. An individualized treatment plan is then developed with the aim of restoring normal function and mobility.
A physiotherapist will assess and treat injuries by developing a course of action to restore function through the use of manual therapy, modalities and exercises for strengthening and conditioning. Discharge recommendations utilizing a home exercise program will be made as may a referral to our Performance Team and state of the art rehabilitation facility. This will help to improve function and quality of life by restoring movement and reducing pain.
