What is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is treatment to restore, maintain, and make the most of a patient’s
mobility, function, and well-being. Physiotherapy helps through physical
rehabilitation, injury prevention, and health and fitness. Physiotherapists get you
involved in your own recovery. 

What is a physiotherapist’s expertise? 

Physiotherapists study the science of movement. They learn how to
pinpoint an injury’s root causes.

When should I go see a physiotherapist?

Think about getting physiotherapy if you have an injury, or chronic pain
that affects how you function everyday. A doctor may refer you to
physiotherapy after surgery such as a hip replacement, or an event such
as a heart attack or stroke.
If you are planning to use health insurance to help cover the cost of
physiotherapy, remember to visit your insurance company's website to
ensure the physiotherapist is covered. If the physiotherapist is not
covered by that insurance company you will not be able to use your
benefits and will need to pay the full cost of treatment. 

What problems do physiotherapists treat?

Physiotherapists focus on both prevention and rehabilitation. Treatment
can be for problems caused by injury, disease or disability. Here are some
examples:
 Neck and back pain caused by problems in the muscles and
skeleton
 Problems in the bones, joints, muscles and ligaments, such as
arthritis and the after-effects of amputation
 Lung problems such as asthma
 Disability as a result of heart problems
 Pelvic issues, such as bladder and bowel problems related to
childbirth
 Loss of mobility because of trauma to the brain or spine, or due to
diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis
 Fatigue, pain, swelling, stiffness and loss of muscle strength, for
example during cancer treatment, or palliative care 

What can I expect at physiotherapy?

Your session will be unique, because it is all about you and your
particular needs. In general, here’s what happens:

 The physiotherapist learns about your medical history
 The physiotherapist assesses and diagnoses your condition
 You receive a treatment plan that sets goals for you
 You are prescribed a course of exercises and any assistive devices
needed

Acupuncture

It is believed that the insertion of these fine needles balance the flow of energy (or Qi) in the meridians and as a result, restores your health.
