PHYSIOTHERAPY
Physiotherapists are highly educated healthcare professionals who evaluate physical function, and work with people to help them restore and maintain their strength and mobility while relieving their pain.
Our physiotherapists have a detailed understanding of how the body works, and the impact environmental and lifestyle factors can have on your physical condition. A physiotherapist will work with you and your healthcare team to provide a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs, and that focuses on achieving your highest level of physical well-being.
More than 13,000 physiotherapists are licensed to practise in Canada. They are all university-trained in anatomy, physiology, psychology and sociology, and are able to provide diagnoses and therapeutic intervention for all of the body's systems.
