Services 

Physiotherapists are primary healthcare professionals with a significant role in health promotion and treatment of injury and disease. They combine their in-depth knowledge of the body and how it works with specialized hands-on clinical skills to assess, diagnose, and treat symptoms of dysfunction, injury or disability. 

Our Dry needling services involves identifying the source of the pain and advancing a small filament needle into the related muscles, eliciting a small twitch response and then relaxing of the muscle! The identification and stimulation of these trigger points can “reboot” the muscle to alleviate both the original problem area as well as the secondary pain. Many patients experience dramatic pain relief and improved function in just a few treatments, with lasting relief.

Acupuncture is an ancient practice supported by modern medicine. It consists of using thin, sterile needles to stimulate points that engage the body’s own healing mechanisms. Acupuncture is used to relieve pain, promote healing after injury or surgery, address digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, and reproductive health, support weight loss, smoking cessation and addictions treatment, enhance immunity and support overall health. Your TCM practitioner may also utilize herbal and dietary support. Acupuncture and TCM can be used as a standalone therapy or alongside other forms of care.

Therapeutic massage can benefit a broad range of conditions from headaches, anxiety and fibromyalgia to joint dysfunction, repetitive strain injuries, low back pain and whiplash. Massage works to reduce postural imbalances and muscle tension while regular treatments have proven to be an effective tool for stress and pain management.

As we age, most of us will experience decreases in flexibility, strength, balance, coordination and endurance. Unfortunately, these changes can increase the risk of falling. Each year over 33% of elderly Canadians experience a fall. About half of these falls will result in moderate to severe injuries including sprains, fractures or head injuries. These injuries can permanently reduce mobility and independence.

Our physiotherapists will work directly with you in our regularly scheduled group exercise classes. Our program will improve your strength, balance, flexibility and coordination so that you feel more confident walking in your home and in your community.

Modern day chiropractic involves diversified manual therapies to all structures related to the area of pain and dysfunction. Starting with a thorough initial assessment, our chiropractors diagnose the cause of the pain and outline a treatment plan involving soft tissue therapies, joint mobilizations/manipulation*, exercise prescription and education.

*Chiropractic joint manipulations and adjustments involve specific application of a gentle thrust to affected joints resulting in increased pain-free range of motion. Often times there is an audible popping sound which is gas released within the joint capsule.
