Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy improves a variety of health conditions associated with different areas of the body, including neuromusculoskeletal, cardiovascular, neurological and respiratory conditions.

What is physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy involves diagnosing and treating dysfunctions, and acute and chronic injuries. Physiotherapists use manual techniques such as soft tissue and joint mobilization, passive and active stretching, muscle activation and energy techniques, and rehabilitative exercise under the sports medicine model of care.

What conditions can physiotherapy treat?

A physiotherapist is well-trained at assessing injuries to the muscles and joints of the body, including muscle strains, ligament sprains, tendon tears, and chronic repetitive injuries. Physiotherapy can also be key in reducing healing time and easing the acute symptoms caused by whiplash injuries, surgery, slip and fall accidents, sports injuries, and other disruptions in mobility.

  • Recovery and prevention of sports injuries
