Physiotherapy in Edmonton
What Is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapists devise hands- on treatment plans that are customized to an individual’s injury, condition, goals and capabilities.
The most common reasons to see a physiotherapist are to eliminate pain, improve function and optimize performance. This is achieved with a treatment plan that addresses the root cause of the condition, and by providing treatment in the form of manual therapy, exercise prescription, physical modalities, lifestyle modification and education.
What to Expect
At your first visit you will spend 45 minutes to one hour with your physiotherapist in a private setting. You will experience:
- A detailed history of your current problem as well as your overall health.
- A physical examination of your injury or areas of concern.
- Measurement of current function and symptoms.
- Consultation on your goals and commitment to the rehab process.
- Focused treatment plan that takes into consideration your abilities.
- Home exercises to do between appointments to get the best results.
- To begin in-person treatment on day one.
Additional Appointment(s)
Follow-up appointments are booked for 30 minutes and are also spent one-on-one with your physiotherapist. The majority of your “hands-on” treatment is provided in follow-up appointments. Our Physiotherapists are trained to constantly evaluate your condition to provide the right treatment at the right time.
