In-Clinic Physiotherapy

 

Sometimes our body needs small modifications in order to come back into alignment and balance.

At times it’s as simple as stopping or adjusting certain activities for a period of time to allow healing to take place. Other conditions might require a more hands-on guided approach to rehabilitation.

We may use manual joint mobilization and manipulation, soft tissue release, nerve mobilization and exercise therapy.
