Treatment Approach:

At Restore Physiotherapy you will get the undivided attention of your physiotherapist for the entire duration of your treatment session. You can choose to book either a 30 or 60- minute appointment. This focused, one-to-one approach facilitates the development of a more comprehensive treatment plan and allows for more productive treatment sessions with more time for patient education, manual techniques, and supervised exercise.

Our aim is to identify and correct the dysfunctional movement patterns that are often at the root of pain and injury. This facilitates a more complete rehab process, and empowers the patient with the knowledge of what to do to prevent, minimize, or self-manage reoccurrences.

We offer intervention across the spectrum of wellness and function — from preventative screenings to injury rehabilitation, to peak sports performance — and will create an individualized plan to help you reach your goals.

Treatment Options include:

Manual therapy – hands on treatment including joint mobilization or manipulation and soft tissue techniques

Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) – the use of thin acupuncture-type needles to release chronically tight muscle bands with the goal of reducing pain, reestablishing optimal nerve and muscle function and restoring normal mobility

Therapeutic taping and bracing – to support healing tissues or accelerate return to activity

Exercise prescription – ranging from specific stabilization exercises to high-level strength, balance and agility retraining

Postural re-education – to restore healthy postures and address issues in your work, school or athletic environment that may be contributing to poor posture or technique

Electrotherapeutic modalities – to reduce pain, swelling and spasm and facilitate healing

Traditional Acupuncture – An ancient form of Chinese medicine that is used as an adjunct to physiotherapy treatment to accelerate natural healing, reduce pain and muscle tension, and improve energy and function.
