Live Active. Live Well.

Whether it’s work or play, our physiotherapists are dedicated to evaluating, restoring and enhancing physical function and independence. We will help you get back to what you like to do.

Move Better. Feel Better. Live Better

GET BACK TO WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO

Our Physiotherapists use an approach that considers the whole person and can provide treatment for musculoskeletal, neurological, cardiovascular, and respiratory conditions. We will start with an initial assessment where we will find the root of your problem. From here we will perform a treatment to get you going on your rehab.

The frequency of subsequent treatments are based on the type of injury and its severity. Considering your best interests, the course of treatment is outlined by you and your physiotherapist to suit your schedule and will vary from patient to patient. We are in communication with your family doctor throughout your rehab to provide you with the best care available.

Treatment is covered by WCB, MPI and most Private Insurers like Blue Cross, Great West Life, Sunlife, Greenshield and others. Please check with your Insurance provider if they require a doctors prescription for treatment under your policy.
