We pride ourselves on a unique patient-centred approach to physiotherapy. We believe each patient and their specific case deserves full attention & expertise. That’s why we only provide one-on-one physiotherapy sessions.
Our treatments always take place in confidential & private therapy rooms. We believe in a hands-on manual approach with a focus on soft tissue muscle release.
Our physios work with our chiropractors and massage therapists. Our team is trained in various treatment options: exercise prescription, soft tissue therapy, shockwave therapy, laser therapy, spinal decompression, & more.
Watch the following video to understand how a typical physio treatment is performed. This specific example is for a patient who is suffering with knee pain.
You’ll be able to tell how comfortable and hands-on the treatment sessions are. Obviously not each treatment is identical as it is customized to your symptoms and exact condition.
