  • What is physiotherapy and how can it help me?

    Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that focuses on helping individuals recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions, and improve mobility through movement-based treatments, exercises, and education. Whether you’re dealing with back pain, sports injuries, or post-surgery rehabilitation, physiotherapy can help alleviate pain and restore function.

  • How long will my physiotherapy sessions last?

  • What can I expect during my first visit?

    During your first visit, your physiotherapist will conduct a thorough assessment, which may include physical tests and asking about your medical history and lifestyle. Based on this, a personalized treatment plan will be created to address your specific needs.

  • Is physiotherapy covered by insurance in Winnipeg?

    Most insurance plans in Winnipeg cover physiotherapy services, either fully or partially. Be sure to check with your insurance provider for the specific details of your coverage, and we can help you with any paperwork.

  • How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

    The number of physiotherapy sessions required will depend on your condition and goals. Some individuals may experience improvement after just a few sessions, while others may need more extended treatment. Your physiotherapist will give you a plan tailored to your needs.

  • What should I wear to my physiotherapy appointment?

    Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for easy movement. If you’re receiving treatment for a specific body part (e.g., knee, back, or shoulder), we recommend wearing attire that allows your physiotherapist to easily access the area.

  • Can physiotherapy help with chronic pain management?

    Yes, physiotherapy is an effective treatment for chronic pain management. Through techniques like manual therapy, exercise programs, and education, we can help reduce pain, improve function, and increase overall quality of life.

  • What is the difference between physiotherapy and chiropractic care?

    While both physiotherapy and chiropractic care focus on improving movement and pain relief, physiotherapists generally emphasize exercises, manual therapy, and rehabilitation programs, while chiropractors often focus on spinal adjustments. Each approach is valuable, depending on the condition being treated.
