Treatments

Gliding, kneading, pressing, tapping or vibrating the soft tissues of the body to improve health.

Inserting fine, medical-grade needles into the skin at various points of the body to relieve pain and for other health benefits.

An outstanding new physiotherapy treatment used by individually trained physiotherapists assisting in passive physiological patterns and movements of the patient. Mulligan mobilizations are used everywhere including ankle, knee, back and shoulder. Gliding the patients restricted joints from a stiff and immobile position to a functional and pain free range.

Used by specifically qualified and educated therapists assisting in sustained pressures/tensions into the associated areas where patients suffer pain and discomfort. The therapist assists in stretching out and maintaining the fascia (fascia is the connective tissue of the body which covers and penetrates the vascular system, nervous system and muscular system of the body) of the patient. During this treatment the fascia is mobilized from its restricted areas, decreasing tension and restoring normal movements and ranges.

Various types of exercise to strengthen or limber up muscles, soft tissue, joints, and ligaments.

The focus of this treatment technique is to decreasing joint stiffness, decrease muscle spasms, modulate pain levels and reduce nerve impingement. Manual and machine traction available for Cervical, Thoracic and Lumbar spine.

Custom-fit footwear to reduce foot, knee, hip and back pain, while optimizing biomechanics and posture.

Medical devices to immobilize parts of the body (such as the knee or the elbow) to reduce pain and promote healing.

The purpose of this modality is to modulate pain, improve the connective tissue extensibility, minimize and eliminate inflammation, decrease healing time, avoid muscle spasms and decrease joint restrictions.

The TENS unit assists in the management of pain. Current evidence specifies central inhibition of neurotransmission through the Pain Gate Theory, the end result felt by the patient is decreased pain and improved quality of life. The TENS units (available for purchase) are ideal for both acute and chronic conditions.

IFC therapy focuses on muscle stimulation pads which gear towards decreasing pain levels by diminishing the rate of neurotransmission, as well as reducing the rate of available receptors. Moreover, the IFC therapy helps to improve range of motion and strength. Russian, Premodualted and Interferential currents most frequently used.

With increased thermal effects and circulation, wax baths are an excellent treatment modality to assist those suffering from arthritis, carpal tunnel, fibromyalgia, muscle and joint pain +/- stiffness.

Administering the thermal effects to optimize metabolic rate, capillary permeability, muscle strength and decrease muscle spasms, assisting in pain levels, joint stiffness, muscle spasms and comfort.

Recent research establishes laser therapy to be effective in treating many conditions such as pressure sores, plantar fasciitis and surgical wounds by relieving pain and promoting quicker healing.

Exercises that focus on the injured body part to gently return it to optimal health and function.

Assistance and education about physical fitness, including regular workouts.

Exercise programs designed to improve your ability to do manual labor or other physically-intensive tasks.

Therapy to help you recover from injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident (such as whiplash).

We provide education on workplace safety and how to avoid accidents and injuries. For those injured on the job, we provide exercises and physical therapies designed to return to full function and return to everyday living.
