COMPLEX INJURIES AND PERSISTENT PAIN
Some injuries don't follow the usual timeline. It might be chronic back pain or sciatica that keeps coming back, an ankle sprain that never quite recovered, a shoulder that's bothered you for years, or several problems that seem tangled together. Many of the people we see have already tried treatment and are still dealing with pain and functional loss. Often there's more to the situation that's still worth working out.
We start by getting to know your whole story, and your first visit gives us 75 minutes to do it. We'll go through how your injury started, how it's changed, and everything you've tried so far. Then we'll take a thorough look at how you move and what aggravates or eases your symptoms, explain what we find in plain language, and answer your questions.
From there we'll build a plan around you as a whole person, not just the area that hurts. That might combine hands-on treatment, progressive exercise, and education, with a gradual return to the things you've had to set aside. When pain itself has become a big part of your condition, we'll work on that too, including sleep, stress, and what work and life are asking of you.
Parts of your plan may be delivered by our registered kinesiologist, working under your physiotherapist's supervision, and your plan may also include massage therapy. When it helps, we coordinate with your physician and other providers.
Direct billing is available for all major insurance providers.
