Exercise Therapy

Exercise therapy uses a planned regimen of physical activities such as stretching or strengthening to reach particular therapeutic goals. The intended outcome of this type of therapy is to reduce pain and to restore proper musculoskeletal function. It is our belief that every treatment plan should hold therapeutic exercise as a primary facet to help you in your recovery.

Manual Therapy

In the discipline of physiotherapy, manual therapists are trained to identify and diagnose restrictions in movement in the spine, arms, and legs. Through graded, hands-on techniques our therapists can help reduce muscle tightness and pain, improve joint movement, and generally improve function.

FDN/IMS

Functional Dry Needling or Intramuscular Stimulation is a technique using fine needles to assist your body in resolving tension or facilitate more action. As a result it can assist in providing pain relief from strains, sprains, and nerve irritation or be used to assist in muscle retraining. This highly popular therapy is available at Fort Physio upon consultation with your therapist.

Sport Specific Assessment

A sport specific assessment allows your physiotherapist to perform a musculoskeletal screening and injury assessment to help improve your performance and reduce injury in a specific sports discipline. Using this information your physio can help improve your movement and technique through a plan tailored to your needs as an athlete.

Registered massage therapy

Registered Massage Therapy is a health profession available for the purposes of developing, maintaining, rehabilitating or augmenting physical function, or relieving pain or promoting health. Massage Therapy is effective in reducing muscle tension, promoting relaxation, alleviating pain, reducing inflammation, increasing range of motion, increasing blood circulation, and helping in the healing process after injury. We have two massage rooms in which our massage therapists will assess, treat and support you.

Concussion care

We have partnered with HeadCheck Health to improve the level of concussion care in the community. As part of their Clinic Partner Program, we use HeadCheck’s mobile and web-based technology to assist in the assessment and management of concussions. HeadCheck Health provides a mobile and web-based system that helps create a concussion health record for our clients and complete both baseline and post-injury assessments throughout the concussion management process.

ICBC Physio care
