Physiotherapy is an independent health care profession dedicated to enhancing and restoring mobility. This profession is unique by its advanced understanding of diagnosis and treatment of movement disorders. The goal of physiotherapy is to promote functional independence and to improve quality of life.

Physiotherapists offer valuable treatment techniques to assist you in achieving your specific physical goals, which may include: Restoring mobility after surgery Managing and reducing pain Treating sports-related injuries Providing pre and post-natal care Improving overall coordination and balance Improving the physical complications of cancer and its treatment Managing physical limitations or disabilities associated with degenerative diseases (i.e. osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, spinal stenosis) Preventing and treating repetitive strain injuries, bursitis, ligament sprains, dislocations, pulled muscles and joint strains Rehabilitation following surgery, illness or trauma

Although it is not necessary to see a doctor prior to receiving physiotherapy treatment, in some circumstances your therapist may ask you to see your doctor for further medical investigation. A referral to your doctor may also be warranted if your condition does not progress typically with physiotherapy intervention.

In most cases, you do not require a referral from your doctor (check your insurance policy to see if a referral is a requirement). Simply contact us and set up an appointment with a therapist for a time that suits you.

Each session typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes depending on your treatment plan. At Motion Matters we are sensitive to your time demands. Following your assessment your physiotherapist will be able to develop an individual treatment plan tailored to your condition and schedule.
