Become Healthier, Stronger,
and More Active With Physiotherapy

Let Great One Health help you achieve a healthy, strong, and active lifestyle
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle takes work, some people try to mask their symptoms with anti-inflammatory or pain-relieving medications, while others unfortunately give up on the idea of being active all together. Luckily, there is an alternative option: physiotherapy.  With the help of a physiotherapist, it is possible to live a pain-free, healthy lifestyle, and to get back to doing the things you love.

What is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is generally comprised of three important phases: pain relief, strengthening, and functional integration. Some people are apprehensive toward physiotherapy because they believe it will hurt them; however, the opposite is usually true. Physiotherapy is aimed at pain relief and strengthening, and your physiotherapist will make sure that your treatment plan won’t bring you any pain or discomfort.

How can Physiotherapy help me?

A physiotherapist will cater a treatment plan around specific movements designed to increase your strength, flexibility, balance, and overall mobility.

A physiotherapist is highly trained in assessing movement, and analyzing mobility issues with walking, running, jumping, bending, stretching, and almost every other form of physical activity or movement.

Your physiotherapist can pinpoint problem areas and create a customized treatment plan aimed at improving those areas. Through in-clinic sessions and at-home exercises, patients strengthen their muscles and joints, improve their balance, build endurance, and experience pain relief, all without the unwanted harmful risks of drugs or surgery.

What Should I Expect?

Your physiotherapist will work closely with you to evaluate your mobility, balance, range of motion, and severity of pain. Your physical goals will also be taken into account when creating your treatment plan, as well as any health risks that may be holding you back. At your initial evaluation, you may be asked to perform basic movements, such as sitting down, standing up, walking, lifting, stretching, or other motions.

Once your physiotherapist has a clear picture of what you need, he or she will begin constructing a treatment plan to help relieve your pain and achieve your goals.

Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy

The pelvic floor has an important role in urogenital health, respiration and spinal/postural stability.
The pelvic floor muscles are located between the coccyx (tailbone) and the pubic bone. Physiotherapist may be able to support pelvic floor dysfunction by using a combination of Physiotherapy techniques to treat the pelvic floor, the lower back, tailbone, pubic bone and hips(because of the inter-connectedness of these areas to the pelvic floor), as well as providing you with a tailored exercise program allowing you to progress at a safe pace.
