Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy involves assessment, management, and restoration of physical function and mobility. Our Ottawa Physiotherapists treat physical impairments and promote health and wellness.
How do physiotherapists help?
Physiotherapists are highly trained practitioners who specialize in the assessment and restoration of movement and dysfunction while focusing on health promotion and injury and disease prevention. Whether you are suffering from an acute injury, a chronic degenerative condition, recovering from surgery, or would like to prevent injuries by maintaining an active, healthy lifestyle, physiotherapy can help.
