Services
Acupuncture
Our certified physiotherapists integrate Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture with modern techniques to treat chronic pain, headaches, and musculoskeletal conditions. Using sterile needles at acupressure points, we restore bodily balance and promote natural healing. This evidence-based approach complements other treatments like manual therapy and exercise programs, offering patients a holistic path to pain relief and improved functionality.
Concussion Management
Expert Physio provides specialized concussion care through CCMI-certified practitioners. Our protocol includes baseline testing, acute phase management, and post-concussion rehabilitation. We address symptoms like dizziness, headaches, and cognitive impairment through progressive recovery plans, working closely with physicians to ensure safe return-to-activity timelines while prioritizing long-term brain health.
Custom Orthotics
We offer precision-crafted orthotics to correct biomechanical imbalances affecting feet, legs, and spine. Our assessment identifies structural issues causing pain, creating customized solutions that improve alignment and reduce stress on joints. Combined with strengthening exercises, these orthotics provide long-term relief for conditions like plantar fasciitis, flat feet, and knee pain.
Sports Injury Treatment
Our sports physiotherapy focuses on rapid recovery and injury prevention for athletes of all levels. Through comprehensive assessments, we develop targeted rehabilitation programs incorporating manual therapy, strength training, and sport-specific conditioning. We address common injuries like sprains, tendinopathies, and post-operative recovery while implementing preventive strategies to reduce re-injury risks.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Specialized treatment for dizziness, vertigo, and balance disorders using evidence-based techniques. Our therapists address inner ear dysfunction through customized exercise programs that improve gaze stability, reduce dizziness, and enhance overall balance. This structured approach helps patients regain independence and safely return to daily activities.
