About the treatment

What is physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is an assessment-based health profession focused on how your body moves and functions. A physiotherapist looks at the joints, muscles, nerves and movement patterns involved in your pain or injury, then builds a plan to help you move more comfortably and get back to what you need to do.

Care is usually active. Alongside hands-on treatment, most plans include exercise and education, so you understand what is going on and can keep making progress between visits. Physiotherapy is used for recent injuries, longstanding pain, recovery after surgery, and conditions that affect strength, balance or mobility.

Physiotherapists in British Columbia are regulated health professionals, registered with the College of Health and Care Professionals of BC. You do not need a doctor's referral to book, although some insurance plans ask for one before they reimburse.

What treatment may include

  • Manual therapy

    Hands-on techniques such as joint mobilization and soft tissue work, used to ease pain and stiffness and make movement easier.

  • Exercise therapy

    A program of strengthening, mobility and control exercises matched to your injury and goals, and progressed as you improve.

  • Education and self-management

    A clear explanation of your condition, what to expect from recovery, and how to manage activity and flare-ups day to day.

  • Return to activity

    A graded plan for getting back to work, sport or daily tasks, with milestones you can track.

  • Supporting treatments

    Where appropriate, your physiotherapist may suggest other options available at the clinic, such as shockwave therapy, dry needling or bracing.

What to expect

Your visit, step by step.

  1. 1

    Assessment and history

    Your physiotherapist asks about your symptoms, how they started, your health history, and what you want to get back to.

  2. 2

    Movement testing

    They look at how the area moves and test strength, flexibility and joint function, including nearby areas that may be contributing.

  3. 3

    Treatment plan

    You go over what the assessment found, the treatment options, and a realistic plan and timeline.

  4. 4

    Care and education

    Treatment often begins at the first visit, combining hands-on care with an explanation of your condition and how to manage it.

  5. 5

    Exercise plan and progress tracking

    You leave with exercises to do at home, and each visit reviews your progress and adjusts the plan.

Before your visit

Good to know.

  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing that lets the area be seen and moved — shorts for a knee or hip concern, a tank top for a shoulder.
  • Bring a list of your medications, any imaging or specialist reports, and your extended health or claim details.
  • Some soreness after a first assessment or a new exercise is common and usually settles within a day or two. Let your physiotherapist know if it does not.
  • Your home exercises are a big part of how physiotherapy works, so expect to do some work between visits.
  • New numbness around the groin, loss of bladder or bowel control, or severe unexplained pain needs emergency care rather than an appointment.
