Manual Therapy

This physiotherapy treatment uses manipulative, hands-on techniques such as soft tissue mobilization, myofascial release, joint manipulation, massage therapy, various connective tissue techniques, mobilization of joints, and mobilization of neural (nerve) tissues. Our physiotherapists and other healthcare providers have and receive continual extensive training in the latest manual therapy techniques and methods.

Exercise Therapy

Patients are given a unique selection of exercises based on their current symptoms and recovery needs. The objective of exercises is to assist in reversing the current limitations, alleviating pain and strengthening the body to reduce the likelihood of future injuries. For patients with chronic conditions, exercise helps reduce the frequency and severity of those conditions. It may also include the use of physical therapy.

Movement Assessment And Analysis

Our Brampton physiotherapists will perform movement assessment and analysis reviews at set intervals. This allows us to take a closer look at the mechanics of your motions and mobility. Our goal is to take the information from the assessment and analysis and apply it to your treatment plan to help reverse any insufficiencies so you can achieve greater range of motion and movement with ease.

Electrotherapy

Electrotherapy utilizes electrical impulses to help stimulate the muscles, soft tissues, and connective tendons in the affected area. It also helps promotes healing, reducing pain, and treating other types of injuries for faster recovery. It can involve electrical or sound waves that help transmit energy into the tissues that helps treat inflammation, heal injuries, reduce and eliminate scar tissue, and can assist with improving blood flow and circulation into the affected tissues.

  • Your Medical History
  • Movement Patterns
  • Range of Motion
  • Reflexes
  • Pain Level, and More!
  • Current Symptoms
  • Mobility Issues
  • Strength
  • Sensations

They will also review any relevant medical records, surgical notes, laboratory tests, and imaging results. Based on the initial consultation, your physiotherapist will discuss their findings in detail, provide education about your condition, and encourage you to help develop your individual treatment programs and goals.

Taking this approach allows our physiotherapists in Brampton to promote patient independence, including how you can better help yourself in your recovery. For instance, your physiotherapist may prescribe exercises as part of your treatment plan.

They will take the time to teach you the exercises to ensure you know how to do them correctly. Once you learn the exercises, you will be able to do them at home, in between your physiotherapy treatments. You are also taught how to set goals and how to recognize when you achieve those goals.

For our patients who have caregivers, we are happy to provide advice and education on how your caregiver can assist you when you are at home.

FAQ

Commonly Asked Questions

Physiotherapy is the science of movement and function. Physiotherapy will help anybody who experiences difficulty with movement, strength and pain. It is especially helpful for clients who have sustained injuries, strains, fractures or any loss of movement. Physiotherapy will also help anyone looking to improve their endurance, mobility and strength. Physiotherapists utilize many skills to help our clients. These include: manual therapy, exercises, acupuncture, ergonomic changes, bracing and/or orthotics. Your physiotherapist will explain each option prior to administration and inform you of its benefits or harm.

Yes! We encourage it. At Physiotherapy First, we believe in preventative health. The stronger and more mobile your body is, the less likely you are to sustain injuries. We can help with improving your flexibility, improving your posture, enhancing your sports performance, preparing you for your next race/tournament or just staying fit. Just as you would visit your dentist regularly, we stress the importance of maintaining good physical health and encourage everybody (injured or not) to be assessed by a physiotherapist regularly. If your job consists of maintaining the same position throughout the day (i.e. lab researcher, office worker, assembly line worker), we encourage that you have an ergonomic assessment conducted by one of our physiotherapists. This will ensure minimal repetitive strain as well as optimizing your body mechanics while at work.

During the initial consultation, we assess you, not your injury. Beginning with a detailed interview, your physiotherapist will learn about you, your physical health, your body mechanics and your symptoms. We then use specific assessment methods to observe how your body moves and determine all possible causes of your symptoms. We will provide you with a diagnosis if one applies. This will be followed by your first treatment session (included within the initial consult). Finally, you will be educated about your body and your symptoms, as well as provided with some advice on how to move and what to avoid. The initial consultation is in private. It is one on one with a registered physiotherapist and is mandatory before beginning any physiotherapy program.

Your follow-up frequency and duration is determined at the end of your initial consult. Keeping your goals and barriers in mind, we work together to come up with a suitable timeline. As a rule of thumb, frequency is high (2-3 times/week) during the first few weeks of the program. This is to ensure that your symptoms are controlled and that the exercises and advice are being followed. Frequency usually drops as you become stronger, more mobile and are able to maintain your goals. Follow-up sessions consist of a variety of therapeutic options that could include manual therapy, education, exercises, personal training and/or acupuncture. All follow-up sessions are with a registered physiotherapist.

All of our services are provided by registered physiotherapists (PT), registered massage therapists (RMT) or registered Chiropractors (DC). They are licensed and follow practice regulations set out by the College of Physiotherapist of Ontario or the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario. As such, our services are covered by insurance plans that offer physiotherapy, massage therapy and chiropractic benefits. You are expected to check with your insurance provider regarding the amount and frequency of coverage you are entitled for. The sooner you know this information, the better we can develop your program with respect to frequency and duration.
