Physio for Adults
No, we don’t “just treat kids”, we welcome patients of all ages!
Whether it’s a sports injury, a motor vehicle accident, or even post-surgery, we love to work with adults and seniors too. But fair warning, we plan to make your treatment just as fun!
“They are the complete package - assessment, education, instruction and continuous follow up! Thank you!”
— Client review
While every treatment plan is personalized, here are some examples of common treatments you might see at Summerside Physiotherapy as part of your care:
-
"Hands on" therapy to help relieve pain and muscle spasm, and help restore joint mobility. A must for many orthopedic problems!
-
The proper home exercise program makes all the difference in maintaining your improvement. Expect a little “homework” after every session.
-
The most important part of any treatment plan. The more you know about your condition, the more you can do to help with the healing and prevent it coming back!
-
Whether it’s using Acupuncture and the philosophies of traditional Chinese medicine, or the muscle release techniques of Functional Dry Needling (FDN), needling can be a fast and effective way of treating stubborn problems.
-
In some cases, certain conditions such as tendonitis, sprains, and strains can really benefit from the pain relieving and anti-inflammatory effects of electrotherapy.
