What is a physiotherapist’s expertise?


Physiotherapists study the science of movement. They learn how to pinpoint an injury’s root causes.


When should I go see a physiotherapist?


Think about getting physiotherapy if you have an injury, or chronic pain that affects how you function every day. A doctor may refer you to physiotherapy after surgery such as a hip replacement, or an event such as a heart attack or stroke.


What can I expect at a physiotherapy session?


1. The physiotherapist learns about your medical history.

2. The physiotherapist assesses and diagnoses your condition.

3. You receive a treatment plan that sets goals for you.

4. You are prescribed a course of exercises and any assistive devices needed.

What problems do physiotherapists treat?

Physiotherapists focus on both prevention and rehabilitation. Treatment can be for problems caused by injury, disease or disability. Here are some examples:

Neck and back pain caused by problems in the muscles and skeleton
Problems in the bones, joints, muscles and ligaments, such as arthritis and the after-effects of amputation
Lung problems such as asthma
Disability as a result of heart problems
Pelvic issues, such as bladder and bowel problems related to childbirth
Loss of mobility because of trauma to the brain or spine, or due to diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis
Fatigue, pain, swelling, stiffness and loss of muscle strength, for example during cancer treatment, or palliative care
