Physiotherapy Is Not Only for Back Pain

Many people think physiotherapy is only for back pain or sports injuries. While physiotherapy is commonly used for those concerns, it can also help with many other pain, mobility, strength, and movement-related conditions.

At Total Wellness Rehab Physiotherapy & Massage Clinic in Brampton, patients visit for a wide range of concerns, from lower back pain and sciatica to shoulder pain, knee pain, foot pain, accident injuries, and work-related discomfort.

Common Conditions Physiotherapy May Help

Physiotherapy may be appropriate for:

  • Lower back pain

  • Neck pain and stiffness

  • Sciatica-like leg pain

  • Shoulder pain and rotator cuff concerns

  • Knee pain

  • Ankle sprains

  • Foot and heel pain

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Sports injuries

  • Work-related injuries

  • Postural pain

  • Motor vehicle accident injuries

  • Post-surgical rehabilitation

  • Balance and mobility concerns

What Happens During an Assessment?

Your physiotherapist will ask about your symptoms, medical history, work duties, daily activities, and goals. They may assess your range of motion, strength, posture, balance, flexibility, and functional movement.

This helps determine what may be contributing to your symptoms and what type of treatment may be appropriate.

What Treatment Can Include

Physiotherapy treatment may include hands-on care, therapeutic exercises, stretching, strengthening, posture correction, movement retraining, home exercises, and education.

At Total Wellness Rehab, advanced modalities such as Shockwave Therapy, Laser Therapy, TECAR Therapy, and SIS Therapy may also be considered when appropriate.
