Physiotherapy
The registered physiotherapists at WSM offer expertise in assessing and treating musculoskeletal injuries. Each physiotherapist strives to return their patients to optimal function and performance. Through continuing education, and certifications, WSM's physiotherapists pride themselves at being on the leading edge of the latest innovations and techniques to ensure that their patients receive the highest standard of care.
Waterloo Sports Medicine has been treating athletes and active members of the community for over 30 years. At WSM, physiotherapy focuses, not just on healing and pain reduction, but also on evaluating the specific demands your activity place on your body. Physiotherapists at WSM know what it takes to 'get you back in the game', they provide you with treatment solutions that facilitate a safe and rapid return to your activity.
Our physiotherapists use thorough assessment of the musculoskeletal and neurological systems including sport and activity-based assessment techniques, to get a comprehensive understanding of your injury and/or dysfunction. Based on the assessment findings, a treatment plan will be tailored to meet your goals and ensure the earliest possible recovery from injury and return to activity.
Our physiotherapists use a number of treatment techniques, including mobilization/manipulation, myofascial release, acupuncture, electrotherapeutic modalities, stretching, and therapeutic and activity-specific exercises. The end goal is not just to reduce pain and create healing, but also to ensure that you have a safe and successful return to activity at the highest possible level.
