PHYSIOTHERAPY at Montrose Physiotherapy & Massage in Abbotsford
Physiotherapy is the core of what we do here at Montrose Physiotherapy & Massage in Abbotsford. This rehabilitative specialty uses hands-on movements and mechanical force. Your trained physiotherapist uses specific techniques to heal injuries, reduce pain, and restore functional mobility.
Steps for Successful Physiotherapy
While your physiotherapist always tailors your treatment to you, physiotherapy treatments have a few common steps for everyone.
Step 1 – Physiotherapy Assessment
The first step is a comprehensive assessment. Your icensed, experienced physiotherapist thoroughly examines your injury or condition to get to the root of the problem. This step starts with a history of your medical situation and a conversation about how your condition impacts your lifestyle. Many pain patients remark that they finally feel “heard” after talking with their physiotherapist at Montrose Physiotherapy & Massage in Abbotsford.
Step 2 – Customized Recovery Treatment Plan
Every body is different, and everybody is different. The same diagnosis of an injury or condition impacts people’s lives differently. And different patients respond to the same therapy differently, too.
That’s why it is so important that your physiotherapist develops a unique, customized recovery treatment plan for you, your injury or condition, and your lifestyle. Your recovery plan includes several physiotherapy modalities to support healing and reduce pain. Therapies can include electrical stimulation, ultrasound, low-laser therapy and joint mobilization, joint manipulations, and IMS, among many other elements.
Your physiotherapist performs ongoing assessments as your recovery progresses. Your therapies and treatment schedule may change as you progress. Ultimately, our goal is to allow you to get back to your normally active lifestyle as quickly as possible.
Step 3 – Exercise and Education
You will likely have homework between your visits here at Montrose Physiotherapy & Massage in Abbotsford. Your physiotherapist develops a custom set of exercises that help speed healing, support mobility, and reduce how many visits you need.
Your physiotherapist will also ensure you receive the latest information and education about your condition. This educational process builds a foundation to reduce the recurrence of pain and injuries.
