Experienced Physiotherapy solutions for your aches, pains and rehab needs.
Physiotherapy
Derek the Physio will assess you using detailed history-taking and specific physical tests and measures, such as flexibility or range of motion. He will then interpret the assessment findings and use clinical reasoning to establish a diagnosis. Together, you will explore your current abilities and functional needs so treatments that are consistent with your goals and general health can be planned. Derek will guide you through the process while incorporating approaches and techniques supported by the best evidence available.
Custom Orthotics
Alleviate pain, correct your foot function, and stay active because your foot health and mobility are essential. Our orthotic assessment process starts by understanding your lifestyle. Next, we use a biomechanical assessment gait analysis to better understand how the mechanics in your feet are affecting the alignment in your legs and the rest of your body.
