Physical Therapy

Our Hands-on Approach


Many patients arrive at their first physical therapy appointment expecting to receive hot packs, ultrasound, and instructions on how to complete a series of exercises. These modalities are warranted in many instances, and most therapists would agree that exercise is needed to help restore muscle imbalances. However, many therapists now approach the restoration of function from a different perspective. These therapists are interested in why a muscle isn’t functioning properly and view exercise not as the driving mode of recovery but as a complement to manual therapy. 

Hands-On Physical Therapy (also called manual therapy) focuses on the cause of the problem not the symptoms. Our physical therapists combine manual therapy in conjunction with the science of exercise to reduce pain, improve the patient's function, and increase their ability to manage the problems at home, work and with daily activities.

Massage Therapy


massage1.jpgExperts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. While eliminating anxiety and pressure altogether in this fast-paced world is unrealistic, massage can help manage stress. This translates into:


Decreased anxiety

Enhanced sleep quality

Greater energy

Improved concentration

Increased circulation

Reduced fatigue

 

At the Advanced Wellness Centre, our certified massage therapists are skilled at a variety of massage techniques including: swedish, deep tissue, therapeutic, mother's massage, sports, and hot rock.

Remember, just because massage feels like a pampering treat doesn’t mean it is any less therapeutic. Consider massage appointments a necessary piece of your health and wellness plan, and work with your practitioner to establish a treatment schedule that best meets your needs.
