Once we have an understanding of how your problem behaves through movement testing and symptom monitoring, we can establish our clinical impression and outline our goals.
We will then share with you targeted advice and provide you with appropriate exercises to manage and improve your condition.

Massage
Therapy
MASSAGE THERAPY
If you need relaxation, to reduce muscle tension or to decrease chronic pain, massage can increase your physical and emotional wellbeing on top of contributing to your overall quality of life. (Ontario Massage Therapy Association www.omta.com) Massage therapy is beneficial to people of all ages. When one receives a massage, their muscular flexibility increases and with the associated relaxation, their stress level decreases.
The most benefits are obtained with ill or injured clients suffering from acute to chronic conditions. Physiologically, we can see a decrease in swelling and inflammation, following a trauma but also an improved irrigation of tissues, which can alter the cycle of pain. Psychologically, massage can help depression as well as anxiety and by decreasing stress, can help decrease blood pressure.
Simply put, massage can decrease and manage pain coming from several sources and pathologies. For example, the following conditions can be treated by a massage therapist: Back and neck pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, dislocations, fractures, sprains, strains, headaches, post-surgery, muscular tension and spasms, sports injuries, tendinopathies, fibromyalgia, arthritis, pregnancy and whiplash.

SHOCKWAVE
SHOCKWAVE
RSWT is a mechanical energetic shockwave that is used to initiate an inflammation –like condition ( pro–inflammation) in the tissue that is being treated. This stimulation promotes physiological changes to the tissue and triggers healing, reparative and regenerative processes. It accelerates tissue repair and cell growth , analgesia and mobility restoration.
Supported by the research, it is effectively used to treat plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, patellar tendinopathy, lateral elbow tendinopathy and calcified tendinitis of the shoulder. Other conditions can be treated but the results can be varied.
Each treatment lasts 30 minutes per session . The shockwave itself is about 5-10 minutes. You will get education and exercises to combine with the treatment. You will need approximately 3-5 sessions.
