Physiotherapy

What is physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that specializes in restoring movement, reducing pain and improving physical function using evidence-based techniques such as manual therapy, exercise programs and education. Physiotherapists use a manual approach and tailor treatments to specific injuries, chronic conditions, or functional limitations. At Strive Health and Performance our team of experts provide personalized physiotherapy in Coquitlam and Burnaby to help you recover and achieve your best physical health.

FAQs

How often do I need physiotherapy?

The number of physiotherapy sessions depends on the severity of your condition, your response to treatment and your long-term goals. Acute injuries may need more frequent sessions initially, while chronic conditions or maintenance care may need weekly or bi-weekly visits. Consistent attendance and adherence to home exercises makes a big difference.
