Exercise Therapy
Our exercise therapy programs aim at injury rehabilitation, injury prevention, back conditioning & care, flexibility & strength, cardiovascular improvement, recovery and regeneration, chronic pain management, weight management, stress management & relaxation, and sports-specific training.
The physiotherapist and exercise therapist together design a progressive exercise program specific to the type of injury in order to maintain the correction achieved during the physiotherapy treatment. This program is progressive and continually assessed to reflect the current stage of healing.
In all cases, our main objective is the patient’s early return to normal activity as well as education aimed at making the patient familiar with exercise routines to pursue in order to make the final recovery lasting. Monitored exercises, followed by a physiotherapist’s reassessment, are the best way of ensuring that the patient does not put any adverse stress through the already aggravated joints/soft tissue, thus facilitating permanent improvement.
Fees
Private insurance groups, including ICBC, may cover exercise therapy for patients with a valid claim. With this exception, exercise therapy sessions in our gym are billed at private rates. A one-on-one, 1 hour exercise session costs $80per hour.
