What to expect from your physiotherapy appointment

Physiotherapy Assessment and Treatment

LiveActive Sport Medicine physiotherapists complete thorough assessments, arrive at a clinical diagnosis, and design individualized therapeutic exercises to optimize strength, range of motion, and function aligned with their patients’ goals. LiveActive offers personalized physical therapy programs for each patient in a one-on-one capacity. This allows our team to focus solely on improving the overall health and wellness of our patients by providing optimal care for maximum benefit. At your initial visit, your physiotherapist will assess your current condition and help establish an individualized treatment plan that may include manual therapy, acupuncture, exercises and stretches, or include other approaches for care. Your first appointment is used to establish the foundation for recovery and will always include preliminary treatment during that appointment.

Acupuncture for Pain Relief

Acupuncture uses targeted puncturing to ease tension to help decrease pain and increase quality of life. Some therapists will use a technique call neuro-functional acupuncture to stimulate the nervous system to help with healing. Other techniques, like dry needling, are beneficial when treating some conditions like tennis elbow. Needling can be a powerful approach for easing chronic and persistent pain that results from muscle tension. Your physiotherapist will discuss how acupuncture is safe and effective and will commonly be used in combination with exercise rehabilitation.

Shockwave Therapy

LiveActive Physios are trained to use Shockwave Therapy. This treatment is often used to treat specific conditions, including plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, shoulder tendinopathies, and other tendon related injuries. Most conditions being treated with Shockwave require a plan of care that includes weekly treatment for 3-5 visits.
