Frequently Asked Questions
What types of injuries do you treat with shockwave therapy?
At Back in Action, we offer shockwave therapy for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, rotator cuff tendinitis, tennis elbow, patellar tendonitis, chronic low-back pain, hip bursitis, shin splints, trigger points, and more. This non-invasive treatment is designed to reduce pain, promote tissue healing and collagen production, and improve mobility
How does concussion rehabilitation work at your clinic?
Our sports-titled physiotherapists specialize in concussion management using a graduated return-to-play protocol. The process includes thorough evaluation of symptoms (headache, dizziness, balance, cognitive issues), vestibular/ocular/manual therapy, and structured progression through physical and cognitive stages to ensure safe, full recovery before returning to sport .
What should I expect on my first physiotherapy visit?
In your initial session, we perform a comprehensive assessment of your injury history, movement patterns, posture, balance, and functional abilities. From there, we’ll co-create a personalized treatment plan using hands-on manual therapy, dry needling, electrotherapy, therapeutic exercise, and more, all focused on pain relief, restoring movement, and preventing recurrence .
Do you offer direct billing to insurance providers?
Yes. We partner with many extended health benefits providers and offer direct billing for many services. We recommend confirming your coverage details prior to booking, and we streamline the process so you can focus on your recovery.
How do your manual and manipulative physiotherapy techniques benefit me?
Our clinicians trained in manipulative physiotherapy use joint and soft tissue mobilizations, spinal manipulations, and tailored exercises to treat underlying musculoskeletal dysfunctions. These techniques provide evidence-based, drug-free relief for conditions like low back pain, improving joint mobility, function, and speed of recovery.
What types of massage therapy do you offer?
Our Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) provide a variety of techniques, including Swedish massage, neuromuscular therapy/myofascial release, trigger point therapy, sports massage, and muscle-energy techniques (MET). These treatments help alleviate pain, reduce muscle tension, expedite recovery, and support wellness and performance goals.
Can you design a rehab program for me to do at home or in the pool?
Definitely. We create individualized rehabilitation programs tailored to your needs, which can include exercises to be done at home, in the gym, or aquatic therapy. These programs complement in-clinic manual treatment and help you regain strength, mobility, and function.
Do you treat sports-related injuries and help improve athletic performance?
Yes. Our sports physiotherapists have advanced training in sports injury assessment, rehabilitation, injury prevention, technique analysis, and performance enhancement. We work with athletes at all levels to restore optimal function and support long-term athletic goal.
